  Yes please!!! It would be nice to know how often they get on or the last time they got on

  I don't like this idea. This could cause extra stress for those of us with anxiety. "X was last online 1 hour ago... Why didn't they reply?" Dating is already stressful enough. I don't want that added stress. We don't need to know when others are last online and we should be allowed that same privacy.

  Court brings up a great point, and the reason this doesn't yet exist. We totally understand dating is already stressful and that this might be a turn-off for some users. On the flip side of this, lots of users are convinced that everyone matching with them doesn't actually use the app, so being able to sort between those can help alleviate expectations and disappointment.
  
  One way we envision something like this would be to have the data be very vague. Last online: "Today", Last online: "Yesterday", Last online "This week". That way we keep the level of detail low enough that you don't really know when they opened the app, but at least you have a vague idea that they still have the app installed and didn't forget to delete their account.
  
  One additional note, technically this data is already available to premium users since we have a read-receipts feature now.

  I don’t think we need to know if someone has been active within the past day or so, but I’ve come across girls who I know and I know are married at this point. I think if someone hasn’t been active in like a month than they should stop being shown in peoples feeds.

  Honestly if there are people who are stressed by it then just make it something that is “visible to others” or not. Easy.

  I'll suggest you update the App so that it will enable us to see when people are online or not and can also see their last seen.I wish it could also be updated to have the same features as Facebook messenger

  Maybe Mutual should design its own metric with labels such as active or less active to vaguely sort it out. For instance, if that person hasn't opened the app or swiped in the last 2 months or if they check a box that says inactive on their profile (I've read bios where she said that she wasn't active and had deleted the app, etc. I'm sure that it would give some people peace of mind if they were given the option to notify the community that they'd be gone for a while)
  
  The label and corresponding metric could operate as a black box, so that the criteria for determining activity wasn't obvious (don't announce that it means users haven't been on for two months, etc).

  Surely, active people deserve knowing fellow active people because they are serious at that moment.

  Another way to quantify this is by the listing the number of swipes in the past week. I might have logged in to check messages but not have scrolled through any new potential matches. Might also encourage me not to mindlessly swipe for too long each week.

  In a users profile detail, shows matches when they were last on the app (doesn’t have to be precise or intrusive, something like “active X days ago” or “inactive >1 week”). There are a lot of users that have an old profile or duplicates and one of the profiles may be useless. It also incentivizes users to log in at least once a week which is good for the community.
  
  Another option would be to automatically delete a profile that’s been inactive more than a month, or send them an email asking them to confirm they’re still using the app.

  Not if they've been on in the past hour. Knowing if they've been on in the past week or past month. I don't want to waste time sending a note to someone who hasn't been on in a year.

  It could be something as simple as saying that you’re active on this app currently Facebook messenger has something similar but I do agree with some of the other ideas

  Could there be online chat system that tell when people are connected please! Sometime I will chat with someone and I don’t know when they will reply

  If I get someone that swiped up on me but the did it several months before, that person could be off mutual, no longer single, etc. if they swiped up on me a week ago in comparison, I’m more likely to contact that person. Especially helpful if the person that swiped up on you, or you yourself, leave mutual but never deactivate the mutual account

  yes but keep it vague, this week, last week, this month, last month, (title of month if more than that)

  I wouldn't care if it showed a user was online in the last few min. I would like to know activity level (in the last week/month) so I am not wasting my time writing someone who will not read it.

• 11 May, '21
  Alex

  I agree with Court and am not a fan of this idea. Whether a person has been active or not won’t change whether I personally swipe yes or no on that person. All it does is add anxiety about being active enough to be seen as viable. There are some weeks where I dont check the apps but I don’t want to always feel like that’s working against me.

• 04 Jun, '21

  I think this is totally a great idea, but make it a setting for those that don't want to have their active status online. Most of the time I message people and they don't respond because that havent been on for months since they liked my profile

  Should show last seen.

  I think a perfect compromise could be taken from WhatsApp. There’s an option that allows the last online setting to be turned off on an account to account basis. So if you had the “Last Seen” setting the default, people who aren’t comfortable with seeing those things, or not having theirs seen can toggle it in the options.

  Don't show us how recently they were active
  Have the algorithm display active users first

  There is a lot of frustration cause is relationships with lack of communication right? So why not make it so I know who is online right now?

  A point listed in their profile should tell us when they were last active that way we do not get our hopes set too high while we sit there an hope someone who is already married will message us back. "Hide inactive profile" is not enough when it only disapears after we've already swiped up or waisted our only free note on someone we thaught was still active.
  I first taught it would be ideal for profiles to be automatically removed after a set time, but i can see pros and cons for all involved. Therefore, if feel just a pin listing the last time they were online would be extremly helpful. And will help people to not get so down on themselves when nothing happens. I had a flight achool program that showed how long ago individuals were logged in, and it made it helpful to comunicate with each other to find good study budies.

  Absolutely, I came across a profile and she put her Instagram account in her"about me" section. I go to the IG profile and she's married with a kid lol.

  PLEASE DO THIS!!!
  I had a match who was already in a committed relationship.
  Not only that I've literally swiped up on AT LEAST 400 women and only one swiped back. So I would seriously like to know who actually uses the app.
  And if they don't use the app with in a specific amount of time (like 1 to 3 months) delete them!
  There should be no tolerance in wasting peoples time, men and women alike.

  Or at the very least can’t you pause an account where someone hasn’t been active in a certain amount of time? You don’t delete them but they have to come back on to unpause it. I’ve come across one guy who I know got married a month ago - hasn’t been active on here for months before that. And another guy’s profile who I know is in a relationship and has been for 6 months.

  This feels like a bad idea that will add to anxiety and invade privacy. I could see it causing angry messages if you don’t answer someone back and you’ve been online. Also, I don’t want to necessarily know when someone I’m interested in is online because it might make me anxious.

• 19 Nov, '21

  Maybe it could a profile preference option. Frankly I feel I waste a lot of time messaging and watching for a reply from someone who hasn't logged in lately. If I new they logged in 3 days in a row after I msgd, I’d simply delete my msg and move on. But right now I now, I’m saving it in case they just haven't been on in a while. Otherwise this goes with the other suggestsion of being able to save (or bank) people you liked.
  
  I test software apps in my profession. If you need pilot users, I’m willing to participate.

  I feel mutual is only a good dating app if you served a mission or go to school or have other guys in your picture or girls are very picky and want guys with blonde hair and blue eyes and they only respond to who they want and never respond there should be a way to see if someone’s active or not and if they aren’t there profile should be deleted

  Hmmm. I’m torn. On the one hand, it’s fun to see when someone is talking to you in real time. But on the other hand, it often increases the wrong kind of frenzy. So if you’re gonna allow this then make sure there’s a way to
  Turn it off- Especially @ night. If it encourages someone to text someone else and they need a little nudge then just provide the feature and see if it increases connection & conversations l.

  Absolutely NOT
  What would it be the good reason.
  It only will feed the people with controlling issues, possesives and jealous.
  Nobody deserves to be monitored and nobody should be monitoring you. If you want exclusivity, that's only IN a relationship ... it means, you are way far from this site and the person shouldn't even be here 😆
  Apps should take responsability for what type of behaviour they are feeding.
  What I would like is more protection from scammers ... that's something to put time and thinking to it.

• 11 Jun, '22

  I feel like a lot of the concerns here could be fixed by making it so activity can be turned on and off. When the feature is added, it’s automatically turned on. However, make it so users can turn it on or off. When it’s off, their activity isn’t visible to others, and they can’t see others activity(and vice versa).

  I don't like this idea other than to say "this person has been active recently" if they've been active on the app within the last 2 months. Outside of that. Nope! Don't like this at all. Ensure you have the option to turn it off of you're going to do this.

  it is good to see who is active sometimes you can swipe up on people not active at all.

  I don't like folks to know I'm on line. It makes me feel obligated to say something to them, even in the middle of the night when I'm on just because I can't sleep.
