About this app

Hinge, the online dating app designed to be deleted

Welcome to Hinge, the online dating app for people who want to go on their last first date. With profiles and prompts that show your personality through text, photos, video, and voice, you could have meaningful conversations that lead to great dates. Whether you’re looking to start dating with intention, or you’re unsure about your dating goals, our goal is to help you go out on promising dates.

Our dating app is built on the belief that anyone looking for meaningful connections should be able to find it. By inspiring intimate, in-person connections, we aim to create a less lonely world. With detailed profiles, meaningful likes and a nobel-prize winning algorithm, dating & relationships are at the core of everything we do.

Hinge is about fostering real connections built on compatibility and intention. By encouraging thoughtful interactions and helping daters express who they truly are, Hinge makes it easier to find dates that share the same values, goals, and relationship intentions. Whether you’re looking for love or to meet new people, every feature is designed to move you beyond casual chats and into meaningful connections.One of our latest features, Signals, makes it easier to spot daters who've shown up with care and consistency on the app. A badge on their profile gives others more context about how they engage, helping lead to better conversations and real dates.

Hinge is helping to make online dating a safe space, with prompts and a Match Note feature that lets you share information with your date before they match with you. Our safety center also allows you to block offensive language from incoming likes, and we’ll automatically hide comments we think could be disrespectful so you can continue focusing on building real connections.

How we get you off dating apps

💌 We quickly learn your type. Tell us your relationship type and dating preferences so that we can help introduce the best people to you.

💗 We give you a sense of someone’s personality. You’ll get to know potential dates through their unique answers to prompts, as well as information like religion, height, politics, dating intentions, relationship type, and much more.

💘 Every match begins with someone liking or commenting on a specific part of your profile. Our latest feature, Convo Starters, offers personalized ideas inspired from someone’s Prompt answers and photos to help you spark engaging conversations from the start.

🫶 We want you to feel confident about meeting people in person and going on great dates. Selfie Verification makes it easier for daters on Hinge to ensure that they are who they say they are.

❤️ We ask how your dates are going. After exchanging phone numbers with a Match, we’ll follow up to hear how your date went so we can make better recommendations.

As a gay man, I've used this app for a few years and the experience isn't the worst available but it's also not great. It seems like users in your type range are often only in standouts and don't come across the regular feed. I used a discount to try HingeX and it's the exact same experience but with the ability to send unlimited likes. I've had more success and luck on other apps for free. save your money and don't buy their pro tiers. not worth it.

I can only think of one positive thing about this app. I am positive I won't be trying this one again. If you do not pay the outrageous amount for each month you are SEVERELY limited in the number of swypes per day. You have to jump through so many hoops to get verified but what does that even serve a purpose for when most you have to swipe past are bots. If it isn't a bot there is a good chance it isn't even the actual person in the photos with the fishing or scam accounts that are on as well.

Gimmicky app. It has a feature that will notify you of someone you most likely match well with; issue is I didn't get halfway through completing my new account when it claims I matched well with someone. I think the app was saying matches are 8x more likely to work. The lady I matched with was respectfully not the kind of woman I was into. Another feature issue is that there is no option to avoid people with dogs, If I'm allergic to dogs for example.
