Leave a Review Hily Dating App
DO NOT DOWNLOAD
This app is a joke. I downloaded it because I kept seeing advertisements on Facebook and Snapchat so I thought, why not. DO NOT DO IT. Like in the many other reviews, it’s matches you with people within minutes of you even making the account. Second, I didn’t like the fact that when it made me choose my race I had to settle on one, I’m a multiracial person and that is really annoying. Third, the app was giving me people that were not only out of my 25 mile range, but WAY out of my age range too. Why on earth would a 24 year old female want to try and “find love” with an 18 year old male. For some people, maybe, but that’s not what I had put in my age range. And I also didn’t like the fact that ANYONE could match.. That just causes the app to blow up when you’re trying to swipe through you “potential candidates” and it’s annoying. All and all this app is a joke. Not to mention I deleted it within about an hour of me having it, totally deactivating my account, and they STILL charged me for it. If you’re ganna scam people, at least put effort into your work.Show lessNikki_nikz
It’s not bad but it needs work
Ok so I’m going to start off by saying that it’s not a great app and it’s very very expensive. I’m 22(M) and I’m ok looking and i got a lot of matches. Only one was a fake profile but it was a catfish not a bot. This app is great at finding new people but I guess it’s kind of weird for women because anyone can text them. I kind of like that but I can see how that can be off putting. Anyway the real feature that’s broken and that makes this app not worth it is its location sensor. It doesn’t give you people within your specified range and even though you say what your ethnicity is the ethnicity filter is also broken. If those 2 very simple to fix things are fixed this would blow ANY dating app out of the water. As a computer science major I can say that they’re easy fixes of the developers ever got around to it. If anyone from the development team is reading this, fix it and you’ll have a lot more people on the app!!Show lessbig_mango
Prefer emptiness than Wrong Location
All I want to say is that, I’d prefer that the app would tell me that “There’s no more people in your area, check back in a while!” Rather than getting people from different states altogether. I live in Florida, not California.
Also, getting the location where it says the person’s name would be a GREAT!!! quality of life update. Since you eventually run out of people in your area, being able to check their location underneath their name without having to tap into their profile would be genius!
I gave it 4 stars because it’s incredibly simple to use and does what it’s advertised to do, and it even has a free trial you can use right off the bat where some of these apps just give them to you randomly or on a promotional basis without the use of currency, in-app or money-like, at all.Show lessBlackRose0924
Worst app ever created
I’ve literally never left a review on an app before but I’m doing it for this one because it was literally so bad. It’s nothing like tinder or any other dating app where you have to match to be able to talk, anyone can message you and i was basically spammed with notifications. Before i could even personalize my profile i had already gotten 20+ likes and the app would glitch because i was getting multiple notifications at once. Once i opened a message it wouldn’t mark it as read. And i didn’t have any filters or anything set for who i could see or who could see me other than a 30 mile radius filter and it was giving me people from everywhere like one was Georgia and i live in Louisiana. I was on the app maybe a few hours and it aggravated me so much that i just had to get off. And i tried to give it a few more chances but i just kept getting spammed with an unreal amount of people, like i couldn’t even go through them bc there was so many and my phone was going off constantly to the point that i deactivated my account. The app is very glitchy and horrible. Do not waste your time.Show lessbooooooooboo
Developer Response
Dear Customer. Thank you for the review! This is sad that you're frustrated with using our application. We are developing a distance filter right now and it will be improved in our future updates! Your opinion is very important for us so if you have more feedback to share with us please contact us at support@hily.comThe app is okay
I gave this a 3-star rating because while I like that you match with people super quick, and the pre-written ice breakers are cute, no one that is bisexual(or anything not confined to liking one gender) is able to put into the filter “Females and Males”, you are forced to choose. I’d also like to see more than “I am..male, female, or non-binary” because as you know, times are changing and so are people. It would be nice if they could distinguish themselves a bit better and feel valid. It would be really great to see if more LGBT friendly, as I’m sure that wasn’t your intention to leave them out, but you’d get a lot more people on it if you changed that! I hope to see it in the next update.
Also the chat feature on it is a little unorganized, messages are switched around so it’s a little confusing to me and it would be great if you could put the matches in a separate area than the messages just because it fills up and it gets too messy. Thanks!Show lessKayla697
Not what it’s cracked up to be
So I kept seeing ads for this app on Snapchat so I figured I would give it a go. Going into it, I figured it was just going to be a budget version of Tinder and boy was I right. This app’s filtering system is a joke. I set it to filter girls 25 miles from me and it was giving me girls from completely different states. I then tested it for the ethnicity filter by trying each ethnicity individually and it still gave me random girls of different ethnicities each time. Although the customer service chat function is a good idea, it was terrible with giving accurate answers to my problem. I asked the rep how to cancel the auto renewal service and she sent me a link to nothing and then spammed me with promotional stuff for their app. I called them out on it and they continued to be of no help. This app is not designed well at all for actually trying to find Mr. or Mrs. Right. It is instead nothing but a used car lot full of 1990s vehicles with over 200,000 miles on them that no body wants. I deleted my account and uninstalled the app within an hour because it was so poorly designed.Show lesscman2486
