If you already have a Tinder profile up that has been live for several months like mine has, with sub-par photos but you know now (from Alex's great wisdom on what makes a great photos) they could be improved with better ones, will the Tinder algorithm recognise you now have upgraded your profile pics with better ones and boost you up the SMV charts, or are you pegged at the same SMV based on your intial profile upload, regardless on weather you later swap them out for better pictures?

Yeah man, Tinder will calibrate once you update your pics. It might take a few days but it will happen

Ok cool, like I was saying to Trey, I will just update my pictures then without resetting then monitor the results. Thanks man.
So when would you say a reset is necessary, under what circumstances?

It's honestly rarely ever necessary. Maybe, if you've had Tinder for a while and you updated your photos radically and some time has past and you feel like Tinder is not recalibrating or something like that. But I think the majority of times when people do resets it's necessary

Your SMV has nothing to do with the tinder algorithm. SMV is what girls see based on how good your pics are. If you get better pics more girls will swipe right on you and THEN your tinder score will go up

Ok, but if I am doing a BIG profile revamp, (ie: replacing all 6 pics and rewring my bio) would I not need to reset my profile? or is that not necessary?

I'm no tinder guru but I don't think that's necessary. You'd see improvements probably immediately

If you live in an area that's not very populated, a reset is not a bad idea (but be careful of shadow ban). Otherwise your new better pics will only be shown to the new profiles that are created, all the girls who already swiped left on you will stay that way.
