Edit My Profile We know you're a total catch, but we also know it's really hard to show other people the real you on dating apps. That's why OkCupid has lots of ways for you to make an interesting and unique profile, just like you! Are you a visual person? Add photos to make your profile stand out! We recommend up to 6 different photos that showcase all the features and aspects that make you unique. If you need further assistance and advice, feel free to look through How to choose great photos. Answer Match Questions without ever needing to type a word, letting you see if you're compatible with someone else at a glance. More of a writer? Express yourself in your profile prompts. Add explanations to Match Questions for maximum wordage. When you introduce yourself to someone else, your message will show up on your profile/Discover card along with the rest of your info. That way, when they're deciding whether to Like you or not, they're taking your awesome message into account at the same time as everything else- no more judging solely on whether they think your photo is hot or not. Tip: Be authentic. Don't be afraid to share things about yourself that are quirky, slightly embarrassing, or unique to you: they make great conversation starters!
