## What is Nearvy?

Nearvy helps you find people and events nearby. Open the map, see what's happening around you, and join in — it's that simple.

CREATE & DISCOVER EVENTS
Plan a walk, a coffee meetup, or any outdoor activity. Set the time, pick a spot on the map, and let others find you. Or browse events created by people near you and send a request to join.

LIVE WALKS
Start a spontaneous walk right now. People nearby get notified and can join you on the go. No planning needed — just tap and walk.

CHAT WITH EVERYONE
Every event has a group chat where participants can coordinate, share photos, and send voice messages. You can also message people directly.

MAP-FIRST EXPERIENCE
Everything lives on the map. See events around you, filter by time (now, today, tomorrow, this week), and find what's closest. Your location stays private — others only see the events, not you.

NOTIFICATIONS THAT MATTER
Get notified when someone wants to join your event, when your request is accepted, when you get a message, or when a live walk starts nearby. You control which notifications you receive.

KEY FEATURES
• Interactive map with nearby events and walks
• Create events with time, location, and cover photo
• Start live walks and notify people nearby
• Group and direct messaging with photos and voice
• Push notifications for messages, requests, and reminders

Nearvy is free to use. Go outside, meet someone new.
