You can't do a reverse image search directly on Tinder. Instead, use tools like Google Image, SwindlerBuster, PimEyes, ProFaceFinder, TinEye, or Social Catfish.
I'll show you how to do it step by step below.
1. Reverse Image Search with Google Images
Follow these four steps to reverse image search a Tinder photo using Google:
- Take a screenshot of the person’s picture.
- Crop out the Tinder interface.
- Transfer the image to your desktop.
- Drag and drop it into Google Images.
If their Tinder photos were once public on Facebook, Google, or Instagram, you might find them.
Even if they haven't linked social media, using the same pictures elsewhere can still reveal their profiles. If the image belongs to a model or someone else, that will show up too.
2. Use SwindlerBuster Dating Image Search
Upload the photo to SwindlerBuster Dating Image Search, and it will show where the image appears online, including Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, and other dating apps.
SwindlerBuster scans the image, creates a unique fingerprint, and finds matches—even if the photo is edited.
3. Using PimEyes.com to search for an image of Tinder
PimEyes is often more effective than Google Images because it finds every online photo of a face and provides direct links to those images.
Here’s how to use it:
- Take a screenshot of the person’s picture.
- Crop out the Tinder interface.
- Go to PimEyes.com and upload the image.
That’s it. You can do everything from your phone—no extra steps are needed.
4. Use ProFaceFinder to Search a Tinder Image
ProFaceFinder helps you find where an image appears online, including dating apps and social media, using advanced face recognition to detect matches—even if the photo is edited—so you can spot fake profiles and stay safe.
Here’s how to use it:
- Take a screenshot of the Tinder person’s picture.
- Crop out the Tinder interface.
- Go to ProFaceFinder.com and upload the image.
That’s it. The tool will scan the web and show where the images and faces appear.
5. Reverse Image Search a Tinder image through tineye.com
It’s the same procedure: screenshot, crop, go to tineye.com, upload the picture, and find the results. You can see the searches found on Google, Bing, Yandex, and Baidu.
6. Socialcatfish.com Search Image Bar
SocialCatfish.com also lets you search images. If other tools don’t work, it’s worth a try. Just upload the picture and see if it finds any matches.
How to Check if Someone is Fake or Real
Besides reverse image search, you can look up their name, job title, and workplace to learn more.
Here’s how:
- Go to Google (google.com).
- Search their name, job title, and workplace in the search bar.
- Check the results and see what comes up.
If you don’t know their workplace, search their name + job title instead. If you find their full name and job title, try LinkedIn for more details.
Why do this? Because they could be anyone—a catfish, scammer, or even a fake identity. People can say anything online, but with a little searching, you can verify their story.
