Playing with Tinder Unblur profile

Tinder Unblur Code Explanation

The following JavaScript code is a script designed to unblur Tinder photos from the "Likes You" section. It works by fetching the teaser images from Tinder's API and dynamically updating the DOM to replace the blurred images with clear ones.

async function unblur() {
  // Fetch the teasers (users who liked your profile) from Tinder API
  const teasers = await fetch("https://api.gotinder.com/v2/fast-match/teasers", {
    headers: {
      // Uses the Tinder API token stored in the browser's localStorage
      "X-Auth-Token": localStorage.getItem("TinderWeb/APIToken"),
      platform: "android",
    },
  })
    // Parse the response as JSON and extract the results
    .then((res) => res.json())
    .then((res) => res.data.results);

  // Select all blurred teaser elements from the Tinder page's DOM
  const teaserEls = document.querySelectorAll(
    ".Expand.enterAnimationContainer > div:nth-child(1)"
  );

  // Loop through each teaser and replace the blurred image with the clear one
  teasers.forEach((teaser, index) => {
    const teaserEl = teaserEls[index];
    const teaserImage = `https://preview.gotinder.com/${teaser.user._id}/original_${teaser.user.photos[0].id}.jpeg`;

    // Set the background image to the clear image URL
    teaserEl.style.backgroundImage = `url(${teaserImage})`;
  });
}

// Call the unblur function
unblur();

Breakdown of the Code

1. Fetching the Teasers:

   • The function starts by making a network request to the Tinder API endpoint https://api.gotinder.com/v2/fast-match/teasers to retrieve a list of users who have liked your profile.
   • It sends along the X-Auth-Token which is stored in your browser's localStorage. This token is required to authenticate the request and retrieve the list of teasers.
   • The platform header is set to "android", which might be necessary to access Tinder’s mobile-like API.

2. Selecting the DOM Elements:

   • The script uses document.querySelectorAll to find the DOM elements where the blurred teaser images are located.
   • These elements are identified by the CSS selector .Expand.enterAnimationContainer > div:nth-child(1), which targets the blurred image containers in the "Likes You" section.

3. Replacing Blurred Images:

   • The function loops through the list of teasers (returned from the API) and their corresponding DOM elements.
   • For each teaser, it constructs the URL to the clear image using the user's ID and the photo's ID.
   • The script then updates the backgroundImage of each teaser element with the URL of the clear image, effectively unblurring the photos.

4. Async/Await:

   • The unblur() function is asynchronous, allowing it to fetch the teaser images and wait for the response before updating the DOM with clear images.

How to Use It

1. Open Tinder on a web browser and log in.
2. Navigate to the Likes You page.
3. Open your browser's Developer Tools (F12 or right-click → Inspect).
4. Go to the Console tab.
5. Copy and paste the script into the console.
6. Press Enter to execute the script, and watch the blurred images become unblurred.

This script leverages the power of browser developer tools and the Tinder API to enhance the user experience by allowing you to see those who have liked you without needing a paid subscription.
