  • Love the idea, too many fake profiles in LA

    I thought the idea was brilliant and just started using it less than a week ago. I cannot believe how many fake profiles there are on this app. (I’m in LA) This app may be okay for people who want hookups and non-monogamous relationship but definitely NOT for someone like me who is interested in finding a long term relationship. It also does not require you to provide much to start profile which means you may only see their age, first name and pictures only. I don’t even know how tall they are... Since i had to report a few fake profiles, I wrote the company using “contact us” option about my concern (fake profiles=users’ safety), but I haven’t received any response. I have heard about fake profiles targeting men but never women, until this app. If you are going to try this app, I would highly recommend not paying for the membership option but just do it for fun, nothing else.

  • Nice concept but terrible execution

    (Review by a premium who will probably not renew subscription.)

    My main frustration with this app is that, once you like a profile, it completely disappears and then you can’t access any list of profiles you already liked. From the FAQ I understand that if I cross the person again (which might never happen) the profile will appear again in my timeline. But what if I pressed “like” by mistake, or changed my mind and now want to send a “hello” instead? Under preferences, you can see the list of all the people you “hid”, all the people you “blocked”, but nowhere can you find all the people you “liked”, which makes absolutely no sense. It’s as if people I “hid” were more important than people I “liked”...

  • New Update with the new layout is horrible

    The new update forcing u to scroll through every profile is horrible! Who thought this was a good idea? So we can see the ads more??? Uhh not on here to see ads.. epic fail. It’s slower & inefficient running through profiles.
    At least allow users to enable the previous layout and as an option/addition dive into or “zoom” into the new layout to get “closer” to viewing profiles in the current format. Like u would use a map.

    Read your reviews.. I’m not the only one not liking this change. And I don’t bother to write reviews. I usually just delete and move on.

  • Too Greedy

    I liked this app, and the premise behind it but like so many others they need to make it pay - that’s where the app has collapsed.
    Now when I login I always get at least 2 pop-up adverts, the pictures of other people take up the whole screen rather than a scrolling gallery with thumbnail imaged (which was much better). There are also frequent full page adverts in the scrolling home page, along with regular pushes to buy the premium option.
    The last straw was yesterday when this app used a push notification to send a third party advert.
    The original error was in making it cheaper for girls than boys - girls are much more likely to buy premium dating app options than boys.
    From 5 stars down to 1 - such a shame.

  • Don’t like the new version

    I deleted my account because the new version of the app which has been around for a few months is not user friendly at all. It’s terrible. They also make it really really hard for you to find where and how to delete your account which just made me more annoyed. I contacted them and told me directly that there app wasn’t as good but they didn’t take notice. Too many ads, pop ups and fake message notifications where they trick you into checking the app. Ads and pop ups constantly get in the way. The way the app is now, you come across the same people every time and it’s really hard to come across many new ones. Any of the other apps are better than this. Bumble is so much easier to use for a start.

  • Decent app but 0 stars for usability and UX

    The app is ok, I’ve been a user for a couple years I have even paid for the premium service, and I’ve met people through it... but...
    The user experience is not good, you can’t unmatch someone by simply pressing X so their profile keeps appearing over and over again which at the end, fills up your app with unwanted or “not-so-interesting” profiles and trying to get to those new and possibly interesting profiles, takes a whole lot of time... which completely ruins the experience.
    If I press X , is like the app to know that I’m unliking that profile and I’m not interested in crossing paths with them again ... expecting me to block all the profiles I’m not interested in, is ridiculous.

  • This version - unusable on iPhone 7

    Incredibly buggy, freezes constantly, absolutely full of advertising, better off with Tinder any day.
  • Same copies profiles from other apps

    I noticed the same profiles from other dating apps tht were bots on the other apps. I’m convinced that these apps take old member profiles and recycle them to keep the population inflated.
    There were 2 I confirmed had the same pics from tinder, which were bots on tinder, so I looked at the path where we crossed it’s says they live on my street.
    I know and see all of my neighbors lol and here is no chance these peoples “happn” to cross paths with me by coincidence in a matter of a day on my street.
    These apps r all a waste of time when u consider the time u invest for a slight chance at nothing.

  • MORE LOGIN/SIGN UP OPTIONS!!!

    I think I have installed and uninstall this app for than five times. Simply because the lack of people connected to the app, plus expensive. As well as not being able to create a profile from scratch and having to log into Facebook to get your Happn account activated.

    From all of the times that I have downloaded this app it has only showed me the option to log in via Facebook. Therefore I would HIGHLY ask, for an update with at least a second login/sign up option that can be made via gmail/email.

    I will give it a month or two if not, will be uninstalling the app for the last time. I like the concept of the app but it really needs improvement.

    Hi, happn has heard your request: you can now register with just a phone number! Finding the people you’ve crossed paths with has never been this easy… Looking forward to seeing you on the app 😉 The happn team
