Hoop is an app that works a lot like Tinder, using Snap Kit (Snapchat’s developer tool kit) to help you find new friends on Snapchat.
Hoop is one of many apps that was created with Snap Kit, Snapchat’s developer tool kit that lets developers integrate Snapchat’s features (Bitmoji, Stories, Ads, etc.) into their own apps.
But Hoop is not just another app. The “Tinder for Snapchat” is already in the second spot on the App Store charts this month, with reportedly over 3 million downloads already.
Ultimately, Hoop is an app that lets you find new friends on Snapchat. It works a lot like Tinder, as it helps you discover new users’ profiles, which you can swipe left and right and connect with them in the process. Once connected, you can start messaging through Snapchat.
Hoop uses a currency called “diamonds” to power interactions on its app. You earn diamonds by sharing and inviting friends to Hoop and then use them to request to chat with other users. Think of Hoop as a marketplace to find new friends and drive more users to Snapchat.
