Happy Couple Reviews

HappyCouple is the favorite for me and my SO. But I don’t think I’ve ever used an app that had so many issues! Our questions stopped registering, and I had to ask the developer multiple times and show screen shots (they didn’t believe me)for them to fix. HappyCouple was showing both of us answering questions that day, but no results were popping up—originally they blamed my SO saying he hadn’t answered questions in 5 days (hence why I sent screen shots disproving that). Sometimes the clock expires allowing the next set of questions but there are no questions. There are also many many times HappyCouple itself won’t even login. I’ve been told to try again later, the servers were busy. Right now, I haven’t gotten new questions for more than the normal time. The option to shop for questions is not avail either right now either. Developer said that would be fixed in the next released.

Besides the bugs, it would be nice to have a back button. Sometimes HappyCouple reloads itself and then you select a wrong answer. It would also be nice to see both side of the question. I only know his answer but I don’t know how he answered for me unless he sends a message on the question. It would also be nice if we got the same questions. I have questions from months ago that he hasn’t seen yet. Also, how on earth have I answered 200 more questions than my SO? Sounds like he’s not getting some of the questions.

Please fix these issues!

Updated:
I received an email and I opened it on my break at work, to see sexual positions pop up. I closed it immediately!! I didn’t ask for explicit sexual images to any email.
The ads are off-putting. One was entitled "Is it really cheating?" which popped up when trying to have fun with my spouse and answer questions simultaneously. That is not how you encourage a Happy Couple. Get a clue who your audience is, app designers! :) Otherwise fun so far. Extremely frustrating to set up. This was mentioned when I saw it on a website that recommended HappyCouple . It was very true. Only one iPhone person should install and the other needs to wait for the invite or it will not connect. Also, it is really too easy to click on earning free questions instead of Skip. To earn free questions, you have to do surveys are other things. I didn't want to click that but the options are very close together on the screen. Also, sometimes I select the wrong answer because I read it wrong and there is no edit or back button. You are stuck with your answer. Finally, I got a mismatch about how I feel about traveling and the mismatch was unrelated-it mixed up another question. It said my spouse answered he would tell me how much I mean to him and that we could get through any hump?! What? Also, I could care less about other people's responses.

It's a cute way to get to know your partner on a deeper level. It would be great to see the answers they submitted as well regarding what they answered for you, not just whether or not you were correct about them. The multiple choice options would be great to see as well because we do forget what the options were when we are reviewing the answers...There is also a slight glitch, when I want to comment on a question we have both answered, I select the "let him know button" and a message box pops up. After I type my message, most of the time I am unable to scroll to the "send" button and it is hidden by the keyboard. Also, the write your own answer does not work most of the time and you are forced to pick one that doesn't apply. It would also be nice to be able to edit answer once you submit (I mean right after you hit submit ( I guess if the partner hasn't answered yet, since that would mess up the matching) A few times I have selected the wrong answer and I wasn't able to go back to change it. Other than the few issues above, we both really enjoy using HappyCouple and we use it daily! We are going through a bit of a rough patch, and it is helping us with communication! Thanks for HappyCouple !!!

I thought HappyCouple would be a good way to stay connected with my long-distance boyfriend. It is a nice concept, and I was looking forward to it. However, both of us found the questions to be redundant after a while, and there is usually more than one answer to a question. For instance (this is paraphrased), "You want to exercise; what do you do? A. Go for a walk/run, B. Hit the gym, C. Yoga, D. I don't exercise." Umm, A, B, AND C! Sure, you can write your own response, but your S.O. has to write the exact same thing, punctuation and all, which is absurd. Some of the questions are decent conversation starters, but after a while it is annoying to get poorly written questions wrong. Also, once you select a response, you can't go back and change it. Overall, it is a decent way to get to know someone, but if you already know that person very well, you might know them too well for the game. So, I would recommend it to friends who are just getting to know their S.O., but it is not that great if you know them well. You can find conversation starters elsewhere and other, less discouraging ways of staying connected.

Me and my partner are long distance. We see each other once a year and whatnot. Even if you’re not in a long distance relationship, HappyCouple helps you to connect on the small things instead of the overall big picture of the relationship. It helps you get to know your partner better and start conversations while giving you possible advice and good, fun challenges to keep the relationship alive. Overall HappyCouple builds a stronger, more driven relationship. I feel much more connected to my partner than I ever have.

For my complaints....
When watching an ad for an extra question, I don’t receive my extra question until about an hour later, sometimes even never at all. Yes, I do watch the whole ad.
Secondly, it takes a long time for the matches to appear on the question screen, to see if you mismatched or matched. It’s fun for the wait, but I’d like it to be a bit faster.

I agree with the reviewer below. I've been a very happy and regular Happy Couple user for at least a year now. I certainly don't mind ads paying for my experience, but the first one I saw after updating HappyCouple had the title, "Why men leave the 'perfect' woman. What every woman needs to know". That's divisive and it made me feel icky. The second one was about Trump - certainly nothing romantic about that. You definitely need to screen advertisers better. A couple more of those experiences and I'll likely stop using HappyCouple . Its charm won't outweigh its annoyance.

Here's what I've been enjoying about HC:

1. My new husband and I play nearly every day. It's a nice way to feel connected and know that we thought about each other outside of the routine of the day.

2. It has made me appreciate how compatible we are in myriad small ways, as our answers frequently match. I love that.

3. It has created interesting new topics for discussion on dates.

4. Initially we were partly motivated by the gamification and wanting to increase levels. That helped drive the habit. Now we're at some high level (26, I think) so that's no longer very interesting. The reward is just the good feeling it gives me when I start HappyCouple and see my husband has played, and to see his answers. Which is why if the ads give me a bad feeling, it's no longer something I'll use.

Hope that helped!

A great service for me and my girlfriend now fiance dating long-distance (internationally). Helps bring up conversation topics that wouldn't arise naturally and helps us communicate better.

But honestly, I report 2/5 questions each day for just be incredibly stupid sex questions. 'If you could have a one-night stand and keep it a secret from your SO, would you? (Already have/Yes, looking/Yea, maybe/No, too risky)' no 'I love my SO and wouldn't hurt them in this way' option or similar questions related to cheating, fetishes, etc. like they took everything straight from Freud or a survey of 14 year olds. Plus all the advertised Question Packs are sex related - Kama Sutra, sex positions, etc. so the creators are trying to capitalize on 'horny people spend money'.

I have recommended HappyCouple only to close friends in my same demographic (mid 20's) and none of them have taken me up on it.

This is a great game. It’s a fun way to ask questions and get to know things about each other that you probably wouldn’t otherwise. It is definitely a glitchy app though. You have to select one of the four options they have because writing in your own answer doesn’t show up. It’s hard to comment on questions in the game because the keyboard covers up the send button. It’s also been shutting down a lot and saying that it’s unable to open and will be down for a few days. It’s still enjoyable. It’s just kind of annoying to have to work around these things. It would also be nice if questions for both sides showed up automatically. . .instead my boyfriend and I have to comment on each other’s so we can see both sides. Anyway, it really is a good app. I’ve really enjoyed it! It’s definitely a great option for a long distance relationship.

HappyCouple started out amazing; it’s super fun, and I am still obsessed with playing it. However, it does need some updating and proof-reading. A lot of the questions have typo’s in them, or are worded strangely. In addition, a lot of the questions are just the same questions re-worded. It could definitely use a creative team to make up some new questions.

In addition, it would make it way more fun if you and your partner received the same questions at the same time, so you could actually see the answers right away. There are some questions that I answered months ago that have still never been answered by my partner. In addition, I wish you would release the answers to both people for both sides of the question. Instead, you constantly have to swap phones to see the results of the other person’s side.

I understand apps are here to make money but some are too aggressive, HappyCouple is a good example. I don’t mind watching ads or taking surveys to “earn” use of HappyCouple but too often you spend time taking a survey and then have way through to says “no thanks we don’t need your input” and it doesn’t give a credit for the survey.

If you are considering this one, I would move on and try something else. *shrug*

UPDATE: after a week of use HappyCouple
Is OK but I am very frustrated by the dishonesty of HappyCouple and it’s surveys. One of the ways to “earn” questions is to take surveys. When you choose a survey to take, it estimates the time it takes to complete the survey and the number of questions it earns. Totally ignore these because hey are not accurate. For example, I picked a survey 3 minutes long and rewarding 2 questions. After a half dozen questions about me, my career, my salary ... I am directed to a second survey about dental work. At least 10 minutes of very details multi-part questions into that survey, it ends and I get a thank you message. I am then redirected to a new website where I am told that hey already have enough responses and that my survey is not needed. WHAT?! I’ve already taken the *#^{% survey.

Get ready to repeat this often. I did complete one survey for reward questions but mostly you do not get rewarded. Very much a scam, spending a bunch of time and getting nothing in return.

HappyCouple is on one hand awesome for my wife and I. It’s become a staple of our dinner table conversations. I wake up everyday excited to answer the questions, comments, or challenge.

A few tweaks could make it better just for preference. It would be nice to have that red number on the top so we know if the other person has responded. Now we have to wait until we open it and hit the top right button to see the number of comments/questions answered.

Very often HappyCouple doesn’t load right away for comments or seeing responses. It’s pretty much 50% of the time it has a load error. It would also be great to view questions each respective person has answered but not yet answered by the other. Perhaps we want to change our answer or it was an interesting question we wanted to talk about.

It would also be nice to favorite a question when we strike up a conversation on it. When we answer questions or send a lot of comments we have to scroll down and find it.

Lastly, I recently bought a pack but the questions haven’t populated after our daily quiz either the day it was bought or the next day. Still waiting on the response or refund. Nothing yet.

Overall - is still recommend it but it needs a lot of tlc for more stars.

I love the idea of HappyCouple. It creates conversation and engages us to talk about some things in a fun way. However, we’ve experienced some bugs here and there that wouldn’t let us do the things HappyCouple seems to intend that we do. That’s frustrating and makes us want to give up on HappyCouple . Also, more explanation of how the pint system works. We keep getting a notice that we have one more point to go, but we score 4 or more points in the questions and nothing happens. This is an example of the bugs I’m talking about. Also, sometimes there is an error message at the beginning when you first open HappyCouple that prevents you from doing anything. It can be frustrating, but we hope the developer can work out the kinks because it is fun.

HappyCouple is great, I would recommend it to any couple. It’s definitely a conversation starter and helps you learn more things about your partner even if you’ve been together for a while. The only thing that annoys me about it is that it’s a little buggy. I have an up-to-date iPhone and every time I open HappyCouple and it presents me with a fill in message, HappyCouple freezes on a blank white screen and I have to keep closing it and reopening HappyCouple to get it to eventually work. It’s also a little slow on touch response. When I touch a spot, it takes a bit for it to respond and load which is frustrating because I don’t know if I actually touched it or not. If they fixed these bug issues, HappyCouple would be even better.

I love HappyCouple so much! It’s amazing and really brings my partner and I closer each day. I use it every day and we couldn’t be happier. It has honestly helped us with communication and getting a better understanding of one another. I thought I knew him better than myself but HappyCouple shows me that there are always things to be learning about one another, every day. If I could offer advice on HappyCouple however, it’d be nice if you could edit your answer bc I’m not able to select another option if I click on one by mistake. Also it’d be truly helpful if you can see all the answers your partner chose. I think it’d help to offer better insight. Other than that I truly love HappyCouple!

Love HappyCouple! It gets us talking about things we wouldn't usually just bring up in conversation! Helps us connect on a daily basis in the midst of busy lives....this is how I felt about HappyCouple until I downloaded the newest version at the developer's request. The ads are distracting. I didn't mind small banner ads but now they take over the screen and you have to close out carefully to continue. Also who cares about how other people answer the questions?! HappyCouple is about your partner in life not everyone else. I am a happily married woman and don't care if other women want to role play or not 🙄 I wish I had stuck to the old version because we loved HappyCouple and if I see one Trump positive ad or anything political I'm deleting it. So disappointed in the update to say the least.
