## What is UNBLND?

UNBLND connects you to real people — through events, shared interests, and genuine anonymity.

Two worlds. One app.

Jules — The Friend Planet
Open to everyone seeking genuine friendships, shared adventures, and a community that truly gets you. Go hiking, grab coffee, play board games, attend social mixers — and meet your people along the way.

Lumi — The Love Planet
For those open to romantic sparks and meaningful connections. Attend speed dating events and social nights designed for people ready to meet someone special — anonymously at first.

How UNBLND works
1. Join and pick your planet — Jules, Lumi, or both
2. Discover events near you: speed dating, social nights, hikes, arts events, and more
3. RSVP and join the anonymous Event Plaza chat — connect with fellow attendees before the event
4. At the event, your alias is your identity — no photos, no judgment
5. When there's a mutual spark, you both choose to unblind — and share what you want, when you're ready

What makes us different
— 100% anonymous until you decide otherwise
— Connection through real-world events, not endless swiping
— Interest-based: meet people who actually share your passions
— Two planets keep your social and romantic worlds completely separate
— Event Plaza: anonymous group chat tied to every event
— Free, no ads, no dark patterns

Your privacy is our foundation
UNBLND was built with anonymity at its core. Your real name, photo, and contact details are never shared without your explicit consent.

### 2/5 — Potentiel, mais non

*2024-11-29*

L'app a réellement du potentiel. Super idée de créer des groupes pour discuter. Cela éloigne les gens qui pensent seulement au dating.. C'est gratuit en plus. Par contre les intéractions sont lentes. Des réponses aux 4-5 jours ou pas de réponse. Ça m'a donné l'impression que le concept ne fonctionne pas. Peut-être pas assez d'utilisateurs? L'app n'est pas intuive non plus. Il faut swiper vers une tortue pour faire un dislike et un éclair pour faire un like (qui a pensé à ça? 😆).  Après le login, tout est en anglais, ce qui ne donne pas une impression de local pour rencontrer des gens chez soi si on vient d'un endroit non anglophone. Donc j'ai supprimé l'app.

### 2/5 — Crashed 5 times in 5 minutes

*2024-03-13*

Looks like it could be fun but I can’t finish my profile.

### 2/5 — Kids are on here crying for attention

*2022-12-30*

Kids are on here saying, “OMG MY FRIEND SASHA JUST DIED 😭😭😭😭. HER MOM CALLED ME TGIS MORNING” after ‘Sasha’ goes off about how people aren’t talking to her and stuff. Well then they come back “I’m Sasha, but not the Sasha that went off on people. This app needs to be verified stuff like tinder or Facebook has with a phone number and stuff. There is kids on this app along about “how does sex work?” And claim to be 23. It’s annoying

### 4/5 — LOVE

*2022-04-27*

I LOVE the concept of this app, and I know that once more people find out about it, they’ll love it too. It’s so fun having the opportunity to connect with people based on interests alone—not looks.

There are a few bugs, though. Both my roommate’s and my phone will crash randomly. Messages won’t load, etc.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind and valuable review! We recently added more improvements! We are curious what you think about it. Maybe one day we'll get 5 stars! You can always give more feedback using feedback@unblnd.com. Thanks!

### 1/5 — The interface is so poor

*2021-12-26*

Navigation in the interface is not good. Confusing and cluttered.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We recently added more improvements! We are curious what you think about it. You can always give more feedback or send screenshots with remarks using feedback@unblnd.com. Thanks!

### 2/5 — Good idea but…

*2021-12-06*

This app is decent the idea is good but the fact that if ur under 18 you can’t interact with anyone is stupid why let under 18 make an account and not even let them chat with people just block it off entirely and call it a day

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind review! The app is labelled 17+ in the App Store. As users can chat privately and meet privately in person we limit the functionality for minors... You can always give more feedback using feedback@unblnd.com. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Great idea but runs really slow and kinda glitchy

*2021-11-07*

So far seems safe and helpful, love the idea and hope to meet some great future travel buddies and get recommendations on local favorites across the globe. 
Everyone’s been very friendly, you’ll come across random creeps here and there but that’s to be expected this day and age. Stay safe, smart, and secure with the info you give out.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind and valuable review! We recently added more improvements! We are curious what you think about it. Maybe one day we'll get 5 stars! You can always give more feedback using feedback@unblnd.com. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Poorly designed app

*2021-04-07*

This app doesn’t make sense to be setup in this way. Also, very few users from my county  (USA) it appears.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind and valuable review! We recently added more improvements! We are curious what you think about it. You can always give more feedback using feedback@unblnd.com. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Friends gold mine

*2021-03-09*
