In the case of Vibe, Hike guarantees safety and says that creeps and fake profiles will not be tolerated. Vibe by Hike is meant for open-minded people who are excited to be a part of a community that treats people with kindness and respect.

To join this community, you'll need to sign up for an application process to ensure that your intentions of joining are well, and to see to it that you will make the community more vibrant and diverse. This app is an approval-only based community. Any behaviour deviating from the code of conduct mentioned in their terms will lead to removal. Looking at the promo pictures and their tagline ', Vibe by Hike seems like a fun and vibrant app. It claims to allow the user to meet the funniest people on the Internet.
