You can find your potential matches in Finder. Set your preferences and make your choices: down if you don’t like the person; double tap if you like the person. You can also send Major crush to stand out. If your like is mutual, you will get a match while looking through accounts in Finder or will see it later in the Events tab.

If you forgot your password, please do the following:

1. Open Hily
2. Tap “Sign In” button
3. Tap “Forgot your password?”
4. Enter your e-mail and tap “Send recovery letter”
5. Receive a recovery email (if you can’t find the letter from us, please check your Spam or Junk mail folders)
6. Follow instructions in the recovery email to reset your password
7. Log in using your new password

Remember that password is set up for accounts that are created via email only. There is no separate password if you log in via Facebook/Snapchat/Apple ID. If you register via Phone number, you will receive an auto-generated SMS code.

To chat with users, you need to match with them first or send a Major Crush that gives you the ability to send out the first message. How to get a match? Generally, it’s all about making your profile appealing. Add a few pictures, write a compelling bio, and fill in your profile information. Then go to Finder, set your preferences, and start checking user profiles: double-tap for a like or pull-down for a pass. Once the person likes you back, the chat opens and you can start a chat:)

Hily has multiple verification tools to ensure the safe use of the application and provides access to the app for real and verified users only. Look for the “Verified” badge on the profiles and be sure that those are 100% real people. Do not forget to verify yourself as well

The app changes your location based on the geodata your phone shares with the app.

Allow the app to use your phone’s location, so you can see users nearby.

It locates you near the city or town that is closest to you and it is dynamic so it changes when you change your physical location.

If you want to look for friends and dates all over the world, you can turn on a Global Search (which is a Premium feature that you can apply in Finder settings). It gives you the ability to select different location rather than your own and explore the world.

Hily is free to download and use. You can check profiles, match, chat, go live, view streams, or share stories free of charge. Also, you can try a free trial or get a premium subscription. After your subscription expires, you can still use the app for free and even get free premium features in the Daily Roulette if you keep logging in daily.

Depending on your location or the device you are using, Hily will give you options to log in using one of the following methods:

  • Email
  • Phone
  • Snapchat
  • Facebook
  • Apple ID

Then, you are invited to add some basic information about yourself along with the photo:

  • Gender
  • Name (you can be creative and add your nickname here)
  • Email
  • Password
  • Birth date
  • Best photo

Hily is an online dating application, which you can download through the Apple Store, Play Store and Huawei AppGallery. We strongly recommend not to download the application from suspicious services to make sure your personal data is safe and secured.

If you already have an account, you can use the same credentials for authorization on each mobile device. Be sure, your account will be synchronized on multiple devices and you will not lose any of your information (such as matches, likes, etc.)

Enjoy Hily!

For security reasons, it would be great to have your face in the picture. Selfies and elevator looks are highly appreciated. Please, avoid group photos and kids in the photo — they are confusing users and decrease your profile rating.

If your photo was rejected or deleted, or if you can’t use the photo as a profile picture, it means that it could be restricted because of one of the following reasons:

  • Photo is low-quality
  • Your face is not visible
  • There are several people in it
  • It contains nudity or sexual activity
  • There is text or any form of advertising
  • Your photo falls under the category of violence and graphic images that are of public interest or concern, such as human rights abuses or acts of terrorism
  • It has any scenes of violence

Enjoy Hily!
