## What is Sparr?

Stop scrolling group chats looking for a training partner. Sparr shows you every sparring session, open mat, and martial arts class happening near you then verifies you actually showed up.

Sparr is built only for martial arts: boxing, MMA, BJJ, Muay Thai, kickboxing, judo, wrestling, grappling, and pad work. No generic fitness noise — just
fighters and gyms.

  FIND YOUR NEXT SESSION
  • Live map of sparring sessions, open mats, and hub classes near you
  • Filter by discipline, date, and location
  • Anyone can host a session — solo fighters or verified gyms
  • One tap opens Apple Maps or Google Maps to get you there

  VERIFIED ATTENDANCE, REAL REPUTATION
  • Every session has a QR code — scan on arrival to confirm you showed up
  • Attendance builds your reliability score, visible on your public profile
  • No more flaking, no more no-shows — your training history speaks for itself

  BUILD YOUR TRAINING HISTORY
  • Every verified session becomes part of your public profile
  • Unlock a Memory Wall after each session — photos from that exact training day
  • Track discipline, weight class, and experience level

  OFFICIAL GYM HUBS
  • Verified gyms appear as Official Hubs on the map
  • Follow your gym, get notified when new classes or sessions go up
  • Gyms get their own dashboard to manage classes and attendance

  COMMUNITY, NOT JUST A FEED
  • Community feed of shared training moments from hosts you follow
  • Direct messaging to coordinate sessions before you show up
  • Share sessions and hubs straight to your Instagram story

  Whether you're looking for a same-weight sparring partner, an open mat to drop into, or a verified gym near a new city — Sparr connects you to real
  martial artists training right now.

  Free to join. Download Sparr and find your next round.

Train hard. Tell us what's broken — sparr.world

### 1.1 — 2026-08-20

• New Settings screen, everything grouped by what it actually does: account, privacy & safety, preferences.
• Blocked Users: see who you've blocked and unblock them. Blocking now works both ways — a blocked user can no longer message you.
• Fixed your profile's Recently Attended row. Sessions you attended and later left now show up correctly, and completed hub sessions no longer disappear.
• New Message now opens on your training partners — the people you've actually shared sessions with, ranked by sessions together, instead of an empty search box.
• Arabic typography overhaul. Arabic session names, gym names and headings now render in the real Sparr display face instead of falling back to a system font mid-word.
• Arabic usernames and handles display in the right order everywhere.
• Redesigned story sharing — a proper Sparr card instead of a stock photo, and Arabic cards are no longer half-mirrored.
• Activity details now opens as a native bottom sheet, with the Verify Attendance flow updated to match.
• Fixed the Privacy Policy link in Settings, which opened a dead page.
• Colour and theme cleanup across the whole app for a consistent look.
