Hinge, the relationship app, is taking a different approach to online dating. Instead of encouraging casual dating, the Hinge app is designed to help individuals build meaningful relationships. With Hinge, users can upload both photos and short videos intended to help them strike up two-way conversations that foster stronger connections and turn virtual connections into real romance.

Learn how Hinge is able to support their user-generated content during direct uploads from their users’ devices, resizing and cropping this media on- the-fly to fit the graphic design, and optimizing the quality and format for improved performance.
