    Meet in person

    You can only add someone standing next to you. Both of you tap, within 30 seconds. That's the whole handshake.

  2. 02

    Your grid

    Everyone you've actually met, in one grid. Drag them around. That's your whole network.

  3. 03

    A feed that ends

    Photos and words from your friends, newest first. No ranking, no “suggested for you”.

  4. 04

    Words, not hearts

    There are no likes. If you care about something, you say it.

What we're building.

Three things on the way. Tap the screens to flip through.

Plans

Pick a place, pick the friends, send it. Everyone gets one notification and answers in or out. No group chat, no poll, no forty messages to find a Friday.

1 / 3

Instagram, but worse.

Every big social app is built to keep you inside it. Ads need your eyes, algorithms need your time, likes need your anxiety. It works. That's the problem.

Near is small on purpose. Only people you've met, only what they post, in the order it happened. It's done when your friends are done. If that sounds like a worse Instagram, good. It is.

No algorithm, no ads, no AI slop

Your feed is your friends, newest first. Nobody paid to be there, and nothing in it was generated.

No endless scroll

TikTok is built to never end. Near's feed ends when your friends stop posting. Then go outside.

No FOMO

You only see people you actually see. If it's not on Near, you were probably there.

Go see your friends.

Near is made for iPhone.

Coming soon to the App Store
