Using Python to Win on Tinder — For FREE!

tinder

Tinder is one of the most popular dating apps in the world, with millions of users swiping left and right every day to find their perfect match. Although Tinder does not provide an official API for developers, there are unofficial Python libraries available to help you interact with the app. Pynder is one such library that allows you to access Tinder’s API using Python. In this article, we will explore how to use Pynder to access Tinder’s API, authenticate with Tinder, and retrieve data such as matches and messages.

Installation: Before we begin, we need to install Pynder. Pynder can be installed using pip, the Python package manager, by running the following command in your terminal:

pip install pynder

Authentication: To use Pynder, you need to authenticate with Tinder using your Facebook credentials. Pynder requires a Facebook access token and Facebook ID to authenticate with Tinder. You can obtain your Facebook access token and Facebook ID by following these steps:

1. Go to the Facebook Developer website and create a new app.
2. Navigate to the App Dashboard and copy your App ID and App Secret.
3. Generate a user access token by clicking on the "Get User Access Token" button in the Graph API Explorer.
4. Select the permissions you want to grant the app and click "Generate Access Token".
5. Copy the access token and paste it into a text editor for later use.
6. Obtain your Facebook ID by visiting the Find My Facebook ID website and entering your Facebook profile URL.

Now that you have your Facebook access token and Facebook ID, you can use Pynder to authenticate with Tinder. The following code demonstrates how to authenticate with Tinder using Pynder:

from pynder import Session

session = Session(facebook_token='your_facebook_token', facebook_id='your_facebook_id')
session.auth_token = 'your_tinder_access_token'

Retrieving Matches: Now that we are authenticated with Tinder, we can start retrieving data from our account. Let's start by retrieving our matches. The following code demonstrates how to retrieve your matches using Pynder:

from pynder import Session

session = Session(facebook_token='your_facebook_token', facebook_id='your_facebook_id')
session.auth_token = 'your_tinder_access_token'

matches = session.matches()

for match in matches:
    print(match.name)

The code above retrieves your matches and prints their names to the console. Pynder returns each match as a Match object, which contains information about the match such as their name, age, and photos.

Retrieving Messages: Now that we have retrieved our matches, let's retrieve our messages. The following code demonstrates how to retrieve your messages using Pynder:

from pynder import Session

session = Session(facebook_token='your_facebook_token', facebook_id='your_facebook_id')
session.auth_token = 'your_tinder_access_token'

matches = session.matches()

for match in matches:
    messages = match.messages
    for message in messages:
        print(message.body)

The code above retrieves your matches, and for each match, it retrieves the messages and prints their bodies to the console. Pynder returns each message as a Message object, which contains information about the message such as the sender, recipient, and body.

Remember to use caution when using unofficial APIs or scraping sites, as it could lead to the suspension or termination of your account.
