Small distance. First step.

From nearby
to “see you there.”

No perfect opening line required. A shared place is already something in common.

01 / SAY SOMETHING

Put it on the Radar.

Pick a channel and post to people nearby. Coffee, a workout, a spontaneous plan. Your post stays visible for 15 minutes.

02 / MAKE A CONNECTION

A name becomes a person.

Tap a profile, see a little more and send a friend request. You both choose whether to connect.

03 / KEEP TALKING

Take the chat with you.

Once the request is accepted, start a DM. Your conversation can continue after you leave the area.

Less distance between us.

A new friend.
A little spark.
A good afternoon.

Radar starts with the moment you're in. You choose the channel, share a thought and decide who you want to know better.

You don't need a reason.
Just something to say.

Stay in control with mutual connections before DMs, plus block and report tools on profiles. Read our community standards.

Good to know

A few things
before hello.

Can I use Radar now?

Radar is in early Android testing, initially with Dutch (+31) phone numbers. Email us to request access. It isn't listed on Google Play yet, and there is no public iPhone release. Nearby activity depends on who else is using Radar around you.

What does “nearby” mean?

*The sending and receiving radius is 50 metres. GPS uncertainty can add up to 20 metres of allowance. Other users see a range label, not your coordinates, but can infer that you're nearby. Location is used while you use nearby messaging.

Is Radar free?

Yes. New accounts start on Free, with three channel selections. Purchases are currently disabled. You can email us to request complimentary Plus with six channel selections. It is granted manually, costs nothing and never converts automatically to a paid plan.

Who can contact me?

Nearby posts are visible to eligible people receiving that channel. Direct messages require an accepted friend request. You can block or report a profile, and delete your account from Privacy & safety.

What happens to my information?

Your phone number isn't displayed on your profile, and only your age is public. Radar processes your location to deliver nearby posts. DMs are not end-to-end encrypted. See our privacy policy for details, and account deletion for your options.

Be part of the first hello.
