About this app

happn - the dating app that lets you find people that destiny has put on your path.

With more than 140 million users across the globe, happn is the best way to meet people nearby, who are already in your area. We’re the only real-life dating app. You only see people you’ve crossed paths with in real life or that you have common interests with, so you know you’re already in each other’s lives and that's where the magic can happen. Have you ever wondered if the person you smiled at over at that cool cafe was interested in you? With happn, you’ll never have to wonder again!

Find your Crush in your favourite spots

The advantage of happn lies in its ability to foster meaningful connections with those who share your daily routine. By allowing to meet based on geographic proximity and the places you usually go to, happn encourages to connect in familiar environments, thus promoting relaxed and authentic dates. No more stress of the first dates and encounters! There’s no better icebreaker than talking about your favorite spots: bars, clubs, restaurants, parks etc.

True and safe dating experiences

* Your exact location is never revealed
* You keep control of what is displayed on your online profile
* You don’t have to worry about rejection: the person will never know you like them unless they Like you back and Crush
* You decide who you talk with: only after a crush, can you send/receive a message
* You can tell when you’re ready to meet for a date through our special feature in the chat to avoid the pressure of asking
* You can always change your mind at any time: happn is consent-driven
* No pressure: friendship, chat or a real love story - you decide

How does it work

It’s simple. When you cross paths with another happn user, their profile will appear on your app. Did someone catch your eye? Like them secretly. We promise that the person will never know unless they Like you back and it’s a Crush! You can then start to chat, see if there’s a spark, and maybe arrange to meet up.

Crush with confidence and safety

- The happn dating app is based on the principle of reciprocity: you will never have a chat with someone you’re not interested in.
- Profile certification: participate in creating a safe and trusted environment by verifying your profile and encouraging others to do the same.
- At happn, confidentiality is our priority: your location is never visible to other members, only the places you crossed paths with them are shown and you can deactivate if you don’t feel comfortable with it.

Meet when you’re ready

Not sure when you should ask your Crush on a date? Afraid they might say no? Or are you sick of the pressure when someone asks you out too soon? No more stress. Now you can tell us when you’re ready to meet, directly in your chat with your Crush. We’ll let you know when they’re ready too.

The happn dating app is free to download and use. If you would like access to more features, you can switch to Premium by purchasing a subscription. With Premium, you get access to the list of people who have Liked your profile and you can send SuperCrushes to your favorite profiles so you’re sure to stand out. So what are you waiting for?

1) The map has to update on a live basis, eg. Press on a "locate me" button which it hasn't and that's horrible because of this you can miss potential happners. 2) the search area should also be wider so that you can see whose nearby live at that point. 3) Also sometimes I feel like it is fake because no-one interacts, old profiles should be deleted. Fix these for 5 stars? Yes? Edit: when you updafe the app let us know what you added or improved.

Installed it in the hopes of it having a better algorithm than Tinder. Unfortunately that isn't true Haven't had a single like in months and when I use the boost I sometimes get a few likes. When I unmatched some old matches I suddenly got "new" likes. Turns out its just the people I unmatched. Only reason it gets 2 stars is because the boosts lasts way longer than on tinder (24h vs 30 minutes) but it wil be ~€9 each. The premium fee is ridiculously expensive, sitting close to €30 a month.

- Guessing-game: If I don't find a person an match after three times, it should be thrown out of the game. Also. I want to click to the profile during the game. - There is basically no incentive for users to react on matches to a certain point. - It should be easier to set the app on pause. - There is no incentive for users to fill in their profile. - There should be a better check on profile pics.
