Mastering Auto Swiper's Keyword Functions: Instant Likes, Banned, and Required Keywords

In the world of online dating, efficiency is key. Auto Swiper's keyword functions offer a powerful way to streamline your swiping process, ensuring you match with profiles that align with your preferences while avoiding those that don't. In this post, we'll dive deep into the Instant Likes, Banned, and Required keyword features, explaining what they are, how they work, and how you can use them to optimize your dating app experience.

Understanding Keyword Functions

Auto Swiper's keyword functions allow you to set up automatic actions based on specific words or phrases found in a profile's text. These functions come in three flavors:

1. Instant Like Keywords: Profiles containing these words will automatically receive a "like."
2. Banned Keywords: Profiles containing these words will automatically receive a "dislike" or be skipped.
3. Required Keywords: Profiles must contain at least one of these words to receive a "like."

Each of these functions can be a powerful tool in your online dating arsenal when used correctly.

How It Works

When Auto Swiper encounters a profile, it scans the profile text for the keywords you've specified. This includes the bio, job title, education, and any other text fields in the profile. The keyword matching is case-insensitive, meaning "Travel" and "travel" will be treated the same.

Auto Swiper supports two types of keyword inputs:

1. Simple String Matching: Just type the word or phrase you want to match.
2. Regular Expressions (Regex): For more advanced users, you can use regex patterns for more flexible matching.

Test Your Keywords

Before applying your keywords in Auto Swiper, you can test them using our Keyword Tester. This tool allows you to input sample profile text and your keywords to see how they match. It's a great way to refine your keyword strategy and ensure you're getting the results you want.

Instant Like Keywords

Instant Like keywords are perfect for quickly matching with profiles that mention interests or traits you're particularly fond of.

How to use it:

• Add words or phrases that strongly indicate compatibility.
• Use regex for more complex matching, like /travel|adventure/ to match profiles mentioning either "travel" or "adventure."

Examples:

• "dog lover" - Instantly like profiles of fellow dog enthusiasts.
• /hik(e|ing)/ - Use regex to match both "hike" and "hiking."

Banned Keywords

Banned keywords help you automatically filter out profiles that mention deal-breakers or red flags for you.

How to use it:

• Add words or phrases that indicate incompatibility or traits you want to avoid.
• Use regex to catch variations of problematic terms.

Examples:

• "smoker" - Skip profiles that mention smoking.
• /^(only here for|looking for) friends$/ - Use regex to avoid profiles only seeking friendships.

Required Keywords

Required keywords ensure that profiles meet certain criteria before receiving a like.

How to use it:

• Add words or phrases that are must-haves in a potential match.
• Use regex for more flexible matching of important traits.

Examples:

• "ambitious" - Only like profiles that mention ambition.
• /college|university|degree/ - Use regex to match profiles mentioning higher education.

Tips for Effective Keyword Usage

1. Start Simple: Begin with a few key terms and adjust as you go.
2. Be Specific: Use precise terms to avoid false positives.
3. Use Regex Wisely: While powerful, complex regex can slow down the swiping process.
4. Balance Your Approach: Don't make your criteria too strict, or you might miss out on great matches.
5. Regular Review: Periodically review and update your keywords based on your experiences and changing preferences.
6. Test Your Keywords: Use our Keyword Tester to refine your keyword strategy before applying it in Auto Swiper.
