User Reviews

Users largely value Hip as a reliable reminder tool with strong personalization options and a pleasant, easy-to-use interface. It’s praised for long-term usefulness and responsive updates. However, multiple reviews cite aggressive ads and free-tier limits that push subscription, plus serious reliability problems after updates (data loss, duplicates) and occasional crashes. Some also report notification issues. Overall sentiment is mixed, with strong positives for features and support but notable frustration over ads and monetization.
Pros
  • Reliable birthday reminders with advance notice that help users stay organized
  • Strong personalization and sharing options (photos, custom messages, cards, social sharing) with a fun balloon reward
  • Long-term usability and consistency (used for years by many users) and generally positive updates
  • User-friendly design and easy setup, with positive feedback on support and ongoing improvements
  • Cute hippo-themed UI that users enjoy
Cons
  • Aggressive and intrusive ads in the free version, with frequent interruptions
  • Free tier limitations that push users toward subscribing to add more birthdays
  • Data integrity issues after updates (data loss, duplicates) and occasional crashes/crashes on startup
  • Notifications reliability concerns (some users report missed or irrelevant reminders)
  • Monetization frustration (perceived push to pay to remove ads)

Dear hip developers, you NEED to tone down the ads, the moment I open up the app EVERYTIME is a 30 second ad and even when you finish it, I move a little bit throughout the app and BOOM, ANOTHER AD. I’m about to move everything I built in this app to another app. Either change or I’m leaving. A 5 out of 5 star app is now a 1 out of 5 star app. Change how aggressive ads are or bye bye.

Update- issue has been fixed. It’s usable now I’ve had this app for years with no problems. But now it’s unbearable. I understand the need to include ads but now I can’t even access my list. I just sat through SIX ads and it still won’t let me see what’s coming up without another ad popping up.
