Leave a Review Hiki
Pretty useless
You get 5 likes per day - completely decreasing your chances of matching - with not that many people even close to you distance wise. People won’t even see you liked them unless you message them immediately when you like them - again another useless feature, and apparently they keep profiles up even when users leave - again, decreasing your chances of actually matching with someone. ON TOP OF ALL THAT - they charge like….$12 PER WEEK - if you want normal features - way to exploit differently abled people, many of whom would pay anything to find a partner…you would have better luck with just saying what your different abilities/needs are on a different app almost certainly, especially if you’re at least average lookingShow lesspeyopep
Can I pay via kidney?
$69 a month? Good luck with that. That’s exploitation and a total ripoff. I’ll pass.Assfluff
Used to be good, but now it’s ruined
I have used this app for over 2 years, back before all of these changes were made. Am I bothered by the fact it is now for anyone Neurodivergent? Nope. I like that more people can experience Hiki because I’ve found an amazing friendship group through this app.
What annoys me is the stupid paywall. Like hello? I get people can be sketchy and I know of other systems that use a paywall for verification (take Steam, you need to spend $5 USD. A minor annoyance, but still valid). But that’s not what’s happened with Hiki. No. The prices for Hiki Premium are outrageously greedy, even if it’s for more than verification. It’s still a complete rip off. I can’t look at the profiles of those who like mine without paying. How can anyone meet people now?
$29.95 per week. What are these numbers and with no certainty I am going to meet other people for either friendship or love and form a connection with them. It’s a complete gamble and horribly greedy. Everything they’ve put behind this paywall is not worth the prices they are charging. I have shown this update to the friend I met through Hiki and she’s just as disgusted as I am.
I hate seeing that once again, something good has been ruined by the selfish, blind, greed of money. It really is a shame.Show lessSparkle6360
Not bad
I’ve never been on dating apps before its a good dating app for neuro divergent individualsSWTCWfan999
New Hiki is pure greed, abusive and damaging
All the basic regular features have been put behind a paywall leaving thousands of users confused and upset. Hiki could have kept all the regular features free and then add new special features available for premium only. But the greed and exploitation of neurodiverse vulnerable people was too great for the despicable people behind this app. I deleted my account. I hope many others do too and that this app ceases to exist. We don't need another exploitative damaging corporation using and abusing autistic people while pretending to care.Show lessReviews by M
So-so
It’s a well made app, but the premium is very overpriced at $60 cad. Talk about greed. Otherwise it is well made, but there are very few people in my area that use it.Andriy Pek
Why did you change the app???!!!!! 😡
There’s a saying, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
Why did you change the app?????????
It was fine the way that it was!!!
This is gonna be a long one, I apologise in advance.
(Also this is strictly my opinion.)
It used to be free and easy to use. It was also a safe space for autistic people to come together and meet new people.
Now the app is open to “all neurotypes, which defeats the purpose of autistic people having a safe space for people to hang out and meet people.
Then on top of that, you want to charge £45 a month and the £400 for a year?
Like seriously, who’s realistically gonna pay that amount of money to an app, that was originally free, only now to you to pay loads of money for basic features.
(Also everyone knows that autistic people are struggling to find work and stable income so the fact that they would introduce a paywall, goes to show that they do not care about the autistic community at all they want to take advantage of us any way that they can. I mean do they think we were born yesterday???
Absolutely disgusting!! Selling out to make others feel more comfortable. Why couldn’t you create a different app where all neurotypes can meet different people and let autistics have Hiki? And on top of that, charge the most outrageous prices I have ever seen. Even luxury dating apps charge cheaper than this.) Unbelievable!!! Smfh. 😡😡😡Show lessYGirl1
Utter money grabbing trash
I don’t think the developers of this app did their research of people with ADHD and Autism as we are generally above average intelligence and very good at spotting scams and awful people and practices long before neurotypicals! This app is a total scam, I’m based on the South Coast UK and I’m getting matched with people on the other side of the planet. And in order to view profiles of people near me I have to go through a paywall from the outset to achieve this. I don’t mind paying for something that’s useful. But this app just screams money grabbing and useless! I will be deleting and removing my profile and looking for something more neurodivergent friendly.Show lessSnarfalous
Making space for people who need it
Fantastic app for an ND navigating social circles in safe spacesURAWIZRD
people seem to have a love hate
You get five free likes a day, meaning u can match with five ppl free. Why this seems to bother alot of autisic people kinda shows u why the app is failing. alot of people on the platform arent even making connections but complain about five freebies a day not being enough and leaving. YOU WERENT MAKING DEEP CONNECTIONS BEFORE THE CHANGE FOOLS. the app may be trying to cater to a group of autistic that have been invisible in our own community. The responsible empathetic and working Autistic. The autistic that may volunteer for other autistic. When I joined I was turned off by the childish idea of what autistic people are like. if we keep catering to this group that we have been catering to for centuries and continue to ignore the other group of autistic who are completely independent ur not going to get good relationships out of it. It makes more sense for two independent autistics that have a deep understanding for empathy and connection to have success on this website. The people who will not have success are the ones who compulsively look for a relationship like you’re an object and then complain when they don’t get more than five a day. its just a headache to weed through ppl likeShow lessXxamarettaxx
