Not teen oriented

As a teen you definitely don’t want hook ups and also teens can’t even use this app as it is an 18+ app making it a non teen app 18 classifies as an adult so the ap should be 14-17 as this are the proper teen ages

You need to pay to chat and meet people.

Useless if you don’t pay.

Dear, Thanks for your feedback, we will fix the issue in the latest version. Best regards!

App crashes, no way to connect with people

First off I want to say I never buy anything in apps as a general personal guideline. That being said, there’s no way in the free version to message, go back to or add people on other social media. They have to have other contact info in their profile to be able to do that. You also can’t see who (or, in the case of a bot account, what) liked your page and this restricts the likelihood that you get matched, or even see if you would like the person who liked you if that makes sense.

Also the app started crashing with text in I believe Chinese coming up with a “x” button, which just screams “click me for virus content”. I don’t know if it’s the app or third party software interfering but whatever it is, this issue combined with the slightly more important first reasons I gave is why I rate this app so low. I hope in the next update more options like being able to see people’s social media accounts and add them will open up, I think this app has potential but isn’t doing the best with its current available features

Help

I downloaded this app under the impression that I would find matches. However, without a subscription you cannot view messages or likes sent to you. Although the app is advertised as free. You also cannot send messages without the subscription so I am confused as to how you are supposed to meet people on this app.

Okay

The app is okay but I decided I didn’t want to be on it and there was no option to delete my account. I want it deleted

Dear, you can try these steps in app to delete your account: Me->Settings->Account-> Delete Account. Best regards!

A lot of potential, but major issues.

Alright so I downloaded your app because it came up on the advertising (good advertising platform). Once I downloaded the app I noticed a significant amount of issues that makes this application dangerous.

Problem 1:
There is not verification of age process and even worse is that the age you put is not locked. Meaning people can simply lie about their age.

Solution 1:
Create two separate brackets, one for 18+ and the other for under 18. This should mitigate a massive risk factor within the two age groups. Have your age locked, once you put in your age, it stays that way forever.

Reason 1:
Now more than ever, we cannot stress the importance of safety on the internet. Your app must make sure to have these clear separations of age groups noted to prevent predatory activities.

Problem 2:
No delete feature is present within your app.

Solution 2:
Add delete feature in the app

Reason 1:
There are some people who will not like your app and as such may want to delete it. By allowing the user to delete your app, it will help prevent cluttering your server with inactive accounts.

Dear, Thanks for your rating! As the 2 issues you mentioned: 1. Age issue Hoya is a dating app, only the users older than 18 are allowed to register. As the user guide of Appstore, users under 18 are not allowed to register in a dating app. 2. Account Deletion issue We have supported the account deletion feature in app, you can find it with the following steps: Me -> Settings -> Accounts -> Delete account. Best regards! Hoya Team

Dumb

It says want it’s for 12+ but the minimum age is 17, fix this plz

Potential

It’s got potential, it’s hard for me as a young queer to make friends or find a boyfriend— which adds on to why this is only 2 stars, can’t select which gender you want to swipe on and i don’t like women lol.
