## What is Heat Discover?

Heat shows you which venues are busy in your city right now.

Open the map and see which bars, restaurants, and clubs are picking up
tonight, which are winding down, and which match your taste. Tap any
venue for a live activity score, what the crowd is like, and real-time
updates from people who are there.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
Every venue shows a live activity score and crowd profile — so you know
whether it's busy, quiet, or your kind of place before you leave the
house.

MATCHES YOUR TASTE
Heat learns the kinds of venues you like from your saved preferences.
Every spot shows how well it fits your taste tonight — your favourite
cocktail bar, the brunch place, the live-music venue you keep going back
to.

SEE FRIENDS ON THE MAP
Check in to let friends and followers know where you are, see who's out,
and coordinate plans without the group-chat back-and-forth. You control
who can see your check-in — visibility is always opt-in.

LIVE VENUE THREADS
Every venue has a real-time thread for short updates — how long the queue
is, whether there's a table free, what's playing. Chat is moderated and
you can report or hide anything that breaks the community guidelines.

CHECK IN AND DISCOVER
Checking in counts you toward the venue's live activity. While you're
there, you can see other people who've chosen to be visible at the same
spot, with limited profiles and no location sharing.

REAL-TIME, NOT HISTORICAL
Activity refreshes throughout the night so the map always shows what's
happening now, not what happened last week.

Heat is live in Barcelona. More cities coming soon.
