Hitwe offers three types of subscriptions. 1-month membership costs 7.99USD, 3-months membership costs 17.97USD, and a 12-month subscription costs 47.28. If you’re seeking for a longtime membership, you get a pretty good deal when you sign up for the 12 months subscription.

However, even without a subscription, you could still enjoy all the features of the site with limitations that have a very minimal effect with regards to giving you a full experience. The only advantage of having a subscription is the deactivation of ads that can be quite a bother, especially on the mobile app.

  • You get a personal profile which you can fill out
  • 12,000,000 US Members
  • Users range from 18-40 years old
  • Users are young and hip, looking to meet new people

Majority of Hitwe members come from Russia, Brazil, and Ukraine. Most are male and female under the age of 35. Some are looking for a casual hook-up, but most are seeking friendship. Members who are online are quick to respond to messages sent to them. Sad to say though that similar to other dating sites, Hitwe also has its share of fake profiles. Some members use a pseudonym instead of their real names, and their profiles usually do not feature any details. Hitwe claims that such profiles can be reported to their support team, but we are doubtful that they will take action on it.

  • Nearby search function in mobile app displays users who are approximate to your location
  • Match suggestions are based on your location
  • Roullete-type matching
  • Newsfeed where recently uploaded photos of online users are displayed
  • All members can send messages for free
  • There is a chatroom

Unlike most dating sites where you can only initiate contact after you match with another user, in Hitwe you can message any user you come across with on the website. By simply clicking any of the other user’s photo, the site automatically brings you to your inbox where a chat window with that user becomes available. When you visit a user profile, there is also a featured box called 'Fast Message' in which your chosen question from the drop-down menu gets instantly delivered to that user's inbox. All user interactions whether made on the newsfeed or discovery page, are referred to a private chat box to help initiate a conversation.

When you receive a message, you get notified either via Email or browser notifications. You could also send messages through Hitwe’s mobile app, in which you receive phone notifications for every interaction you get. You may choose to turn off notifications, both on the website and app if you wish to. If a particular member is being offensive or is sending you spam messages, you could opt to add them to your blacklist. This will block them from further sending you any messages. The instant chat messaging feature in the website and the mobile app makes contacting in Hitwe very convenient and easily accessible.

Hitwe Profile Quality

Hitwe Profile
  • Users can see other members’ profiles and photos even without a premium subscription
  • Users can earn a blue verified icon for their profiles
  • Photo gallery can hold up to 20 photos for free users
  • The profiles are not very detailed
  • The profile information can be changed later
  • Profile pictures are visible to everyone for free

User profiles on Hitwe are relatively informative considering members can add additional information about their habits such as smoking, drinking, drugs, and diet. Members can also input their professional details like their profession and the industry they work in, as well as their educational attainment. Personal details such as their religion, sexual orientation, relationship status, living arrangement, and if the user has any children, pets, and a car can also be indicated in their profiles. These details help showcase a user's character. Unfortunately, not all members completely fill out their profiles. But you could send a request to the user that he or she completes his or her profile.

Hitwe App

Hitwe Mobile Menu Contacting
  • Straightforward and user-friendly interface
  • Phone notifications for every interaction
  • One-click chat button on Sympathy (match suggestions)
  • Too many pop-up ads
  • The app is available for both Android and iOS users

Hitwe’s mobile app has every feature found on its website counterpart. An additional feature is the Pet Evolution game, which serves as a great motivation to interact, upload new photos, just overall be active on the dating app. The mobile app also features a message button right on the match profile suggestions–which the website do not have. This would immediately take you to a private chat room with that user. When you click on the user’s photo on the app, you would be able to see the user’s photo gallery. Wherein clicking a photo on the website would bring you to a personal chat box instead. Overall, the mobile app seems to bring more convenience when messaging and viewing user profiles. The only inconvenience is–ads pop-up every after 5-10 likes or 20-30 seconds, which brings total annoyance.

Special Features

Even without a premium membership subscription, you can still get to enjoy Hitwe’s special features with some minimal limitations. These limitations do not really affect the website and app functionality in terms of meeting and interacting with other users.

See who visited your profile

A ‘Visitors’ tab both on the website and mobile app enables you to see all the users who checked out your profile. After 30 days, your profile visitors will be removed from the list. For premium users, you get to see all your profile visitors. For free members, you are restricted to open the profiles of your 5 most recent profile visitors.

See who liked your profile

The ‘Likes’ tab lists all users who sent you a like in the last 30 days. Same with the ‘Visitors’ tab, they get deleted after 30 days, and the profiles of your 5 most recent likers are only accessible if you are a premium member.

Profile Interaction Counter

Both the website and mobile app shows a counter on your profile of the total number of visitors you had since you joined Hitwe. Beside your total visitor count, are the total number of likes you received from other users, and the total number of likes you sent.

Pet Evolution

The Pet Evolution game is an exclusive feature of Hitwe’s mobile app. Your chosen pet begins at Level 1, and in order to evolve and reach the higher levels, you have to complete the listed daily and special quests.
