You have seen something very funny, ridiculous or annoying on Tinder and want to save it for yourself for the future by taking a screenshot from the Tinder screen? Or share a Tinder screenshot in your favorite Tinder subreddit or just send it to a friend?

But should you do it? Does Tinder send a notification to the profile where you have taken the screenshots? Let’s find out from this Tinder tutorial post. We will also share with you how you can take a screenshot on Tinder whether you use an iOS or an Android device.

Does Tinder notify screenshots?

The short answer is no, Tinder does not send any notification when you take Tinder screenshots. This can change in the future and we will update this article if this changes.

Tinder Profile vs Conversation Screenshot notification

It doesn’t really matter whether you take the screenshot on a profile picture or on a Tinder conversation, Tinder doesn’t send any notification.

The word “screenshot” cannot even be found in their Terms of Service, so you don’t have to worry about your profile getting banned when you take a screenshot. It is not against their term of Service.

Where to find funny Tinder screenshots?

My go-to place when I want to have some Tinder entertainment is the tinder Reddit subreddit where you can find a lot of funny or obnoxious screenshots from Tinder.

Hopefully, you will never find yourself there or even if you do, your profile will be anonymized.

How to take screenshots on Tinder?

It is extremely easy to take screenshots on Tinder. The exact technique doesn’t change much whether you use an iOS or an Android device:

Take Tinder screenshots on an iOS device

If you are using an older Apple device, you have to press and hold the power button and your home button at the same time for a couple of seconds. There will be some kind of animation to indicate that the screenshot has been taken.

When you are using a newer iPhone which doesn’t have a Home button, you can check out this video on how you can take a screenshot on Tinder.

Take Tinder screenshots on an Android device

It is pretty similar to an Android device. You have to press and hold the home button and the power button at the same time for a couple of seconds.

If this doesn’t work, or you don’t have a Home button, then google “how to take a screenshot on” and your phone brand name and your phone type and probably Google is going to help you with taking a screenshot.

A quick note on taking screenshots on Tinder

It is true that Tinder doesn’t send any notification to other people when you take a screenshot and it is not even against their terms of service. But this doesn’t mean you should.

It is recommended to hide her name and blur out her face if it can be detected when you upload her picture to Reddit or any other forum.
