Is Hily Scam? Why Real Users Trust the Dating App

The Hily dating app was launched in 2017. Eight years later, it has remained true to its original vision—build an app that emphasized authenticity where folks are encouraged to enjoy the process of dating and build meaningful connections. Hily has become an online home where members embody the spirit of “Date as You Are”.

That’s a lot of feel-good stuff, but is Hily legit? Let’s dig deeper to answer that question.

Hily Dating Success Stories

So many people have found connections and love on Hily that they could not find elsewhere! Here are some takes from folks who have had amazing experiences on the Hily app. 

For example, Nate (he asked to change his real name) was skeptical about dating apps and his romantic prospects in general. He was adamant that he would never create a profile on the Hily app or any other dating site. Also, he was hesitant of the app, thinking is Hily a scam or just fake. The problem was that he had a well-meaning but very pushy friend who kept insisting he give Hily a try. Eventually, he caved. 

Nate admits he started getting messages from cute women, but kept refusing to respond. Then he met Octavia. Long story short, Nate’s grumpiness at his nosy friend dissolved as he and Octavia fell in love. Now, the running joke is how two folks who hate dating apps found lifelong love with Hily.

Octavis shared her version of the story and some extra facts regarding her Hily app experience. Unlike Nate, she is okay with dating in general, but her issue is with lame, played out first dates. So, she made it clear in her profile that she would only respond to guys who could come up with something creative. Well, Nate pulled off something she found cute and “awww inspiring”. He asked her to join him taking care of dogs and cats at the local animal shelter. She said yes, and now she has a great boyfriend and a one-eyed rescue kitty.

Hily—An App Worth Trying

Hily is an app that deserves so much more attention than it gets. If you are more interested in deeper connections than an online dating meat market—give this dating app a chance. I think it deserves much higher ratings on sites like Trust Pilot than it gets, because these Hily users seem to find genuinely amazing relationships on the app.
