Hinge Review: What Is Hinge? Is Hinge Free? Should You Use Hinge? Cost, Hinge FAQ, Is Hinge A Good Dating App? How Does Hinge Work?

Hinge is a dating app created to get people to get off the app and meet in person. It was known for those seeking relationships and did away with the left/right swipe trend of Tinder/Bumble and required users to tap heart (like) or tap x (skip).

 

Hinge Dating App: When Did Hinge Come Out? Who Owns Hinge?

Hinge has been around since 2012 (officially launched February 2013) and in June 2018 Match Group acquired 51% stake in the company with a 12-month window to acquire remaining shares. In February 2019 it did just that.

It’s an unfortunate exit from a customer perspective (since Match is where all dating apps go to die) but I am hopeful that some bugs will at least work out now that it has more resources from a technical perspective. Keep on reading to learn how does Hinge work, who is it for, what it can’t do and what to expect.

Hinge Review: How Does Hinge Work? Is Hinge A Good Dating App? Hinge Dating App Review

Is Hinge a good dating app? Yes, Hinge is a good dating app but it is also notorious for being a glitchy app. If you are OCD about that kind of thing or always concerned about what it does  mean when I do X but Y happens, this is not the app for you. If you can overlook this major con, there is some great hope for you.

Hinge often gets compared to with Tinder and Bumble dating apps but not all apps are the same. There is not a 100% overlap on profiles and some apps are more superficial than others.

(see Tinder App Review as well as Bumble App Review as well a side by side comparison among all three).

Hinge brands itself as the app that is designed to be deleted. Instead of a quick swipe a la Tinder, Bumble, you have to tap an ‘X’ for no and check mark for yes. Sounds great – but that’s where the optimism stops.

Below is an overview of the app including demographics, what to expect, how does it compare to other apps, common mistakes made, what to avoid and how to get the most out of the app so you can have more success with likes, matches and quality conversations and dates.

Is Hinge A Good Dating Site? What Is The Success Rate On Hinge?

It’s one of the more popular apps out there today but during 2020 and the pandemic, many people have suggested the quality of profiles has gone down and monetization efforts have made it difficult to find people you are interested in.

Your ability to be successful on Hinge or any other app depends on looks, demographics, photos, smiles, style, career, education, approachability as well as patience, self-awareness and realistic expectations.

Hinge is different from most swipe apps in that it requires users to tap a heart or an ‘X’ to move on. The idea is that people spend more time on profiles and have to be more strategic with respect to what the tap the heart on (profile prompt, specific photo etc).

Is Hinge A Hookup App? Is Hinge For Relationships? 

Like all dating apps, Hinge is an introduction app. Most people seek relationships on the app but some people use it to hookup. Writing “no-hookups” in a profile does nothing as some people view it as a challenge. If you sleep with someone after one date it’s possible they will ignore you after or assume that’s all you want.

It’s best to take your time and get to know people than assume the words of a stranger are truthful, honest. People can change their mind about you after you sleep with them or say they are looking for a relationship but also are open to hookups.

The ability to screen profiles, ask questions and read people are absolutely crucial if you want to get to know someone, understand their intent and hope to build a relationship with them. Don’t expect dating apps to serve as background checks for you.

 

Hinge FAQ’s: How To Like Someone On Hinge, How To Swipe Right On Hinge

Instead of swiping left or right like on Tinder or Bumble, you have to click the heart button on a photo or answer to a prompt to signal a like. After you do so, you will be given the option to send a comment along with a like which is highly recommended.

 

Hinge FAQ: Good Hinge Prompts? Best Hinge Prompt Answers? 

View this guide for ideas and tips on which prompts to use, and how to answer the questions. Not all prompts are the same. Some are awful, cliche and show an unattractive, superficial side to you. Use caution.

 

Is Hinge Free? Hinge Subscription Price? Do You Have To Pay For Hinge

The basic elements of the dating app are free including sending comments on photos and prompts but it costs extra for certain premium benefits such as extra likes, see who likes you and advanced filters.

Hinge Preferred Membership is a subscription based service that costs $19.99/month on a monthly subscription, $39.99/quarter ($13.33/month), or $59.99/6-month term ($9.99/month).

Hinge Review: How To Use Hinge: Setting Up A Hinge App Profile

Even if you manage to fill out all the recommended fields, there are still the prompts. Hinge has some cute prompts and some cringeworthy prompts you can view some of my favorites here. You can tell a lot about a person they way they not only choose their prompts but answer them as well.

I am all for making it easy to X out any profiles that self-sabotage their efforts on dating apps rather than nudging them to do better. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

Unlike Bumble and Tinder, Hinge is not a left-swipe, right-swipe app. You have to tap the like button (heart button) to send a like on Hinge. You can like a photo or a prompt. Once you click the heart icon on Hinge, the app will provide an option to confirm said like and/or to add a comment as well.

It’s recommended that users send comments along with likes to improve response rates, show intent and provide confirmation that you read the user’s profile. Similarly, if you are not interested in someone, you can tap the X button.

Hinge Dating Site: What Are Hinge Dealbreakers? How Do Hinge Preferences Work?

Hinge Deal-breakers make your preferences strict. If selected, Hinge will not show you anyone who doesn’t match that preference. Hinge preferences and deal breakers are not visible to others.

Occasionally you might see people not fitting your dealbreakers and that can be done to others to change things in their bio and the system not automatically updating. Preferences prioritize people shown to you but they are not dealbreakers.

More on Hinge deal-breakers here including which are free and which are available only to paid users.

 

Hinge Prompts, Question: What Are The Hinge Questions?

When it comes to prompts, one cute, playful prompt/answer is fine but if you don’t reveal anything about yourself, your passions, curiosities, ambitions, guilty pleasures etc. then you can’t expect people to take you seriously. Hinge is notorious for cliche answers to prompts (see how many cliche profile answers you have by reviewing the dating profile bingo card).

Conversely, Coffee Meets Bagel uses standard prompts where people are more thoughtful and detailed in their responses. Some Hinge questions and prompts are better at creating more open-ended topics ripe for spirited debate and connections. Don’t ignore this part of a profile.

Check back regularly as Hinge updates their question list and allows you to update them over time. Think of prompts as a conversation starter opportunity (avoid inside references or requests) and focus on ways to invite questions and comments naturally.

 

Best Hinge Photos To Use On A Hinge Profile (Men, Women)

So you filled out the fields, added some good prompts and answers now comes the photos. Hinge (unlike other apps) requires 6 photos. This is a bit challenging for many folks on dating apps who don’t have that many decent photos.

Unfortunately, many take the stand of ‘you only look as attractive as your worst photo’ so if you add filler photos to meet the requirement, you can be self-sabotaging your efforts.

This seems to be one of the biggest pain points of the apps for users but there are ways around if you know who to ask. Here is a primer on dating app photos to focus on in your profile.

 

Can Guys Message First On Hinge?

Unlike Bumble, men can message first on Hinge. They actually have several options – they first have to like a photo or answer to a prompt, afterward they can add a message to that like.

Typically messages with likes get more responses than likes alone unless the message is cliche, vulgar or lazy.

Browsing Profiles on Hinge: Can You Browse Profiles On Hinge?

Once the profile is set up you are now ready to start swiping but not so fast. Hinge is popular in many large cities but a little thin in suburbs where Tinder is still King (in terms of # of profiles, engagement).

Assuming there are enough people in your area, demographics (mostly used by 25-45 year olds) then the tapping function of Hinge is where many people get flustered.

The main knock on the dating app is that it appears tapping X or the check mark does not register and the profile re-appears. Similarly messages sent to profiles appear to not go through as profiles re-appear. Did it get sent? Was it a bug or did it go through and should I not seem needy. These are all the things going through people’s minds when using Hinge.

 

Can You Hide Your Account On Hinge, Does Hinge Have Incognito Mode?

No, but you can pause your account to hide your profile from others. Scroll down for details. Hinge has no Incognito Mode nor any method to block contacts. The League does has it though (somewhat).

 

How Do You Change Visibility On Hinge?

Go to settings to limit certain aspects of your profile being visible like gender, education and more.

 

How Does The Hinge Algorithm Work? How Does Hinge Decide Who To Show You?

Hinge chooses who to show you based on age, location, preferences, paid user boosts, new profile boosts etc.  Hinge, like many other apps aims to hook new users by displaying attractive profiles and over time regressing to the mean. Once hooked, users are tempted to upgrade to allow for more profiles to be viewed before running out.

Hinge takes into consideration your demographics and displays somewhat relative profiles based on preferences and your attractiveness.

The more desirable you are, the more you will be shown to others. This is not to mean that you need to be a model to do well on Hinge but self-sabotage efforts can definitely limit your ability to be successful.

This is all the more reason to start off with a good profile rather than test out one that is unproven, self-sabotaging or lacks effort, creativity or enthusiasm.

 

How Do You Match On Hinge? How Do You See Who Likes On Hinge? 

Hinge allows free users to see who likes them in their ‘likes you’ tab but only one at a time. An action is needed to see the next like (either liking them to create a match or skipping the like profile and like sent is removed). If a user likes you and you like them back, they will move from the likes you tab to your match tab.

Matching requires both people to like each other’s profiles, photos or prompts. Once this happens, a pop-up will show that you two have matched. Not all match notifications are in real-time nor are you able to see all your matches at once (you may have to clear out your queue).

Hinge is for relationships, quality matches not volume usage and casting the widest net possible. With that said, users are more likely to match with others if they send a message along with their like. Don’t just send a hi, heyy, what’s up line as that shows lack of effort and creativity.

There is no match button on Hinge. Just go to conversations.

 

Hinge Standouts Feature: How To Get Featured On Hinge Standouts?

Hinge standouts feed is a way to highlight prompt responses of users. The users with the most likes and comments from others users directed at their prompts are usually featured on Hinge to encourage more thoughtful, fuller profiles and answers to prompts.

Can You Send A Like Instead Of A Rose On Hinge? What Does A Rose Mean On Hinge

With standouts, you can only send a rose. You cannot send a like unless they appear in your regular queue. It’s Hinge’s way of a super like. Don’t do it, super creepy.

 

Can You Send Pictures On Hinge? Can You Send Videos, Gifs On Hinge? 

Yes, you can send pictures on Hinge, but you will have to load them through a 3rd party like Instagram, Imgur etc.

 

What Do Roses On Hinge Do, Is Sending A Rose On Hinge Weird? Creepy?

Hinge is the latest app to join this super like effort. Users receive one free rose per week. Users can buy more but then others can’t tell if you are giving your weekly rose allotment to them or just splurging money on every girl.

Likes sent with roses are sent to the top of the likes queue. Roses can be sent from the standouts queue or the discover queue.

Hinge Roses (Old Cost)

1 rose costs $3.99, 6 roses cost $19.99, and 12 roses cost for $29.99.

Hinge Roses (Current Cost)

3 for $9.99, 12 for $12.99, 50 for $74.99

Hinge Boost – Is Hinge Boost Worth It? What Is Boost On Hinge?

Whenever a user creates an account on Hinge, that user will experience a boost on the site where their profile will be shown to an extremely high number of users for the first few hours, days.

This is why waiting to create a profile is extremely important once you have good photos, prompts and answers. More on this new user experience. It’s far more effective to invest in your profile and photos rather than paying for increased visibility.

Hinge Login Issues, Errors, Can’t Log In (Banned), Banned From Hinge

If you go on any dating forum, one of the most commonly asked questions has to do with Hinge login issues, inability to login and errors.

There are many reasons why this happens (some technical, some user behavior) and at the risk or alerting scammers, creeps to understand how to avoid detection I will not go into detail here but I will provide some tips to deal with this.

Hinge has a very strong set of terms of service. At the heart of it is being an app for relationship-minded folks. If you don’t follow their terms directly or indirectly, online or offline, you can get banned regardless of your subscription status.

 

Does Hinge Notify People Of Screenshots? 

Yes, you can screenshot on Hinge. No, Hinge does not notify users of screenshots. Similarly, Hinge does not have read receipts. This is a bit confusing, I know because of the ‘delivered’ notification on messages.  Again there are no Hinge screenshot notifications.

How To Delete Photos On Hinge, Can’t Delete Photos On Hinge

Once you add photos, you can’t delete them, only replace or update them. Don’t upload photos to fill up the 6 slots because once you do, you won’t be able to delete them without replacing them.

That’s why you see people with fewer than 6 photos because they never uploaded 6 photos to begin with.

 

Hinge Photos Rules: Do I Have To Have 6 Photos On Hinge? How Many Pictures Do You Need On Hinge? 

No, but once you do add 6 photos, you won’t be able to delete them without replacing them. If you want 3 photos on Hinge, don’t upload more than 3 photos on Hinge. If you want 4 photos on Hinge, don’t upload more than 4 photos on Hinge.

Edit: Hinge has recently updated their stance on photos. They now allow users to have 4-6 photos on a profile.

It means the message was sent. That is it. There are no read receipts on Hinge. Some people try to switch conversations to WhatsApp to see read receipts. More on messaging etiquette on dating apps here.

 

Does Hinge Show Inactive Profiles, Users? Does Hinge Show You Old Profiles?

Yes, if a user swipes too much, they will eventually come across old profiles, inactive users.  In 2019, Hinge claimed 75% of profiles shown were active in last 3 days. No updates have been provided since and so it could be that the number has stayed the same or plummeted.

 

Does Hinge Show Your Preferences?

No.

Last names are optional but if you have it enabled, it will only be displayed upon matching. Last names provide a sense of authenticity. Not displaying it can be seen as a red flag.

Unfortunately not. Not everyone uses the app excessively nor has wide open criteria on their preferences. While you may see many people in your area, they may not see you based on their preferences or popularity (like queue).

 

Hinge Just Joined – How Long Does Just Joined Last On Hinge

A few days, roughly 3-14 days. It shouldn’t matter as most people are on the app for much longer than that so unless the user created a new profile, this badge shouldn’t have any bearing on whether you should contact them or not.

 

Can You Like Someone Twice On Hinge? Will Someone Reappear On Hinge?

Hinge recycles profiles. If a profile reappears, it’s likely they saw your like and didn’t do anything or they didn’t see it yet because they have too many likes in their queue or decided to ignore you. Doesn’t matter. Hinge Likes Don’t Expire.

 

Do Hinge Likes Go Away? Do Hinge Likes Disappear? Do Hinge Likes Expire?

Yes, if the person you liked didn’t reciprocate and skipped your profile the like will no longer show for either of you.

Hinge is great because unlike Bumble, you can send a comment to stand out. It is not great in that it requires 6 photos (you are as only as attractive as your worst photo) and has no bio to talk about yourself.

Similarly, women can assess effort with comments on Hinge, but then of course, any guy can send you comments on Hinge making it overwhelming at time. There is also no incognito mode like with Bumble.

Lastly, the Hinge algorithm can be rather stubborn and unrelenting showing you unattractive and undesirable people too much. More about the Hinge algorithm here.

 

Hinge Voice Prompts

In addition to Hinge text prompts and photo prompts, Hinge now has voice prompts so you can record your voice answer to one prompt (in addition to the 3 written prompts). Generally, speaking it’s helpful for people to hear your voice unless it’s not that flattering.

It’s not. You don’t have to pay for Hinge to have success on it. Focus on your photos, prompts, captions and be patient as well as realistic. Better matches can be made by investing in yourself and your profile rather than paying for boosts and other premium features.
