How It Works

Three simple steps to a real conversation

Join free

Create your profile and answer the values and lifestyle questionnaire. It takes minutes and shapes everything you see.

Verify with a selfie

Add a live selfie to earn your verified badge and build your Trust Score. We check it is a live capture and match it against your own profile photo.

Discover and talk

Browse compatible people at your own pace, match on what matters, and start the conversation right in the app. No swiping, no number swapping.

Why HoopFrog

Built for how you actually date

Most apps are built to keep you swiping. HoopFrog is built to get you talking with people who fit your life.

Verified. Actually.

Verified users have matched a recent selfie to their profile photos. This confirms the photo on their profile is recent and consistent, it does not verify real-world identity or prevent all forms of misrepresentation.

Compatibility You Can See

A values and lifestyle questionnaire powers a clear compatibility breakdown, dimension by dimension. Discover people who fit your life, not just your type.

Trust You Can Measure

Verified profiles carry a public Trust Score from 0 to 100, built from signals like email, phone, and selfie verification. Know who's real before you say hello.

Voice & Video, Built In

Hear their voice and see their face before you ever meet. Voice greetings and video intros with captions are free; in-app voice and video calls come with VIP. No number swapping, no app switching.

App That Knows When to Stop

Set your own daily limit. Because doom-scrolling profiles isn't actually dating.

First Message? Handled.

Openers sends a pre-written icebreaker the moment you connect. The awkward "what do I even say?", already done.

Ghosting? Not Here.

Our nudge system keeps conversations alive when things go quiet. Less fading into the void, more conversations worth having.

No Swiping, Ever

Our Glow Interaction System replaces the swipe. You see one profile at a time and choose with clear buttons: Pass, Like, or Flare, with Undo if you change your mind. Flare is a limited, high-signal like that tells someone they truly stood out.

Filter by What Matters

Narrow your discovery with lifestyle and values filters, so the people you see line up with how you actually live. Focus on real compatibility, not just who is nearby.

Location-Verified Badge

Members can confirm they are near the city shown on their profile and earn an optional location-verified badge, so you have more confidence that someone is really where they say they are.

Meet in Real Life

Beyond the app, you can attend local HoopFrog events and mixers and meet people face to face when you are ready. See what is coming up and reserve your spot.

Your Data. Not For Sale.

Encrypted messages, private by default. We do not sell your data to advertisers or data brokers. Invisible when you want to browse on your own terms. Your love life isn't an ad target.

Your Safety

Safety isn't a feature.
It's the foundation.

A verified phone number is required before anyone can send you a message.
Profile and gallery photos are screened before they appear.
A verified badge means that member matched a live selfie to their own profile photo.
We never create profiles, use AI personas, or message you from automated accounts.

These are safeguards, not guarantees. A verified badge confirms a photo is recent and consistent. It does not verify real-world identity or prevent all forms of misrepresentation, and we do not run criminal background checks.
