Hoop Reviews

Hoop used to be so good about 6 months ago and with each update there was either a feature taken away or Hoop just got slower and more unstable, you’ve taken away the ability to make a bio about yourself and to see other peoples interest and locations and other facts about them, but not only that you’ve taken away the ability to change your age which was an issue cause I had to make a new account cause I first put in my birthday wrong and it said I couldn’t change it and I had to make a new account, also you’ve taken away the search preference to see people within a certain amount of miles of your town or city, now that it doesn’t exist anymore you can only see random people around your country or the world, I’d much rather get to know people that live near me so we can hangout, overall Hoop has gotten a lot worse and I fear what will happen with another update, and the recent restrictions with profiles and settings is not what will make Hoop better, it makes it worse, this needed to be addressed so please take it into consideration.

I got Hoop at the beginning of quarantine and really liked it. The people that I added turned out to be overall really cool people. But now after so many updates and changes to users, Hoop has been ruined. Pictures on your profile are now so restricted; plus there is no more bio so I can’t get to know them a little bit before I add them or not. The part that is making me consider deleting Hoop the most is the amount of sex bots on Hoop . I know everything can’t be stopped but I’ll go on Hoop every couple of days (since I don’t like it anymore) and have 7-8 requests, but at least 6 of those are clearly sex bots and not actually a real person that wants to talk. I’ve even gotten requests many times from an account that advertises child porn and I’ve reported each account as it comes in, but they’ve clearly just been creating more and more fraudulent accounts. Hoop has absolutely just fallen apart in a short few months.

My friend and I downloaded Hoop because we say it on TikTok and it said you can get more friends on Snapchat and connect with others so that’s what we went there for . So we started to get some people that we became friends with but unfortunately something bad happened to my friend she basically to make the story short got scammed the person hacked her Cashapp took her money mind you she is a single mom of two girls doesn’t have a job and they literally took petty change from her . Do not use it you can maybe meet a regular normal person like us ( me for example) that are just looking to make friends and not cause harm but over all Hoop is used by people that just will ruin your life in Seconds like it’s really sad now my friend is out of money who is going to get it back for her ? The people that made Hoop ? TBH the way I feel about this Is they are probably the ones maybe that are even doing this . Truly horrible experience. I wish there was a horrible rate but I am going to leave one star but trust me it’s just so I can post this because it’s not allowing me without rating this first .

this app used to be one of my favorite apps. Now it is slowly becoming worse and worse. It seems as though every update made it worse and worse. First, they took away bios which was probably the largest blow to the overall enjoyment to Hoop and helped look for people more. Secondly, they made daily rewards less going from 200 to 100 but also adding in the purchasing of gems which was intentional but understandable. They had taken away being able to take 6 pictures and changed it to 3. Lastly, they’ve added the superchat and the other thing that’s like 2000 gems but also a ripoff. I’ve also noticed that since all these terrible updates it has led to an EXCESSIVE amount of bots advertising sexual images for kids and is very bad. At this point I would not recommend Hoop to anyone. this app used to be such a great app but since they’ve really sunk it. I’m not saying they have to add the same things as before but add features that helps you get better selection of people. I would enjoy talking more about the problems with Hoop to any developers who may read this.

I liked this app at first. I went on it about everyday, until recently it stopped working the way it should. I kept adding people, or requesting for their snap, and it seemed like the request would go through. That’s when I started to notice that I would see the person I attempted to add before come up and be recommended to me again. It became increasingly frustrating, as I was wasting my gems on someone who I had already added once. It it getting to the point that I added the same person about 4 times because I thought the issue was on my end. I have restarted Hoop numerous times, and, not to say that I am in high demand or anything, have received no requests or snaps at all in the past week. I feel like there would be at least one person. When I tried to contact support through Hoop , which again was numerous times, I received a banner that said something along the lines of couldn’t be displayed at this time. I even tried to go to their website, and from what I saw, support was only available through email. If this doesn’t work that’s where I will be headed next. I am increasingly frustrated and I am about to delete Hoop . I don’t want to, especially right now during quarantine because it helped me connect to some very great new internet friends. I hope this will reach someone at this app so they can fix this for me because Hoop was great before this started.

I assume making Hoop less like a dating app serves fixes to legal problems, but it makes Hoop much less enjoyable. Features such as having the option to only show people near you, or the ability to have a bio to say something about yourself, would make Hoop serve it’s purpose to make friends much more efficiently. I also think it’s strange that after I ask to see someone’s snap and they accept the request, which then leads to a notification showing their name and saying to either add they snap or decline, sometimes it doesn’t give me the ability to see more then the persons first picture. I am not mistaken in finding this, and it can be extremely annoying as someone could have something that doesn’t show any Thing about them except for a picture of their face. Making them less recognizable. Please fix this bug, or change it if it is intact a feature. Overall Hoop is decent at best, and incredibly underdeveloped for its popularity. A side note, I see many profiles advertising a child porn website when I’m scrolling through, and every time I see them I report the account and block it, but the user making these account keeps making them and making your app look pretty bad so I’d think you’d want to do something about it. I’ve been seeing these accounts for as long as I’d have Hoop , about 2 weeks.

I’ve been using Hoop for a while and I really like it, I still do. But there is an update and you no longer have a bio. I’m disappointed by this because that was where I really decided whether I wanted to request or not. Now it’s all about looks. But now if they have group picture I don’t know which one they are because it told me in their bio and they don’t have one anymore. And the bios also told me whether a guy just wanted nudes or not. It also told me who smoked, who wanted a freaky girl and who didn’t, and it told me their heights. I’m 6’2 and I would like to know who is taller than me. It also told me what state they were from because I really don’t want to talk to someone in California or Florida. It also brought in similar interests that I’m attracted to. The bios also let people know that I don’t send nudes. So if there is a way you could bring the bios back that would be nice. I understand this review is kind of everywhere and I’m sorry for that but it needs to be addressed.

Okay, we I first got this app it was fun, I meet some really cool people on their on of them being now the person I call every night, and talk every day. I was upset that they took away bios but, found a way to improvise. Doing that took away the ability to get to know someone before you could add them.
Now, they have you limited to 3 photos for your profile, now it’s a little bit harder for people get to know you before adding you. I would under stand 5 or something but, 3 I don’t get.
Personally the update to allow people to see your stories was a little iffy for me personally, and I haven’t really seen anyone use that feature.
I’m sure a couple of people can agree with me that the next update should be adding back bios, and making the photo limit higher.
It would also be really nice to be able to change the age range of people you see when your looking for friends.

I’ve been reading the other reviews and from what I’ve gathered, the more updates, the less people liked it. I’m not sure why you would take bios away as it gives people a better understanding on who they’re swiping on. One of the things I enjoyed about this app was how I could put multiple pictures to give better insight to who I am, especially since I could do that in a bio. Also with this most recent update, all of the pictures I upload drop In quality, perhaps it’s just my phone but it’s still something that frustrates me.
I also saw another review that brought up the idea of having a filter for people who live in the same state as you, I think this would be a great idea. While meeting people from across the state is nice, it’s almost impossible to meet up with them, or keep conversations going considering the time difference.
I love meeting new people but it’d be nice if I could meet people closer to me. Like be able to select *within so many miles* or *same city*?

I think that Hoop since I’ve gotten it has been great. I’ve met almost 100 people that I wouldn’t normally have came into contact with all across the world. However, after this most recent update, they have taken away the option of creating a Bio for people to read. I think that the Bio option is great for people who want to get to know someone sorta before they even talk to them, and allows said person to even choose to want to talk to the other person as well. I think that the creators of Hoop should reinstate the Bio section and update to reflect some previous versions. Other than the most recent update, it was a good app. Totally recommend if you want to get to know people around the world and relate to people who we would normally would never meet in real life.

I think the idea of Hoop is pretty cool, I’ve just joined so I haven’t yet made many friends. I’ve noticed a few issues such as it took a day for me to even see any profiles, my bio doesn’t update when I change it sometimes, and things take very long to update and load. Not a huge deal, everything eventually loads up. I do have a few suggestions on how to improve Hoop though. I saw in another review that there used to be a search by distance feature, I think that should be brought back so we can find people in our area easier. I also think you guys should add a messaging feature right on Hoop , so that people can either request to message or request to get their snap. Last suggestion I have is that the profiles should really be checked out before being allowed to post. I’ve seen a large amount of girls using Hoop to sell explicit pictures, many of these girls under the age of 18. I just don’t think people should be able to use Hoop to advertise such activities as that is not the intentions of Hoop . Overall, I’m not too disappointed with Hoop. Like I said, it could use some improvements. But I’m sure with time things will come together. I think Hoop has a lot of potential and it’s off to a pretty good start:)

Hoop used to be sooo great and amazing, I don’t know what is causing the slow down it’s so bad Hoop is unusable, it takes 10-30 minutes to load up a profile.. when you spend your gems on someone it doesn’t go through you have to wait 10-30 minutes and if you close Hoop you’ll have your gems back as if you never spent them. It’s definitely not my internet I have a 1 gig connection and it’s not my phone I have an X. Look into this please. Update: it’s getting worse and worse I don’t understand why the developers are like this they keep telling us it’s because a lot of people have been using Hoop lately.. now Hoop is freezing after a few seconds of opening Hoop , I think I’m just going to delete Hoop

UPDATE 2: I deleted Hoop and reinstalled it now everything is working sooo smoothly I also noticed all of my notification history was all gone I easily had over 1,000 notifications and I guess that was the reason for the insane slowdown so if you want to avoid future errors delete those notifications once you add that persons snap.

I really liked Hoop and was having a great time on it. Till this new update that messed me up. I have tried putting several pictures of me on it with my clear face and it has not worked at all. First I tried putting this mirror picture which did not work which I get cause it kinda showed my face but didn’t. Then I tried this picture that showed my face clear with the fendi filter from Snapchat which did not work and I was like ok, maybe it did not pick up my face because the filter. So then I try couple more pictures that don’t have filters such one with me and my friend and another one of me and the sun and then the last one with me goofing around. All these pictures you could see my face 100% and know it’s me. I just want that fixed cause Hoop really be giving me cute boys snaps so please help me out.

I would say in about late January I had received a request from a boy so I finally added him back on my Snapchat and we just got to talking and soon enough we started to really like each other. The sad part was we lived 400 miles away. But on March 26th, 2020 he asked me to be his girlfriend. With covid booming at the time it really took us a long time to meet so August 25th was our first time meeting. Ever since then we have been making drives, half way, and even train rides. Been going on 1 1/2 years now and if I would have never seen Hoop advertised, I probably would have never met my future husband. And yes I can safely say that because I’m sneaky and found a ring! Thanks this app for helping me literally find the love of my life!

I just want to start this out by saying Hoop used to be amazing... but not it’s starting to fall apart. I used to get hundreds of requests a day and everyone I requested always gave me their snap but after I deleted my profile and made a new one it stop working. I’ve tried deleting Hoop and making even more profile but it just doesn’t work it won’t ever load people profiles for me and when it does I can’t request their snap. I also think people can’t see me anymore on Hoop because I use the same photos as before and what went from HUNDREDS of request is now sadly zero i tried making sure my profile was complete and I check I had the right snap linked up but it’s like my profile just doesn’t excite anymore PLEASE HELP ME even when I try to watch an add or get assistance it says the sane thing can’t load try again later >:(

I really like Hoop . I’ve met many people and it’s a good app. One thing I would like to change that you should also be able to search by state because many of the people I have met are from different states. Also, I have tried to add face pictures with Snapchat filters on but it says that you need to include your face.
I hope you can bring back the search by distance too!
Also Idk what happened but most of my snaps I got from people have disappeared! Like if I scroll down until the bottom I can’t see all of them
Also you should be able to search by name cause sometimes I see someone I like but accidentally skip them and I can’t go back cause it also goes back by one so having that option would be great!

Downloaded Hoop in February because my friends told me to. I only really did it as a joke and wasn’t expecting much from it. I even joked about them trying to find people on there to date and how stupid it was. About a week or so in, this boy requested my snap. I accepted his request and after talking for a little we realised we were actually in the same school district. After talking for a few more weeks he asked me out on a date. I wasn’t really expecting much to come from it but he was a really nice guy so I went along with it to see what would happen. He took me to this restaurant and we really hit it off. After a few more dates he introduced me to his family and we made it official. We’re now coming up to 6 months together. I’ve never been so happy and my mental health hasn’t been this good in years. I really found the right person. Thank you this app!

I would like to rate Hoop. I had to give it five stars. Because of Hoop I met a lifelong friend. When I downloaded Hoop, I downloaded it as a dare with a couple of friends. As I kept swiping through people I saw a girl who was my age and shared some interests. I obviously asked for her snap. She added me back and eventually we began snapping every day! When my in life friends left, I was left with my girlfriend and a few people I knew, but didn’t trust. You know who never left me though? The girl I met on Hoop. My mother always said she didn’t approve of online people. But kids, you could meet a lifelong best friend online. I already know this friend is going to be in my life forever. I plan on meeting up with her soon too. We also made a pack that we would be in each other’s weddings (lol.) So why not meet a best friend through Hoop?

Hoop is awesome for making friends if you consider yourself to be an outgoing person. I have added many people I have great conversations with and have made friends. The biggest problem on Hoop is that there are so many garbage scammers on here. Its a ring of them from what I can tell is based in the US, but they are not really US Americans. Its fairly easy to tell and is also very annoying if this problem isn’t fixed, Hoop will be labeled as a place for scams. That would be terrible for branding and would hate to see this new thing get ran into the ground. The thought behind Hoop has global potential, but will not be successful if they don’t handle these minor problems. It’s the loudest 10% that makes the name behind something. Like this review if you want a change. 🙌🏾🙏🏾

Well I absolutely love Hoop I made 451 Snapchat friends and it was amazing we talk all day now but we I first logged in I spinner the spiral too fast and the wrong for my birth date came up and it said I foundry change it and I was on level 23 and I was really upset when I had to start over just to put the date in but yeah Hoop is awesome you just can’t change your birthdate but that should change too we should have at least 2 chances to put the right birthdate on there and if those two are gone and we try to do it again we should get asked how old are you and what year you were actually born and to probably be confirmed by your parents like I’m a 2007 and I did 2005 like literally I was upset cause I couldn’t change it but I definitely recommend Hoop if you need more friends.

I got about three new people who added me on Snapchat and it said it was by mention. I hadn’t been mentioned in anyone’s story recently so I asked those people where they added me from. One replied pretty quickly and said it was by the this app app. I was confused because I have ok heard of Hoop before, so when I asked about Hoop they quickly unadded me and blocked me, the other two still haven’t responded.

I made an account just now and deleted it because I don’t want my Snapchat on some random app, it’s still very unsettling bc there are many young people who can have the same thing happen to them and maybe even worse

I can not fully rate Hoop, but i never got to try it. It always said loading profiles and none ever loaded. i wish i could've utilized it

Edit: So Hoop works occasionally, not really at night but it seems to work in the morning.
I love Hoop but it is very bugged. First, the times in works and doesn't is kind of annoying. Second, it won't let me experience my preferences. I can input them but when I go back to matches, it has the loading screen but after a while it doesn't even load. Third, today I was on Hoop and did some swipes, already had matches. Later, I went on Hoop and all my 150 gems were gone and so were my matches like people whose snaps I received. Kinda bummed because I was saving those gems, and I never got to add all my matches.

Similar to the right tab where it shows people that have either asked for your snap or for people that have given you their snap, there should be a page that shows ALL the total people you have sent a snap request to so you can possibly check the status of the request and maybe send them a reminder. I think it would help keep track of everything a little better! Keep up the good work.

i love Hoop but for some reason whenever i have the search preference to find people in my area, it gives me the same exact people. most of them i already have on snap, but i will literally hit “X” on all of them, it will say “loading profiles” and it will give me the same group of 20 or so people just in s different order. please fix this because i want to find more people in my area, other than that i love Hoop

I’ve been using Hoop for at least a month now . I love it . It’s amazing. I’ve met incredible people through it . Made new friends . I love the opportunity Hoop gives of meeting new people. Just recently it’s been acting up. It will not load profiles for me . In my settings it has a red exclamation mark even after I’ve fixed / updated everything. I’ve tried logging out , turning off my phone , and deleting Hoop and downloading Hoop again. Nothing is working . Please fix this bug when you can .
Thank you again , for making an amazing app ❣️

I absolutely love Hoop, I have had zero problems until now. I recently just got the iPhone 11 Pro after having the iPhone XS and after the upgrade when I try to open Hoop all I get is this white screen and it won’t show me anything. I can’t use it anymore because it won’t show me anything other than this white screen. If this is something you can fix I would absolutely give this 5 stars without a question!

“this app” is finally a app that i’ve been waiting years for to allow you to connect new friends to Snapchat, Hoop had a delicate vibe that makes you feel you’re on Tinder while connecting to new people, Hoop falls short with it’s “diamond” value that can eat up quick with 10 diamonds per like, made me feel I had to watch ads all day, Overall “this app” has a lot going just needs more construction to allow better usage for Hoop .

5.5/10

Hoop is amazing!! I use it multiple times a day for multiple hours at a time. Lately Hoop has been slower and it won’t show me their profile pictures and Every time I add someone it still shows they are grey and I haven’t added them. Also when you add someone it doesn’t let me add them it just takes my diamonds. I hope you guys fix it because it’s getting annoying. I used to love Hoop but, now I’m never on it because it just tweaks out.

Hoop is really good! I’ve had it for less than 24 hours and have met a few friends already. The only problem is that about a half an hour ago, the screen said it was finding new people and then switched to something along the lines of “It seems like there’s a problem loading.” I was just wondering if anybody has been having this problem or if it might just be my device? Thank you!

I love Hoop a lot great way to meet new people and I love the update of finding people near us at around the same age but I just always wish that there was like a map were u could search for people either by using a map feature marking the this app users like close by location or just a search bar to look up people or something idk just a idea probably would work or be good so just a idea

I really liked Hoop and already got to meet some friends but not long after getting Hoop it crashed so I deleted Hoop to see if it would work again. It didn’t and so I tried turning my phone off and it still doesn’t work. I’ve tried logging out but now I can’t even log back in. But it was a really fun app to use while I was able to use it.

So now that we can see profiles around us, I’m finally giving y’all 5 stars cuz that means Hoop is now tha bomb👍🏾🤪❤️, but there’s this one thing, when we enable the profiles around us, can it be to where it shows all the this app profiles in my state instead of around since there may not be anyone in the specific area?

If we can’t choose profiles by state now, will that ever be in a future update?

Firstly Hoop is absolutely amazing! I love it. I was thinking of a feature that would be absolutely amazing.

I was thinking it’d be cool to add like an “Add Back Feature. Something like if you add them on Snapchat and they add you back, give them a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Then give them like an “Add back percentage” and it shows the percentage of people they add back. That way you’re not saturating your Snapchat with friends that never added you back.

I love Hoop, I use it almost everyday to find new friends near me, but I noticed that when I updated Hoop it won’t let me view all the people who are near me it’ll keep saying “view every profile near you” and it’ll show me people around the U.S I don’t finding people in the US but I want to look at people who are close to me and it won’t let me look at it anymore I even tried restarting Hoop and it still just shows me people around the US. Could you please fix this and bring it back to the way it was where I can view the people near me as many times as I want I would love that

thanks to this app, i met one of the sweetest guys in the world, it’s good to make new friends and because of this app i met one of the best guys ever. this app helps you interact with others and is an amazing social platform. Thank you this app for giving me this oppurnity to make so many new people from around the world, and especially one of the best guys ever that i’m always gonna wanna be with.
