Not worth it
Just another pay to play dating app
Not for you this is not it
I would like to say that this app is OK it’s just need a little bit of fixing like if you know a boy is talking to her or she force his body. You should bluff that person instantly because the app should already know that that person does not want to connect you with You and want to connect with you in a different way like that’s not a match. My experience with that was horrible. It was the people the people are horrible. I had this app for a long time and it takes you a long time to find literally just one match and that would match is a horrible match at this point mention I did that download the app if they just don’t wanna be on the app to play with women’s feelings and want them to do some things to them now we can’t have that I just feel like this app shouldn’t take that in consideration they should know that if this man does not want her for her, are you for she block him for her find her a person that is actually looking for love not a person that is looking for less after ready to 100 people of trying to find my person I have got tired. I am tired of doing this. I cannot do it no more that makes me just want to stop being it entirely like it just makes me feel disgusting at the end I can’t tell you who entirely tired. I am so tired to all the women and men. I hope they find their one and this app cannot do that for you. Find someone in the real world and get to know for real this app when I get you there. it will only make you feel at the end tire and end in agony and pain. this app is not gonna make you feel like you wanna keep like if this app is gonna make you feel like there ain’t no one for you so find your person outside. It’s OK to not have someone keep looking at the end of the day because the people in this app pay for you thank you for reading this and I feel like the boys on here are the ones that are doing a reviews like they like it’s amazing women. No you just see someone you like. I’m pretty sure y’all all got blocked like that’s how you know. I’m not playing. I blocked them like water weird, if I don’t understand you or we’re coming, you get blocked like can y’all say hi how are you like? Is that hard?
This app is a joke
Nobody replies. The people on here are just chasing a social following. Also if you’re a guy they’ll make you pay. DO NOT DO IT. You can unsubscribe all you want but they’ll still find ways to charge your card to the point your bank has to get involved. Don’t ever use this app.
N
Not even a single reply or an even not a match all it needs is subscription for everything and nothing else even a single women don’t reply or message u !?
Terrible
Most of the people are not even in my area so I cancelled the app the same day. It doesn’t show up on my Apple subscription but they charged me for to renew. I disputed this with my bank but don’t waste your time with this app. More of a headache than it’s worth!!!
Update: they still charged me under different name 5 days later. They are being investigated for fraud now!

Rip off
You pay and then they take what you paid for and delete it because your subscription expires
Even though you paid for the features
If you don’t use what you paid for it will vanish

Absolute scam.
$15/wk? For AI created accounts?
Fake profiles
Definitely a bunch of fake profiles on here. Even with a subscription you can’t see everyone who likes you and still shows you ppl out of set range. Definitely a bad experience.
⚠️ Read Before Installing
Most accounts are either inactive or bots and the ones that aren't will leave you in read, even the ones who matched you.
You'll also see more accounts and get more likes when you're not subscribed or when you're subscription ends in an attempt by the butt-nugget devs to get you to subscribe (again) so you can unblur who liked you and message your likes.
Shady company. You have a better chance on Tinder

Sexist
I have multiple friends on hilly, the girls get to see who likes them every single time FOR FREE, but the men are forced to pay to match with anyone. Offensive and sexist. Do not recommend
Money making scheme
This app is charges you to do every single little basic thing that you can do on any other dating app while still charging you for a subscription. For example, if somebody matches with you, you have to pay for the right to reveal the person before you can even initiate contact. Then after reveal, you have to pay for an icebreaker to even send that person a message. Why even do you have to pay for a subscription? If the most basic things that you can do in most other apps don’t require this. I mean, it’s one thing if they want to ensure. But in the event of fake accounts, you have to spend to even see if it’s a fake account. Plus, I’ll see you pay the money for the review and in the contact and you have the subscription; then you never get a response from the people. Just spending a lot of money for nothing. This app is way too much paywall for me.
So few people
Every one is bots and there are hardly anyone in the area
Believe it when I see it
This app constantly says error so I’m deleting this app mad ugly people on there anyways like 90% of women are either cat fish or chopped af
Sad day
Did everything suggested. Paid for app as well. Not a single interaction. 😔
Got suspended for no reason
The guys were asking for pictures and I set my boundaries. Apparently that was a no no. I did not break any rules and yet I was banned. Don’t use this app. They emailed me saying due to security reasons they are not able to give me any specifics. I would man up and say what I did wrong but all I did was stand my ground and say no. I’m not comfortable with this and that conversation.
.
My account got suspended for no reason I hate this app
Great at being bad
Ayyyy if you love seeing potential matches that you are attracted to, but they are like two states away, this is the app for you!
New update: if you buy 5 unblurs and then have two matches to unblur. And then you hit view all, it takes all five that you paid for to unblur the two.
Also the moment you cancel they push through next weeks subscription.
I spoke with the help rep and she showed me terms and conditions that claim this is how they operate and there was nothing they could do. Couldn’t even give me the three unblurs back after taking an additional weeks subscription from me.
Spent several months on here no matches. The majority of profiles were out of state. I really wouldn’t recommend using this app. This type of thing doesn’t happen on the more established dating apps. I was honestly shocked they couldn’t even throw me a couple unblurs just to resolve it.
Strongly recommend not using it.

Doesnt show the people liked me
People like me but they never come in my match cards. I don’t want to pay to an app that so greedy dont even give me my matches.
Worst app ever
Do not download!!!! They steal your money every month. If you don’t keep you confirmation ID and delete your app completely you won’t be able to get away from monthly charges. I’m having to dispute the charges through my bank now.
don’t recommend
i tried to sign in so many different ways the app said 18+ im 19 and it still logged me out everytime whats the point of 18+ if im a year older and cant log in ?
Worst app
You match with people they don’t respond or you match with them they send you 1 or 2 messages an never respond again. I’ve done all of the memberships and it doesn’t change anything. I’ve spent over 300-400 dollars on this garbage app
Just not a fit
Hily is just as bad as the other dating apps I have tried. It just isn’t a good fit for what I’m looking for in a dating app because it’s too expensive, shows people too far from my location, and is formatted the same as Hinge or Bumble.
Waste of time
The only reason I keep it is because I got a good deal on the lifetime premium membership so I can actually see/block all the ghosts. Seems like only men have to pay considering most of the profiles I send likes to are the only ones that view my profile. On that note, love that premium members get shown less or not at all. That’s a fact I’ve tested on other apps as well and it’s ridiculous that these companies get away with it. Save your time and don’t bother with this app. You’ll never meet anyone on it.
Not showing those that like me
Im tired of having to spend money just to see if someone likes me, it makes matching impossible and if I’m not going to see the people liking me then what’s the freaking point. Stupid app
Overpriced
You have to pay $20 just to be able to unblur 5 people and it’s a straight gamble because most of the time your unbluring people that are not very much NOT your type even when you sign up the app asks specifically what type your into and people who like your profile are the complete opposite, absolute waste of my $20 dollars terrible app, it’s basically just gambling your money
Trash
This app is trash I can barely create an account and they don’t disable because of fake profile so I look like a scammer too you ? I’m just trynna seek look out there
If I could give a negative 10 I would.
They tell you that females are the ones that communicate first?! That’s a flat out lie. You have to build up a flirt system to talk to dead profiles. No metric showing you when last active and you waste your massage first/flirt or text directly, all an incentive to hit a paywall or be featured a list of non local catered playlists
Pay to use
Pay to use simple
Pay to participate
Gave this app a good couple hours of engagement. Multiple people both liked and viewed my account yet at no point did I see or interact with any of them. Even working with the blurred images I was able to tell not one person that had interest was ever on my feed. Having to pay $25 to even see people is ludicrous
Can’t cancel subscription
I’ve canceled my subscription and deleted my account but they’re still making me pay and I can’t do anything. I’ve emailed and called and they’ve done nothing. DO NOT subscribe to this app!!!
DO NOT USE!!!!
If I could give negative stars I would let’s see if you want to delete your account it is super hard to an it says you have likes an ppl messageing you but no one dose do not use this app it sucks
0 stars
I would give this negative stats if I could. It gives YOUR specific pinpointed LOCATION. I tried to turn it off and even turned off sharing location in settings and it did not work. HUGE SAFETY CONCERN!!!!!! Go with any other app that cares about user preference and safety!!!!!!!!!
Scam
Don't purchase a subscription, you'll go thru hell just trying to cancel it and they continue to charge you every week. And it's going back thru hell just to get a refund
Its ads and pay to play
It’s constant ads, and they keep telling me I have likes but you can only view them if you want to pay money. And I am almost positive half the people on there are bot accounts
wack
Bunch of underage gals on the app, becareful
Butt.
I have never left a review before, this app is garbage everything is behind a paywall
Price vs features
I have been testing this out to see if I want to subscribe but have noticed that even the DMs I get where other people have paid to send them to me, I can’t view them until I pay as well. No thanks
Rip off
You pay for sub then two unblurs they want more money so you can see them it’s rip off
Nonstop billing
I would not recommend this site. You have to pay for everything you do, even if you get a membership you have to pay additionally to unblurred the photos of who sent you a message.
Scam, horrible app. Continues to charge after you cancel subscriptions
I had cancelled my 9.99 subscription, closed my account, and deleted the app. I was then being charged 24.99 a week for a month for a subscription “through the app” that I didn’t even have installed . I emailed their support team repeatedly with no response. I had to reinstall the app to speak to support that was an ai bot that kept giving the same generated answers. They refused to give me any contact with a person through email or phone. If I could give less than one star I would.
Ha
It’s a joke don’t bother (money pit)
Good app but overpriced
The app itself is good and easy to use but you get next to nothing unless you pay for things or pay for premium + which the monthly charge is very expensive
Expensive
I just can’t justify spending all that money or dating online after this app. Like tik tok for dating
Pay for every little thing
You can pay for premium which allows you to unblur TWO likes. If you want to unblur you can purchase more. Seems pretty scammy to me. The people I unblurred were in my area and parameters but never showed up in my feed. Basically once they like you they apparently disappear so you’re enticed to pay to see. My bad for falling for it.
cash grab
unrelentingly requesting money for even the most basic of dating app services. definitely one to avoid. they abuse things like unblurs and don't offer economical subscription options.
They WILL take your money
i never write reviews, but i had to for this app. be careful with this app. they will take your money even after you delete the app and your subscription ends. what's even worse is you can't dispute it to get your money back. i've tried to give this app a chance multiple times, and each time i'm left annoyed and disappointed. there's soooo many bugs and issues that they fail to fix, yet they constantly update the UI. this app is not worth the headache. and to the devs...STOP TAKING PEOPLE'S MONEY WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT!
Banned before I could even use it
I was literally putting in my interests and got banned
I hadn’t even used the app yet
I hadn’t even used the app yet
Price
they charge for everything
Stay away
Live in one of the most populated parts of the country(Los Angeles) and not a single person to meet within 100 miles. App is probably made to pay but receive no service. Stay away. Feels like a fraud website.
