You open the app, look at a profile, and decide in seconds: chat or next? On the other side, someone is doing exactly the same with yours.

That’s why the perfect person might be just a few photos away. The more they get to know you, the easier it is to see that you’re a match.

More photos, more likes: we measured it

We ran a study to understand how the number of photos affects the likes you get. The result was clear:

  • On average, each extra photo increases your likes by 25%.
  • People with 2 photos instead of 1 get 51% more likes.
  • People with 7 photos get 32% more likes than those with 4.

The gain is biggest with the first photos, but it keeps showing up even on profiles that are already well filled out. If your profile has few photos, that’s where the difference is greatest.

What’s the ideal number of photos?

The gain doesn’t stop after the first few photos: people with 7 photos get 32% more likes than those with 4. So our tip is simple: don’t stop early. Get to 7 and give the person on the other side more reasons to say “hi.” And if you want to go further, the app has room for up to 9 photos.

One photo shows your face. Several show you.

One photo shows what you look like. Several show how you live: the smile at a night out with friends, the dish you cooked, your pet, the trip you’ll never forget, a Sunday in the park.

In the study, photos that show different sides of life, like daily routines, hobbies, and moments with friends, create a fuller impression. Sharp, well-lit photos that represent your personality are more likely to attract matches.

Every photo is a clue, and the person on the other side loves playing detective. When they find one that fits, that thought comes: “I’d go there with this person.”

New on Veggly: upload several photos at once

A much faster way to refresh your profile has arrived.

No more uploading one photo, waiting for it to load, going back, and uploading the next. With the new multiple upload feature, you select as many photos as you want from your gallery, all at once, and they go straight to your profile.

A few taps and a few seconds are all it takes to have up to 9 fresh photos showing the best of you. No marathon, no endless patience, no excuse to keep your profile waiting.

Just open the app, tap to add photos, and choose them all at once. It’s that simple.

Your matches get notified

When you update your photos, your matches are notified.

That match that cooled off, that conversation that stopped halfway, that person who liked you and disappeared: they’ll all get a notice that there’s something new on your profile. Sometimes a new photo is all it takes for the conversation to start again.

Complete your photos now

You don’t need a professional photo or a big production. You need photos that show the real you.

Open the app, use the new multiple upload to choose your best photos at once, and update your profile now. The perfect person might be about to say hi.
