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 people 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 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 start dating.

Dating 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.

Ratings and reviews

it's been a pretty terrible experience so far. every screen freezes and errors out. can't upload or change photos, I have no idea if my profile is even visible or working. seems like a cash grab dating app. after a couple days of using it... I am no longer shown any matches and there is no way to change their search algorithm preferences without paying. it's confirmed garbage.

Been on the app for over a month, and have only matched with bots. I can't match with anyone else because I've looked at all the available profiles, and once you do that you can't look at any more. Can't adjust the distance filter either, only age. Never had anyone cross paths with me, and even in the "vibes" category there's been like 3 people. I'm not paying, so I can't do anything on it, or even look at profiles. Easy uninstall.

Tl;DR Very promising but there were like three people on the whole app. Pros -very easy to use -showing nearby people / who have crossed your path is an amazing idea Cons -during setup, the app froze after each question and i had to force quit and reopen -not allowed to type in your favorite spots - you had to pick from a list. My mid-size city had one item to choose from, which just said duck pond. we don't even have one. -pretty much nobody on the whole thing.

What's new

"Early morning run", "Bad Bunny", "Wine and more wine", "Sunday market". Sounds like my weekend! But guess what? Hobbies have finally arrived on the app! Yep, you heard right. We’re rolling out some cool and unique hobbies that let you show off your true self. Get ready for some sparks of originality that bring excitement and help you match with people who share your interests.
