Tinder claims that user safety is a priority, therefore aiming for an impossible return to the app for those who get banned.
This means Tinder will recognize a lot of your information after you get banned. Does that include your device, phone number, and the like? Let’s find out!
1. Does Tinder ban your device? For how long?
Tinder recognizes your device since it collects and retains technical data which includes your device ID data.
It retains this data for as long as it’s necessary to prevent you – a banned user – from using the app again.
Put in simple words, Tinder remembers your device ID, and when you’re banned from the app, that device – be it phone, computer, or tablet – will be recognized immediately.
Can you unban your device from Tinder, really?
Tinder bans are permanent. They’ll recognize your device no matter what. However, there’s a guide on how you can get back on the Tinder app with the same device or a different one.
These are some things you can do to unban, or well, to get a way back on Tinder:
– You can try sending a ban appeal to Tinder.
If you feel like Tinder didn’t have much of a reason to ban you, you can try
- sending Tinder a ban appeal at help@gotinder.com, or questions@gotinder.com.
- submit a request to Tinder, where you get the chance to politely address the fact that you were banned and that you’d like another shot on the app.
- file a complaint at Matchgroup BBB (Better Business Bureau).
– Use an entirely different device.
Use a device you didn’t use on Tinder before.
If you used the app on your phone, and you got banned, it’s time to use the laptop if you’re trying to get back on the app.
– Change your device ID with a factory reset.
A factory reset changes your device ID and turns your device’s system the way it was before you used it – it makes it as if it was brand new and unused. This way Tinder won’t recognize it.
Usually, you can operate a factory reset on your device by finding it in the settings of your device. Make sure you backup things you don’t want to lose from your device.
2. Does Tinder ban your phone number too?
Tinder does ban your phone number when it bans your account and there’s nothing you can do to stop it.
Your phone number is part of the Account Data, which is data that Tinder collects the moment you create an account on Tinder.
Of course, this data too will be retained by Tinder for as long as it’s needed to stop you from entering the app again.
How to go about a banned phone number on Tinder?
Unless you write a ban appeal to Tinder and they decide to let you back on the app, it’ll be impossible to get back on the app with the same phone number.
Tinder takes the violation of its terms very seriously, so getting your phone number unbanned from Tinder is not possible.
You need a new number that hasn’t been used before on Tinder.
Since Tinder remembers your phone number, you’ll need a new number. Here’s how you get a new phone number for Tinder:
Step 1: datingzest.com > shop > Tinder Sms Phone Verification
Step 2: Purchase the number.
Step 3: Copy-paste the confirmation code, and you’re good to go!
Besides Tinderophone – a phone number exclusively designed for Tinder – you can buy a new SIM or ask a close friend to use their phone number for the sign up process for your new account on Tinder.
Important note: You can get in trouble if you use a free disposable number!
The rumors that Tinder bans new accounts with new phones and phone numbers are true. Here’s why!
Disposable numbers (burner phone numbers like Google Voice) are free to use for those who don’t want to use their phone number when creating a Tinder account.
They’re free, they’re easy to access, and anyone can use them and this is the problem. Anyone can use those numbers, and they’ll still appear on the lists while people are using them.
The previous user of that number could’ve got banned, and now the next user (you) gets banned because of that.
3. Does Tinder recognize other information such as Apple ID, email address, IP Address, credit card, or photos?
Again, Tinder will recognize a lot of data from your account, including technical data, account data, and others. Such data include (but is not limited to):
– IP address. This is part of the technical data that Tinder collects and retains. Therefore, Tinder recognizes your IP address among other information.
– Apple ID and Google Play account. This information is recognized by Tinder through technical data. So, your Apple ID or Google Play account will be recognized too.
– Email address. Your email address will be stored in the Account Data department, and will be recognized by Tinder the moment you use the same email address on the app again.
– Photos. Tinder collects and retains Face Geometry Data if you do a photo verification on the app. This means your face will be recognized by Tinder if you previously did a photo verification.
– Credit card details. Another data Tinder collects and retains is the Purchase Data. Tinder keeps transaction data for 10 years. This data includes credit card information. Therefore, this information is also recognized among other information you may use while making a purchase on Tinder.
– Social media networks. Tinder also collects Social Media Data which includes Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Apple, and the like. If you link your Tinder account with your social media, Tinder will recognize them when you’re banned.
Creating a new account on Tinder after a ban is difficult, though not impossible!
As you can see, there’s a lot of information Tinder collects and retains to prevent its banned users from reentering the app.
The workaround is quite difficult since it takes a lot of caution and effort, though it’s not impossible. To wrap everything up, a few things you could keep in your pocket before creating your new Tinder account after a ban:
- Don’t use the same device (unless you factory reset it or use Tinder via web).
- Create a new apple ID or Google Play before downloading Tinder, then switch to your old one after the download.
- Change your IP address by using a different WiFi or mobile data.
- Use a new phone number and different email address.
- Don’t connect the same social media to your new account.
- Make big changes in your pictures, or use completely new ones.
- Use Tinder responsibly, otherwise you’ll get banned again and you’ll end up with too many bans and fake Tinder phone numbers!
Taking all those into consideration, giving the same information that you gave in your previous (now banned) Tinder account will get you banned again.
Get your new phone number, new information, new account, a decently fun bio, and start fresh!
Good luck,
Liam
Hello Liam I tried getting a new account after mine got banned using another phone number and another device can I now log onto my new account on my previously banned Device? Or will it also get banned
Hi Sandra,
Just to confirm, You already have a new account created, just want to login into a phone device which been previously banned before?
We do not recommend it because you might be banned or even if you are able to log in shadowban hammer is waiting.
Kind regards,
Liam
Did you try to login previously banned Device before with new account?
How many days or month before to open my Tinder,and how to make new tinder if im still banned.
Hi Genrose,
No need to wait a single day, just be careful while opening a new Tinder account.
Make sure it’s a new phone number, new email, new pics etc… do NOT use old information.
Regards
if i factory reset my phone number, new email address and phone number and new picture, will it still work for me , with same phone, if i do factory reset
Hello there, if i use a new device, phone number, email, apple id yet after downloading the app and making an account switch back to my previous apple id that had been signed up when i got banned, will i get banned again when i log in? I am wrongfully banned 🙁
It’s good
Hi how do you change your device ID? On an apple phone?
I was banned for no reason, and I cannot get a reason why or atleast a temporary banning. I changed my email, my number, my apple Id
Hello Liam,
I intend to change my phone number & factory reset my phone & change device ID should I be able to return to tinder app please let me know.
Thanks.
Hi Saully,
Yes, you are able to get back on the Tinder app but you need a new Apple ID while setting up the iPhone.
Due when you enter your same Apple ID it restores your info cache data and other things. Set up new apple ID, Download Tinder then you can restore into old Apple ID.
Kind regards,
Liam
Hi Liam,
I’ve had a new (burner) device associated with a new account linked to a (burner) Google voice number for a while now and it’s been working. I just got a new cell phone and I’m wondering whether it’ll be safe to log in from the new device once my old number is ported to it along with my phone plan. I’d be giving Tinder my burner number and separate email address, but I want to be sure it won’t somehow recognize either the Google account associated with all the Android software or my old phone number – even though I’m not planning on telling tinder about either of those. It should only be able to recognize the phone number I use to log in and the actual IMEI number(s) from the device(s) I used the banned account on, right? Can it see what number the new device typically uses if I don’t tell it?
Thanks for posting this – I’m really not eager to go through making a whole new account again, but I’m certainly sick of having to use two separate devices!

So I’ve purchased a new iphone. I want to keep the same number but I’m banned. However If I use my friends number on my app will that work? As in I get the code off his phone. Please let me know that would be much appreciated.
So I’m gonna get a new phone, email and number. Do I need to wait to make my new email address on a device that wasn’t banned? Or can I make a new one on my current phone?
Thank you.
I take several pictures at the same time. If I don’t use the same picture but use a different photo taken around the same time that looks almost identical but is a different picture taken at the same time. Is that ok?
If I get new iphone and log in to my apple id but I will use different phone number and email for registration on Tinder, will it ban me by knowing what else do I have in phone (mails apps where I’m logged in with “banned” mail on tinder?
oh I wasnt reading comments my bad
Hello, this of for your tips.
I started an account with a new phone/SIM card, email and only using 5g (no wifi)
Everything fine because is everything new.
The thing is I’m afraid to put my pics, older on tinder no, probably some with this other phone but: they could recognize me the same?
Also doubting about purchasing a plus/boost, I read about pyypl create virtual Mastercard, so you have feedbacks?
Thanks in advance
