How do I actually use Howdy?

Here is a step by step guide of how matching works on Howdy:

  1. Create your account
  2. Create your profile
  3. Subscribe
  4. Adjust your radius and age preferences on the home screen
  5. See someone you like and click on their image – this will bring you to the rest of their photos and a bit more about themselves
  6. To like someone you need to click the “Go for it” button. If you aren’t sure just click somewhere outside of the screen to get back to the homepage. If you are really sure that person is not for you then click the “X”.
  7. The person you said “Go for it” to will need to hit that button on your profile too for you to be matched.
  8. Once matched you will get a notification and that person will appear in your “My matches” page. You can initiate the first message from here!

If you need any further help or support we are only an email away!

Don’t worry! Your account is still there nothing has been wiped. You may have been logged out for a number of reasons but more importantly how to get back in; it is important to take note of how you created your account initially.

If you created the account via email you will login that way. However if you made an account using Apple/Facebook/Google you will need to use that same account to log back in – your email address will not be recognised.

“Farmer” can be a very general term so we understand the confusion! Howdy is for anyone and everyone involved in agriculture in whatever form that may be. Graziers, croppers, bee keepers, vignerons, bull riders, horse trainers, hobby farmers – you name it.

Absolutely! Always wanted to meet your special someone with those good ol’ country values? Fancy moving out west and have a yearning for wide open spaces? Howdy has you covered.

Your radius can be as wide or as narrow as you feel comfortable. Remember, when you find your match you should be genuinely willing to have a relationship with someone in that location. So, if long distance and/or the idea of moving isn’t something you are in the position to do, narrow your radius.  If you are ready to dive in and make the move give it a go and make your search Australia wide.

If there is an area you’re particularly interested in but not where you’re currently living, turn off your location services, type in your dream location, set a radius and let the farmers roll in!

This is has been made easy. There are three dots in the top right corner of each users profile. Click them and you will have a few options.

For whatever reason you can simply click block. You can view anyone you have blocked in your settings, and undo it at any point.

Should you want to report, this pops up when you block. There are a couple of different categories to choose from and a short description can be added.

These reports are taken very seriously and further action may be required. We have a policy that if reported, that user will be removed.
