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 are Hugmore's safety features and the standards everyone agrees to.
Built-in safety features
SMS verification: one account per person
Everyone verifies by SMS when they sign up. One phone number, one account.
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.
Sexual photos and photos showing contact info can't be posted.
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.
Reporting someone blocks him automatically. He won't know.
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.”
Notifications never show his name or what he said.

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 won't appear in Explore—only guys you choose 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
- Outing anyone, or sharing what's in profiles or chats outside the app
- Impersonation and harassment
- Buying or selling sex, asking for money, sales pitches or recruiting, and drugs
- Date Plan posts looking for sex
If we find any of these, 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.
