Seeing OkCupid likes, or rather not being able to see them, is a feature that people who use the app for free don’t like. This feature, which is available for a fee, is usually not very useful. Therefore, users are wondering how to see likes on OkCupid for free. This article contains some tips to help you with that.
What is OkCupid?
OkCupid is an app that uses a combination of algorithm-based matching and user-generated questions to find potential matches. As one of the first dating sites to use a mathematical matching system to match users, OkCuopid has gained a reputation as a very effective platform for people looking for relationships. Users create a profile with information about themselves and what they are looking for in a partner. The site then uses this data to suggest matches based on compatibility. You can use OkCupid through a website and mobile app.
How Do Likes on OkCupid Work?
Your likes on OkCupid are a way to show interest in someone. When you like someone on the platform, they receive a notification letting them know. Then, if they like you back, the two of you are matched.
Liking someone is the best way to start a conversation. When someone likes you, you receive a message that they want to get to know you. When you like someone, you get a message that you want to get to know them better.
Also, when you like someone, they become visible in the Your Matches tab. This gives you the opportunity to check their profile and start a conversation. With this feature you can quickly see who interests you and start a relationship.
Finally, OkCupid offers you the ability to send a Super Like. A Super Like shows that you are particularly interested in someone. Super Liking someone is a way of saying that you want to get to know them better.
Best Ways to See OkCupid Likes
See OkCupid Likes from Computer
Here are the steps on how to see who likes you on OkCupid through the Chrome browser on your computer.
- Open the Chrome browser on your desktop computer and go to OkCupid.com.
- Click on the little star at the top of the screen. There you should see a number showing how many profiles have liked you and that you haven’t swiped left or hard yet.
- From here you can only see empty photos. So first right-click on the profile photo you want to blur and select ‘Inspect item’.
- A window with the front-end code of the website should appear at the bottom or right of the screen. Click here and then search for blur and find the pixels.
- Reduce the number of pixels to zero or close to zero. This will make the space in the photos disappear and you will be able to see all the profiles you like on OkCupid for free on your phone.
Doing this doesn’t mean you’ll start chatting with the people whose photos you see, nor will you be able to swipe them. But you will be able to see the profiles you like without paying for an OkCupid subscription.
See OkCupid Likes on Android
If you don’t have a desktop computer and want to do this on your phone, you can do it almost identically on Android phones.
One extra thing you need to do to make these tips work is to download an app that allows you to “inspect element” on your phone. You can do it with an app called Element Inspector – HTML Web, which you can get for free from the Google Play Store.
Now we can move on to the steps you need to take to see who likes you on OkCupid:
- Install the app mentioned above on your Android phone.
- Now open this app and go to your mobile browser and type www.OkCupid.com in the address bar.
- Tap the little gold star at the top of the screen. If there is any number there, it means how many profiles have liked you that you haven’t swiped on yet.
- For now you can see the photos blank, so enable the downloaded app Code item mode.
- A window with the website’s front-end code will pop up at the bottom of your screen, just like on your desktop screen. Search for blur here and find pixels.
- Leave the number of pixels allocated to zero or close to zero. This way the photos will lose their spaces and you will see all OkCupid profiles that like you.
