MASHABLE - Apr 4 - On Wednesday, Tinder users were complaining that they were locked out of their accounts, blaming Facebook. Accessing Tinder requires logging in with a Facebook account. So, when changes are made to how third-party apps interact with Facebook - as Zuckerberg recently announced was about to happen - something went wrong with that integration. "Facebook Permissions," read the apparent error message. "Tinder requires you provide additional Facebook permissions in order to use a Tinder account. This information is used to create fuller profiles, verify authenticity and provide support." Following the prompts didn't resolve the issue, and users were quick to blame Facebook.
