Dont know tbh, admin might be able to tell you what the max range is for that

4 min walk was less than 0.1 mile here though if that helps you any

It's a bit hit and miss to be honest. I think it's meant to be within a 100 meters but in my experience it's anything between fractions of an inch (tested it out for a laugh with a partner as I lay on top of him - it was bang on then ) to a mile away.

But in general I've found it to be more hit than miss if you're just wanting to know if a guy is physically pretty near to you.

You really wouldn't want it to be very accurate if you think about it.

Yeah, pretty sure it was disabled on swingers for this very reason

The next distance up is two minute walk, if that narrows it down a bit

"The next distance up is two minute walk, if that narrows it down a bit "

Which is about 200 yards.

4 minute walk is about 400 yards.

So it would make sense if Within Touching Distance was up to 100 yards.

I was in a small pub once and WTD came up. I was SO hoping he’d be in the same pub, I messaged him, but sadly no reply and then he disappeared from my search. I guess he must have just walked on by. Shame.

Anything from inside you to 100m is my experience. Chap about 100m from me comes up as touching distance when we're on here together. He's not my type tho so no fun to be had there. I do know who he is though and we are sometime genuinely touching disance as we walk past each other on dog walks.

There's also the issue of time lag. Quite often it can take some time to update locations. Several times I've been in a location but had to use updates to inform others nearby. Equally, they or I have departed but the location still registers for a good while.

I think it's a great feature which I have benefited from often, but can be less than accurate.

Yeah, had this happen before when travelling by train.

By the time someone had checked my profile, decided to message, drafted then redrafted before sending I was 5 stops further down the line.

In a world of my own

There is a time lag issue, however it literally is within touching distance, popped up a number of times as we met and engaged each other if you know what I mean!

It's never been that accurate in my experience, it may have to do with the refresh period, I wouldn't know. One guy here consistently appears as touching distance, day and night. This is a very small apartment complex. I've met all my immediate neighbours in all directions. I've never seen anyone remotely looking like him around here🧐; and other anecdotes. But it may just be my set-up🤷🏽‍♂️
