[Bug] Version 5.0 of Tinder Deblur does not work properly

[JoeyPal]

As shown in the attached picture, version 5.0 of Tinder Deblur does not work properly:

1. Only the first like is deblured
2. No like can be passed or liked
3. On one like it is superimposed the following message: “UNABLE TO DEBLUR This is not a bug! Not all likes can be deblured.”

As shown in the attached picture, I have used the Java script on Chrome, by installing it on the last version of Tapermonkey (v4.19.0) through the UI using the provided link.

I am using version 5.0 of the script from the microsoft edge browser, with tampermonkey v1.48.1. As you can see it only shows me one like, cant be passed or liked

@JoeyPal, @bbbaselard have you used the script before version 5.0? What does it mean that no like can be interacted with? Do you get any errors in the console after clicking the like/pass buttons?

I didn't use it before v5.0, if i clicked on the x or the like nothing happened, but now I just get the 'no likes available' message. These are the errors that i get in the console.

Interesting, none of the errors are related to our script, which means the buttons either dont do anything or the api call doesnt fail.

I had the same problem, but after clearing cache and cookies in Chrome and logging out and in again in Tinder made the unblurred images appear again 😄

After going through the first couple that were on the screen this pops up and no matter what it can't find anyone else

I tried that, and it also worked for me.

A little more info. The picture that was not able to be shown, before I reset was a person I had already liked, so she was in my messages. I had liked her through the deblur script and the small like and dislike buttons there.

If I clear the cache and cookies from tinder and log back in it shows the same people that I already matched with and if I dismiss the others I get the no likes available message

cleared cookies and cache and for me it's still blank - used to work prior to 5.0 (forgot which exact version i've used)

Reverted to dev build from here https://github.com/tajnymag/tinder-deblur/issues/27#issuecomment-1556192323 and images are showing again

[hannach20]

This just brings me back to version 5.0 still not working, will wait for a full fix

Wait, that one works? The comment you are referencing has a link to the latest dev branch.

[hannach20]

It installs 5.0 was that not the link that you were referring to?

[tajnymag]

Well, yes, it should install 5.0, but that shouldn't be a revert. I would expect the link have the same version as the main/master branch.

Or are you referring to a specific commit that you found working?

[hannach20]

Ohhh I thought you meant that you used that link to revert, my apologies

Strangely through it reverted, but dev branch works while main one gives me the black screen so I through it was a revert.

OK, I have to do a line by line diff between the branches 😅

is there any way to do the same to okCupid?

Different company, different API, different web stack, not using it.

Hi Legend - Fun fact - MatchGroup owns Tinder, Hinge, Match, Meetic, OkCupid, Pairs, Plenty Of Fish, Azar, Hakuna, and more. How about supporting more functionalities?

Didn't know that, sorry. Still, this is not the issue to discuss this in. Please, channel the further discussion in the issue I linked earlier.

About the like / pass function : Those worked by getting the userid of an unblurred image url. Tinder changed their image endpoints and now the unblurred image urls won't include the userid anymore. Tinder-deblur is just cutting the userid out of that image url which now returns a wrong userid.

The new image endpoint pattern seems to be random and got signing params.

Just bought a week of tinder-gold to see if there is a way to obtain the real userid of a "blurred userid" but no luck yet.

⚠️UPDATE⚠️

The project started as a simple wrapper around a javascript function posted on Reddit. I gained way more traction than I anticipated and I couldn't keep up as well and fast as I should have. What didn't help, was Tinder patching the exploited bug and later changing both API and frontend's identifiers. With me not on Tinder anymore, I am not able to test possible changes and/or find new exploits.

I am accepting any PRs I get and will do so until the project is archived. If you, the reader, are willing to take over the project, please, let me know.

If something isn't working, sometimes there's newer version available on the develop branch. To try it, click this link. Once there's a newer stable version, your userscript extension should update you automatically to it.
