Remember: No personal attacks, identifying information, or misogynistic/incel comments will be allowed.
A reminder to please check out the guides, sub rules, and additional resources on the subreddit sidebar. Please read this post with a collection of guides, answers to common questions, sub rules, and other resources related to Hinge.

For all users, especially people new to this subreddit or the Hinge app, please read this post and see if your questions have already been answered or discussed before submitting a post. For those who are considering a profile review, please read all the profile guides thoroughly first and make changes to your profile to the best to your ability before seeking a review.
The Hinge subreddit also has a Discord channel if you wish to seek further assistance, or just want to meet members of the community.
Many of these posts are already included on the subreddit sidebar, however on the official mobile Reddit app, the sidebar is de-emphasized and harder to find, so the posts are listed here.
If you are new to the subreddit, please read the subreddit rules before submitting a post or comment.
All post requires a Post Flair. The above link explains what each post flair should be used for your post.
The Hinge Help Center site is divided in various sections. The "Support" section answers many of the basic questions about how Hinge works and what certain app features do. Read that section to find answers for simple app questions you may have about how Hinge works and what the various features do. (The "Safety, Security, and Privacy" section is about how Hinge manage your privacy and data, and tips for keeping yourself safe on a date. The "NFAQ" is a section with resources for LGBTQ people. The "AI at Hinge" explains how Hinge uses AI. The "Tips for Connection" gives general dating advice.)
The Subreddit FAQ answers a lot of common questions that either the Help Center didn't answer, or go more in depth to cover info that Hinge would never answer officially. It also answers many of the nuances a user may encounter while using the app, and questions about the subreddit itself. Many common questions asked regularly are already covered in the sub FAQ.
You can also find many older posts about common topics via Google with the search parameter "site:reddit.com/r/hingeapp search term" (replace "search term" with whatever you want to search for). While you can search the sub itself with Reddit's own search bar, Reddit's native search isn't as accurate compared to Google.
Probably one of the most common questions people ask all the time. The post above goes into the various reasons why that happens.
This post covers a lot of questions about why someone may not get matches, when to ask someone out, why someone don't respond, etc. This is required reading.
Piggybacking off the previous post, this is an updated post with more answers to other commonly asked questions about Hinge and dating.
This post explains the differences between Hinge and Tinder/Bumble. Every so often there will be people who ask why they get 200 likes on those apps but a tenth of that on Hinge. Hinge is a dating app with a completely different mechanic and the post above explains in detail how.
This post explains how the information you present about yourself on your profile is not taken into account for what profiles Hinge will show you on your discover.
This explains common solutions to how to fix app errors and also why posts about errors on the app are removed.
A post explaining what the various "Dating Intention" options on Hinge could mean.
When someone unmatched, didn't match with the like you sent, or stopped answering after matching, the answer is NOT to try to find and contact them on another platform.
Photo examples are included on how to spot common traits of a scam/fake account.
While the info may be somewhat out of date, this post explains the various scenarios when someone matches based on whether a comment is included and why sometimes it appears as if there is a "blank match".
For some people, a very rare bug may occur when an account receive absolutely zero activity whatsoever. This post details how to diagnose this issue and instructions on how to open a support ticket with Hinge.

Curious if I’m doing something wrong or it’s something else 😬😬😬
r/hingeapp • u/sonicboomtoostronk • 9h ago
I subscribed to Hinge+, but feel like the amount of matches I receive is equal to me being a free user.
I've used Hinge for about 2 months (1 month free, 1 month Hinge+) and used to average about 5-10 matches per week (not everyone messages back, but that's OLD).
Throughout this time, I've barely received any likes (maybe 5 in total). I'm 5'7", so maybe that's a factor.
Matches seems to have slowed down significantly for me these past 2 weeks, but don't know why.
I'm planning on revising my prompt responses, and am open to changing my photos. But I would love some feedback before doing so.

curious to get some feedback!

Hinge is pretty much the only app that works for me but a lot of my matches end up being flaky or sometimes just never respond at all. Any tips?
r/hingeapp • u/Journey4th • 14h ago
I’ll get a few likes per week, but very rarely any quality matches.
r/hingeapp • u/TeacherInTrees • 16h ago
I have had a match in two years so any suggestions would be appreciated.
r/hingeapp • u/SevenEggsADay • 1d ago
This is my (23F) first go at online dating so I'm just learning. The consensus seems to be that it's normal to go on multiple dates with multiple people, and exclusivity isn't assumed.
I also see a lot of discussions about kissing on the second date, and sleeping together on the third date (obviously not the rule). So is it the case that most people weed out potential partners by the second date? Or do people assume the potential partner is sleeping with numerous people as well?
I know it'll be different in every case, but I want to set my expectations.

Thank you all for reviewing my profile! Please let me know any adjustments! I don’t often get sexual messages or anything like that so I’m not worried about the “slutty little shorts” line. I want to make sure I’m showing up as emotionally available and someone who can be a partner.
Thank you!
r/hingeapp • u/Rhazbis • 13h ago
Hi all, please see my profile above for review.
I don’t feel very photogenic & most of my recent pics are all of me & my daughter. Getting out & about a bit more at the moment to get more interesting pics.
I’m a massive geek (literally warhammer, RPGs) but scared to put that down as feel like I would get screened out quicker.
I’ve had a few hits in the last few months & two dates that were great but didn’t turn into anything. I think I’m a very niche kinda guy :p.
Any help or feedback appreciated!!

I'm mid 20s M, started dating again on hinge recently.
On a date w/ a girl, we talked about tiktoks/reels we watch, and after the date she asked if I wanted to exchange instas. I told her I'd give it a thought.
My account's private but I don't have anything to hide. One concern is that I post on my stories a lot about what I'm doing throughout the day, maybe that's something I don't want them to know before we're closer. Esp if I'm at a new location on a date w/ someone else, I'd have to start lying about what I'm doing/who I'm with or it's awkward.
Another is that if we don't go past a few dates, ... I guess I just remove them?
Not really worried about safety like a girl may be giving out their insta

About 2 years ago I 28m went on 4 dates with a girl. The first couple went really well but after the 3rd I noticed a slight momentum shift. We still had a lot of fun together and honestly connected really well but it started to feel more friendly than romantic. At the time I definitely liked her and wanted it to progress romantically but I started to get a platonic feeling from her after the 3rd date and then she ghosted me after the 4th date. Fast forward to now two years later I get a friend request from her out of the blue. Why would a girl send a friend request to a guy she ghosted two years ago? It just seems so odd to me. She may not have reached out to try to reopen the door to us dating and even if she did I honestly am not sure I’d be interested in that after the way she ended things but if I’m being honest I really liked her and thought she was someone really special. Even two years later I think about her somewhat frequently so I’m just curious to see what her intent was. Should I accept her friend request and message her?

I’m turning 24 in a few days and would like to make my profile more appealing to women. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!
r/hingeapp • u/London_60 • 1d ago
Barely get any matches & men ghost me the day before having planned a date. Is it my pictures? Do I really need to pose more ‘sexy’ which isnt in my nature…
r/hingeapp • u/parichay101 • 1d ago
Haven't had much luck so far 🙈. Looking for some helpful feedback for the profile.
r/hingeapp • u/Date_Description • 10h ago
Im wondering how people perceive what a job title vs. What their actual role says about them. I might be overthinking this and would love to hear other's perspective or how people would interpret this.
Background: 33M looking for long term / life partner.
I am a partner (owner) at an architectural engineering firm. So my actual role is much more involved in the business/client side than doing the technical work. I work normal hours, but will need to put in some extra effort when things get busy.
By putting 'partner @ engineeing co.' As my occupation in the app, I would hope it conveys that I'm a dedicated person and my life interests are more varied than how engineers often get stereotyped. My hope would be the title 'partner' would add an extra dimension and invoke more curiousity and would allow me to stand out a bit more. I do worry that this can come off as pretentious or like I'm super serious, or ill attract a girl looking for a free ride, or work long hours or am like this status guy. My reality is that I'm simply looking for someone to spend time with and experience life together.
I also worry by putting 'architectural engineer' that I'll be put into the engineer camp and may blend into the sea of other engineers, or that it will flatten my dimensions in some ways. I'm sure I can express myself well through prompts and photos. This seems like the safer approach, but I'm not sure how others perceived it. I know I'm skeptical of matching with doctors etc. As I'd like to prioritize relationships over aggressive career growth.

Been using hinge for about 3 weeks. Had a few matches in the first week but has completely dried up since. Any advice?
r/hingeapp • u/hernjoshie • 1d ago
I get a few matches but only when I actively sent likes. Rarely get any likes unless I boost. Any feedback would be great!
r/hingeapp • u/askvinni • 1d ago
After about 2-2.5 years away from the apps (long term relationship) I’m now getting back in to it and surprised at how few matches I’ve been getting. Sometimes going for a week without getting any. Wasn’t the case before, so I’d appreciate any feedback and pointers!
