Does deleting the Hinge app also delete your profile?

No, deleting the Hinge app from your phone does not delete your profile. When someone removes the app, their profile remains active on the platform. To completely delete a profile on Hinge, one must go through the proper steps within the app to remove it permanently. This typically involves going into the app settings and finding the option to delete the account. If only the app is deleted and the profile is left active, matches can still see the profile and send messages, but one won't receive notifications or have any way to respond unless the app is reinstalled and logged in again. Therefore, it's important for users to properly delete their accounts if they no longer wish to appear on Hinge.
