How Mutuals work
The My Mutuals team ·
A Mutual is the simplest idea in the app. It forms when two people have liked each other.
Liking someone
There are two ways to look. Swipe shows you one full-screen profile at a time: right to like, left to pass. Explorer is a scrolling list that you can narrow down with a Filter.
Likes and passes are unlimited on every plan, and your passes are private.
Where to find your Mutuals
Open the Likes tab. It has five lists: Viewed you and You viewed under Views, and Liked you, You liked and Mutuals under Likes. On Free, you’ll see the first page of each. Plus and Premium show the full lists and let you open profiles from them.
What to do next
Say hello. Chats are one-to-one text, with replies, reactions and read receipts. You can reply in an existing conversation on any plan. Starting a new conversation needs Plus or Premium, and on Free your messages are held until you upgrade.
If you’d like to hear only from people you’ve both said yes to, Plus and Premium let you allow chats from Mutuals only.
A Mutual isn’t a promise
A Mutual means you both liked what you saw. It doesn’t mean you owe each other anything. You can take your time, and you can block or report someone at any point. If you decide to meet, read our safety tips first.
