Is it possible for a person who has been banned from Tinder to still see matches without being able to log in?

If a person has been banned from Tinder, they typically lose all access to their account, which means they won’t be able to view matches, messages, or profile information. Tinder’s ban policy restricts login and access entirely, as the platform blocks the user’s phone number, email, or device ID. Because of this, it is not possible to see matches or interact with them through the app.
However, there are a few hypothetical scenarios where a banned user might still see profiles:
1. **If Logged in on Another Device Prior to the Ban**: If the user was logged in on a secondary device (like a tablet) prior to the ban and has not refreshed or closed the app, they might still see old match lists, though interaction would be limited. As soon as they attempt to perform any actions, the app would likely log them out due to the ban.

2. **Third-Party Screenshots**: A banned user could potentially see matches if someone else (a friend or acquaintance) shares screenshots of their profile or chat history. This wouldn’t be a direct view of the matches but rather through an external source.
3. **Shadow Profiles**: If a person has created duplicate accounts using slightly modified details (different phone number or email), they might come across profiles that are similar to their original matches. However, this approach violates Tinder’s terms of service and can lead to additional bans.
Overall, Tinder’s ban mechanisms are designed to prevent banned users from accessing any data from their previous accounts, ensuring they cannot view old matches or create new ones.
