NEW DATING APP HEAVENLY SINFUL IS LIKE TINDER BUT CUTS THE CRAP

THE DEBRIEF: NEW DATING APP HEAVENLY SINFUL TAKES THE CONCEPT OF TINDER AND MAKES THINGS A LOT MORE STRAIGHTFORWARD…

The problem with Tinder is, nobody knows where anybody else stands.
Have they swiped left for a one night stand? Would they be up for turning the sex into a regular thing complete with spooning? Do they just want to have a drink and take it slow? Unless they message you a picture of their penis, sometimes people’s intentions are a bit opaque. Like the tights they try and rip off while you were under the impression that coffee really did mean coffee and would you mind if you made the last tube? Great, thanks.

Enter Heavenly Sinful, a new Tinder-esque app with the added level of being able to ignore someone if they’re not floating your boat or specify whether you’re feeling Heavenly (“hey let’s meet and see what happens”) or Sinful (“hey let’s meet and see whether we want to shag”). Yes there’s an extra swiping option and yes, it’s going to make things a lot more simple. If the person you’ve wanted to get Heavenly with feels the same about you, then you’ve got yourself an angelic match. With Sinful, you’ve got yourself a bonkfest. It’s sort of win-win, really.

On top of this, there’s also a handy map where you can peruse the whereabouts of Heavenly or Sinful people according to their location – and also collect points so you’re able to send voice messages or, erm, videos of yourself. The “erm” stems from the fact that this will be so, so easy to do when mega drunk and sending a vid of you headbanging to Rihanna to that hot Sinful dude across the road just feels like the right thing to do.

Anyway, at least you don’t have to waste loads of time trying to figure out whether they want to go for pizza or bang you before you can say “pizza”. And vice versa.
