Peace of mind, built in

You shouldn't have to worry about people you know finding your profile, or about guys who aren't here to find love. Here's how Hugmore keeps things safe and what everyone agrees to.

Safety, built in

No worrying about people you know finding out you're on the app, or about guys who are here for something else. Our rules are clear.

In Private Mode, the whole app switches to a dark screen

SMS verification: one account per person

Everyone verifies by SMS when they sign up. One phone number, one account.

Every photo, checked automatically

No sexually explicit photos, and no photos showing contact details, social media handles or QR codes.

Report and Block

Report someone and they're blocked automatically, without ever knowing it was you. Anyone can block for free, and the other guy isn't notified.

We don't read your messages

We only look at a chat if one of the two people in it reports the other, or if the law requires it.

No names in your notifications

Notifications never show his name or what he said. On your lock screen, you'll only see “You have a new notification.”

Screenshot protection

Screenshots and screen recordings of the app come out black.

Location blur (free)

Shift the location other guys see by up to 3 km.

Private Mode (Hugmore Plus)

Your profile won't appear in Explore. Only guys you choose, like ones you've sent interest to or matched with, can see you. And you won't show up in anyone's Visitors.

You can also lock the app with a passcode (Face ID or fingerprint works too), and Pause Mode lets you take a break without deleting your account. And right now, there are no ads.

Our standards

Who can join, and what's off-limits. We keep it clear, and we enforce it.

Who can join

  • Men 18+. We confirm it with your date of birth.
  • Guys who don't have a boyfriend or spouse right now. Everyone confirms this with a checkbox when they sign up.
  • One phone number, one account.

Photos you can’t post

  • Sexual photos
  • Photos showing contact info, social media handles or QR codes
  • Every photo is checked automatically.

What's off-limits

  • Date Plan posts looking for sex. If we find one, we'll take it down and may suspend the account.

If you report someone

  • You can report from a profile, a photo, a chat or a message.
  • Report someone and they're blocked automatically. He'll never know it was you.
  • We only look at a chat if one of the two people in it reports the other, or if the law requires it.
