Changing your match preferences

Pause matching, set distance and quality, and choose how often you hear about matches.

You can control how matching works for you.

1. Open Matches and press Match preferences.
2. Change the settings you want.
3. Press Save preferences.

The settings are:

• Pause matching: stops new suggestions and notifications until you turn it off again.
• Maximum distance and Minimum match quality, under Distance & quality.
• Category interests: tick the categories you want matches for. Leave them all unticked to match on every category.
• Match digest frequency: Daily, Fortnightly, Monthly or Never.
• Hot match alerts: be told straight away about very strong matches.
• Mutual match alerts: be told when a match works both ways.

Distance settings only work if your profile has a location.
