This app uses scam like tactics

A user sent me a message. I tried to read the message. But hilly redirected me to buy a subscription in order to read the message. I buy the subscription that hilly redirected me to. I go back to try and read the message after buying but no it redirects me again to a more expensive subscription. The app is very misleading they get you to buy useless subscription that don’t do what u need it do just so that you end up buying more. I contacted support but they was just as useless asking me to send them a screenshot or a screen recording of what happened which is impossible because it’s already done like I can’t go back in time and send a screenshot of the first time the app redirected me to buy the subscription because now it’s redirecting me to buy a different one.

Not for me. (Would recommend Wizz instead)

Holy may seem like a good app but downloading it really made me see the truth, when I downloaded it, I had so much hope because the app seemed promising. When I first started swiping everything seemed normal, you had to pay for rewinds and super crush and to send a message before matching which is acceptable. After a while, when I started getting likes I couldn’t see any of my likes not even one, I had to pay. Then I thought “oh that’s weird but ig it’s normal.” But then when I really seen the problem with the app. When I got my first match I couldn’t see who I had matched with, I couldn’t see who sent me a super crush, and I couldn’t see who viewed my profile. This app is a waste of time, I had it for a few weeks and had a bunch of likes with no way of viewing them unless I spend money. Wizz is a better app in my opinion. You don’t have to pay for likes, you don’t have to pay to see you likes you, and you don’t have to pay to send messages before likes. I am highly disappointed in this app and would not recommend it to anyone who is looking for a true dating experience or love. I would prefer you use Wizz as I said.

Hi from David 💜 Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Hily offers free messaging with matches and a range of features to enhance connection. Premium features like Unblur allow users to reveal likes and other interactions. We strive for transparency with these options. You can see your matches and major crushes you received from other users in messages section. If you have more feedback, please reach out to support@hily.com so we can address your concerns 🙌

bluffing you to pay several subscription!

after having few received likes, i thought i would pay to see who likes me knowing that the app is showing no more available people to match with, pressed on Unblur and the app took me to a subscription page of 7.49, paid it gladly but ended up being unable to see the matches because it was a different type of subscription even though the app took me to this payment page upon pressing on unblur!!!

when contacted support they requested that i upgrade to a more premium subscription to be able to see the received likes! when i insisted on a refund they told me that apple manages the refund when apple only have an option to cancel subscription!!
also so many fake profiles…

This site is the worst!

I subscribed to Bumble, Tinder, and Hily on the same day about a week ago. I used the same photos and bio on all three sites. On Bumble I Iiked several women and had 40 matches by the end of the week. Currently, I’m chatting with 20 women. I went on my first Bumble date just yesterday and have two more lined up for next week. On Tinder I got around 20 matches, and I’m currently chatting with three different women. On Hily, I got 11 likes, and not one single match. The women on Hily that liked my profile were not attractive! The profiles I did “like,”never responded as a match. Now, I don’t claim to be Brad Pitt, but I’ve been told I’m a handsome guy. I would be confident in saying that I’m average or above in looks. The results I got from Hily just don’t add up compared to the other two sites.
I highly suspect most of Hily’s “attractive” female members are actually fake accounts posted by them to bilk money out of male members. I hate how they nickel and dime every little feature of the app. You have to pay separately for an “unblur” to click on a photo of woman that liked you, only to see the face of a troll, an overweight and filtered teenager, or a grandma! This site is fake. I only wish there was someway to hold them accountable and get my money back. Don’t bother with this app.

Updates and improvements

I miss the wheel from a couple of updates back, you could have a daily spin, well every week or so as it would often say you already had a spin today, I’m not expecting to meet anyone off a dating app, we just exchange a few words, real life dating is so 2010’s anyway. Thanks for the improvements, less free features, not sure if bumble bought you out as every other add seems to be for that app.

After LIVE went down so did the app

When I first got to HILY it was great like the rewards for coming back were nice, they could be very specific in your profile and who you wanted to meet. The big thing was LIVE though being able to sit in a live chat with people streaming and talk to them was the easiest way to get matches and make friend or find someone interesting to talk to. LIVE was literally the life of HILY for a LONG time. Even when HILY started having the ads more frequently even when the money hungry tactics started showing more LIVE kept me and others coming back. Next thing I know LIVEs disappeared and all of a sudden the app because one of the worst, you get possibly 5 likes/dislikes before an ad pops up, they still have the issue of rampant bots, scams, and people promoting specific content. If you even think about buying anything it’s not really worth it cause chances are those ppl aren’t using the app anymore. And to make it worse the hide your profile if you aren’t using the app in 2-3 days. How dare you get rid of everything good about the app then punish ppl for not logging in daily just to get bombarded by ads. It’s not worth it anymore it’s just hot or not swipe simulator atp

Bots and baiting are rife - hard pass

While this app might have a new twist on things - the amount of paywall blocking on this app is mind-boggling. EVERY feature is requires a subscription/payment rather than being able to build confidence in a match or in the application itself. The botting on this application is quite obvious, where the people that liked you dont show up on the ‘people who viewed you’ section.

Other apps do it better and are more popular, with less investment. Worth it? Only if you want to have the app data mine you. Iv deleted the app after 5 days, no real connections or leads other than ‘pay me and find out’.

Waste of time scam app

Let me start by saying that it only gets one star because I can’t put zero starts but after using the app and the developers reply calling me a liar I want that star back!

It’s clearly some kind of scam app. Everything is behind a pay wall of some kind and there are ads every few swipes. Can’t see other members profiles because it’s blurred out and behind a pay wall Can’t read messages because it’s behind a pay wall Can’t do much of anything because the pay wall jumps up and blocks you What doesn’t make sense is why would a dating app allow ads for a different dating apps on their platform? Scam that’s why! Avoid like the plague!

Edit. The development team like to call its users liars and claim that things are free, because its costs to message others regardless of text or video.
They don’t offer premium for free you have to pay for it too!

The only thing you can do is like profiles but you can’t see who likes you, can’t see the messages sent to you, can’t message others or do anything at all really because it’s ALL behind a pay wall!
