  • Send recorded voice and video messages
  • Make a move and get other members' attention
  • Manual searching is not available
  • You cannot contact other members unless you upload a profile picture
  • Unlimited chatting
  • Anonymous mesaging

There are several ways to communicate and connect with other members of HudApp. One of its best-contacting features is unlimited chatting. Video Calling is free and it has a special feature of blurred call if the members are not comfortable to see each others' faces yet. You can also send and receive photo messages. It gives the app an extra thumbs up since meeting people is the main purpose of any dating app.

Even if manual searching is not a feature of the app, you have the option to scroll and browse among the members and react to their profiles by clicking like or dislike. They call it endless scrolling which is similar to Tinder's Swiping feature. The difference is you can press the button of your choice, whether you like it or not. 

It is strongly encouraged that you should upload a profile picture before you start connecting with other members.

HUD App Profile Quality

profile
  • Profile photo is required before you can mingle with other members
  • Shows STD badge
  • Strict guidelines for photo uploading
  • Asking for money or promoting Snapchat or cam sites are prohibited
  • Create your own avatar and use accessories for more fun

    Profiles in the HUD App are not very detailed compared with other hookup apps. However, a profile photo is required before users can use the app's messaging services.

    The app has strict photo upload guidelines, discouraging users from promoting their social media accounts. The app also prohibits users from asking and receiving money or gifts with monetary value. The good thing about the HUD App's profiles is the STD badge shown on their profiles. This means the user is free from sexually transmitted diseases and is safe to hook up with.

    Users can create their avatars for an enhanced dating experience.

    Guidelines for uploading photos:

    • The face should be visible
    • Should be alone in the photo
    • No minors in the photo
    • Hiding your face or facing back
    • Photos that are blurred will be rejected

    Match Feed

    The "Match Feed" feature in the HUD App is designed to enhance your experience by categorizing potential matches into distinct tabs, helping you navigate and connect with others based on different criteria.

    Editor's Conclusion

    HudApp is a relatively new app. Since new is always better, as they say, there's a lot of expectations about it.Signing up is not easy. It differs based on the kind of device that you are using. Also, during the time of testing, using the mobile login method has been resulting in errors. Linking it to your Facebook account is the easiest way to enter the app.Reviews from other websites and some users state that the app is not very good, and not so easy-to-use. Despite the bad reviews, it's a good point that the app offers a 7-day free premium trial. Not all websites can offer such. But if you are forgetful, there's a big chance that you might get charged for the subscription fee. The mechanics of the app is more for finding fun and just all games. So if you're not really looking for something serious, you might still want to find it fun.
