Got banned on Hinge and Bumble multiple times, any advice?
I was banned on Hinge and Bumble multiple times. I already know the common methods people have mentioned about (new pics, number, email, etc.). But I still have the following questions, anyone can share their experience here?
1. They now mandate face scan verification. When they ban you do they store your face scan data to prevent you from creating new accounts? I have multiple friends who successfully got verified multiple times after they were banned multiple times. Someone told me the government regulations don't allow apps to store your face scan data, so that data is deleted right after verification. But Google said they still store face scan data for banned users for "security reasons". Which one is true?
2. I got banned again on Hinge last night during fresh account set up probably due to bad lighting. I just got a new number again and new pics, is it recommended to recreate another new account again or I should wait for a period of time since it's only been 24 hours since my last account was banned and they might still have my face scan data?
3. When it comes to bypassing bans is factory reset sufficient or do we need brand new device? (I've heard from Apple saying apps don't have access to device id)
4. Android vs Apple which device is better?

1) usually if you haave to face verify aand your banned, its not gonna be good. But it sounds like you have friends who've done it. Tthaat being said, i would only do thaat if tthey give you no choice but to do it
2) hinge is by far the hardestt app to get back on. Id prob wait at least 3 days for them
3) neww device is neceessary i believe
4) personal preference - the cheapest phones are gonna be android tho. You can get 30-50 dollaars on ebay or amazon
