Choose from fun prompts like "My ideal Sunday" or "I'm looking for someone who..." to give matches conversation starters.
Tell us what you're looking for - age range, distance, interests, lifestyle choices, and relationship goals.
Complete photo verification to get a verified badge and build trust with potential matches.
Our smart algorithm shows you compatible people who match your preferences.
Swipe through profiles of people near you. See their photos, bio, interests, and what they're looking for.

Before meeting in person, consider a video call to verify they match their photos and build comfort.
There's no rush. Get to know someone at your own pace before deciding to meet in person.

Receive timely reminders before your date so you never forget or show up late.
Hookt's signature safety feature - share your live location with trusted friends during your date.
Before your date, turn on live location tracking with one tap. It only shares when you want it to.
Generate a unique tracking link and send it to trusted friends via text, email, or any messaging app.
Your friends can see your live location on an interactive map without downloading the app. It updates every 10 seconds.
Friends can send you quick check-in messages through the tracking link to make sure everything's going well.
Designate emergency contacts who can be alerted instantly if you need help.
When your date ends, simply turn off location sharing. You have complete control at all times.
Relax, be yourself, and enjoy getting to know someone new.
Put your phone away (except for safety check-ins) and focus on the person in front of you.
Trust your instincts. If something feels off, it's okay to end the date early.
Dating should be enjoyable! Be yourself, ask questions, and see if there's a connection.
After the date, send a message letting them know you had a good time (if you did!). Honesty is always appreciated.
If there's chemistry, don't wait too long to plan a second date. Strike while the iron is hot!
