If you use Tinder, you may have seen a blue star next to someone's name while looking through your matches. If you see a blue star by someone's name, that person has given you a Super Like. You also may have seen the blue star (Super Like) button between the green heart (like) and red "x" (pass) buttons when scrolling through profiles. Super Likes are a step up from a normal like, and you should use one when you find someone that you're really interested in. Keep reading to learn more about the blue star on Tinder and what a Super Like means.
