The members of Haters are not really hateful people. Actually, they are wanting to be liked and to meet people who they like as well. But not for very serious relationships. Generally, male members are more compared to female members by around 20%. Since the app has easy-to-use features, members are attracted to use it. They are more likely to respond and make a match. However, not all are pushed to have real dates.
Due to the nature of the app, it is typical to see young members around.

How to Sign Up for Hater
Quick and easy registration
Mobile app only; available on the Apple App store and Google Play
Sign up only through Facebook or your phone number
You can opt to receive a one-time SMS from the desktop website
5 photo uploads maximum
Registration is free
Hater has a very basic sign-up process which you can finish in a matter of 5 minutes. You can register by connecting your Facebook account or getting the app to send you a verification code. As expected, the Facebook method was faster. If you register through Facebook, your name, gender, and birthday are automatically imported to Hater but these can be modified right away. The site will not be posting information without your consent so you have nothing to worry about.
During the signing up process, you have to supply some information about yourself like your interests and upload up to 5 photos. You may also set the information about the age range of your target match.
Making Contact on Hater
Only one direct message can be sent per 12 hours for non-matches
You can "send a card" as a form of icebreaker
"Fill the blank" is also another icebreaker
Can be matched with local or international members
Age and location range can be changed
Swipe right or left to show your interest to another member
Once you and a user swipe right on each other, a match is formed and you can start messaging. Matches can send a limited number of messages everyday, so you better say everything before you run out of chances.You can still send direct messages to your non-matches, but only once every 12 hours.
When a conversation with someone has started, there are options that will help you break out of that dry "hey" or any corny opening lines. "Send a card" lets you send a topic to a user and you can both swipe on the card in the chatbox to see if you mutually hate or love that topic. "Fill the blank" is similar to Cards Against Humanity in that you choose a question, provide your answer, then send it to the other person. A lively conversation can start from there.
There's no option to choose or search for a match by yourself, but you can help the app find appropriate matches by supplying honest and correct information about yourself.

The app is missing from the Apple and Google Play Stores
The app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play and is free to download and use. Before, it was only available in the USA and Canada, but recently it has expanded to the rest of the world. The founders are reportedly planning to roll out ads and premium subscriptions later in 2018.
During the time of update, the app is not available when you search it on the app stores. However, there is no official statement that it has been shut down and the website is still up and running. But when you click the link, it will just redirect you to the homepage and not on the Hater App download page.
Hater Costs and Prices
Is Hater expensive or cheap?
In comparison to other providers Hater is free of charge.
Special Features
Haters have a lot of contacting features. In addition to that, it has another feature to break the ice between members who are trying to communicate with each other.
Submit Topic
In addition to the 4,000 topics already going around, you can also submit your own which users can swipe on. Anyone can submit a topic, but it still has to undergo moderation before it is approved. However, there are some obvious no-no's, especially in an app that centers on negativity. Topics that discuss "racial segregation or ethnicity and showing contempt for individuals based on their socioeconomic background" are expressly forbidden.

Editor's Conclusion
Chris Pleines Founder of Datingscout and Author of the book "Online Dating for Dummies"
Hater truly is a unique and interesting app. Instead of going on rants on your social media accounts about things you truly despise, you can just use this app to share mutual hatred and feel comfort in knowing that a lot of people hate the same things that you do. However, that's where the fun ends. At some point, you're going to get tired of deciding whether you really hate reality TV or if Tina Fey really is annoying. Once you get bored of swiping, you can head on to your matches and do more swiping. Another problem is that profile details are too limited. We doubt that you would be able to calculate someone's personality based on measly particulars. If you want dating apps with more features to keep your attention, head on over to our Dating Apps category.
