Why you should update your phone number in Tinder?

- You may have changed phone numbers and want to continue using Tinder with your new number.
- You may have accidentally entered the wrong phone number when you created your account and want to correct it.
- Updating your phone number can also help improve the security of your account. By associating your account with a phone number that only you have access to, you can help prevent unauthorized access to your account.

Will I be able to see someone who might have blocked my previous number?
If someone has blocked your previous phone number on Tinder, and you update your phone number in your Tinder account, you will not be able to see that person’s profile or communicate with them on the app.
Blocking someone on Tinder means that the person will not be able to see your profile or communicate with you on the app. If you are blocked, you will not be able to see the person’s profile, send them messages, or swipe on their profile.
If you update your phone number and are still unable to see or communicate with someone on Tinder, it is possible that they have blocked your new phone number as well. In this case, you will need to respect their decision and refrain from attempting to contact them through the app.
