As with any type of communication, there are two sides to every icebreaker: the sender and the recipient. Would you like to know more about how this feature works? Then take a look at the following explanations.

Sending icebreakers – How it works:

Write a succinct icebreaker using no more than 250 characters or record a voice message. Try to be funny, original, or charming. You can also respond to the information on the person's profile. Anything is better than "Hi, how are you?" !

(Statistically speaking, very long chat requests and requests like "Hi" or "Hi, how are you?" are least likely to get a response. So feel free to be a bit more creative.)

Another top tip: Pay attention to grammar and spelling! Bloopers and slip-ups can quickly cost you your chance.

Receiving icebreakers – How we notify you:

When someone sends you an icebreaker, you'll get a push notification. The incoming icebreaker is also displayed in a special way in the app.

You will see a list of all your pending icebreakers under "New Icebreakers". In this list, you will only see the profile picture of the person who sent the oldest icebreaker, and can only respond to that person. If you have received multiple Icebreakers, you can open them one after the other to discover the people who have shown an interest in you.

When you open an icebreaker, you can click on the profile picture to see all of the sender's other pictures without visiting the profile.
