When you're striking out most Saturday nights, your first thought is to turn to dating apps. But just because you're looking good in your first photo, it certainly doesn't guarantee any swipes. Potential suitors are analysing every aspect of your profile, from the diversity of photos to the minor details of your bio. Luckily, we can reveal the biggest turn ons and turn offs according to 5000 users. 

A survey conducted by dating app Badoo asked participants what made them swipe left and swipe right.

As you'd expect, photos play a huge part. Not just the level of attractiveness, but the content of the picture.

If you're spotted with an attractive woman, sorry, but more than half will hit the red cross. Conversely, If you want your photos to do the job, turns out 30 per cent of women would swipe right if you're one with nature - the countryside is always a favourable shot. 

And if you need something to do with your hands? Why not hold a pet? 29 per cent of women would swipe right if there's a dog in your picture.
