By having more access to information about people who are interested in meeting up with you, it will give you an upper hand when it comes to selecting someone who has things in common with you and who looks good on paper as well – the idea is that the better a person's profile is, the less chance there will be of being rejected because they have a different set of views or preferences than you do.
On top of revealing additional details about potential matches beyond their photos, Coffee Meets Bagel also shows users if their friends have liked any of their bagels' profiles as well as which one was your best match from your previous day's batch. In other words, this feature creates a community within the app by allowing members to look at other users' profiles both for personal interest and to see if they know anyone who might be better suited for them than their current one.
4. CMB shows you how long it took its algorithm to match you up with someone .
One of the concerns that many people tend to have when joining online dating services is that they will spend all day swiping left or right without actually getting anywhere in meeting someone who they would want to meet up with. Coffee Meets Bagel does a decent job of removing some of that uncertainty from the equation by letting its members know exactly how long it takes on average for two individuals' preferences/interests to match up with one another.
In my experience, two out of the three people I've been matched with turned out to be a good fit for me after messaging them back and forth for a few days, but it can take at most a couple of weeks before they come up with your best match based on the algorithm that powers their service.
