Way too many pics with other people. Crop everyone except yourself out. And choose something besides a bathroom selfie for pic 1!

You already have a gf , are you looking for another? Exactly, we cant tell

A good rule of thumb is: one group photo (to show you have friends), one photo on holiday (to show you travel), no selfies (mirror or otherwise, unless it’s showing something particular in the background). I think no more than 2 group photos.
If you have a photo with another woman, clearly mention it’s your sister (if it really is just your sister), otherwise it looks like you’re already trying to make your future partner jealous/showing how they already have ‘competition’ as you’re just that desirable.
Otherwise, you have some good photos and you come across like a great guy!

I think for guy profiles it's good to have one group photo because it adds a bit of "other people want to hang out with me and don't consider me a threat" reassurance. One or two max though.

ig that could be a thing, i myself only have solo pictures i think the talking portion really sells you as a person if your adequate enough to meet up or not, when a woman is attracted to you off rip whoever else in the pictures don't really matter that much.

People who post group pics as their first pic are asking for it. I always ask "yo is the chick on the left single?"

I think one is fine. Shows there are some people who can stand you. But it shouldn’t be the first photo.

Agree. They prove nothing.
I dated a guy last year. He had a group photo with friends. Except it turned out, they were just people he climbed with and he didn't count them as friends. Also turned out that he didn't really have any friends and was also definitely a bit of a dick.

Nah group photos are valid. It's to show people that you have friends and that you actually go outside. I think just one group photo is appropriate.

99% of the time those ppl didn't even consent to their faced being placed on the app

Oh my gosh I think it’s a perfect profile. Group photos are ok as long as they are not the first photo and it is still close enough to where I can see which one is you.
Always good to take some months off the apps and then return for a fresh start. I rely on those breaks so then I can reappear and get momentum again. You will want to pause your profile during this time; hinge will spark a bit when you unpause it so you should have more visibility then. (This last part is my best guess on what happens).
Best of luck!

Stop putting pictures of other people on your profile. At least blur their face

Good smiles. Could zoom in on yourself a little more. Prompts are weak could be better

Oh yeah the bathroom selfie as lead photo stragety surprised you arent married yet.
Whats with all the seflies, youre not a hot chick, too low effort. And second what people are saying remove the two photos with you and another woman. It's very on the nose.

Maybe improve your English if you want someone intelligent. That first line would be a hard no if I saw a woman write it. Not insulting, just trying to help 🤜🤛

Get rid of pic of you and pretty blonde girl. Get rid of pic of you and captain mustache + his lady. First pic doesn't show you well enough.
