Tinder users’ pasts will soon no longer be cloaked in secrecy. The dating app will soon roll out a new feature that will allow users to get a background check of the person they are dating.

With just a person’s name and phone number, users in search of the truth will be able to find out if their “date” has ever been arrested for harassment... or worse.This new feature, made possible through an investment in the nonprofit Garbo, will allow for background checks on users simply through their names and phone numbers.
