## What is Zmala?

Zmala turns "who's bringing what?" into one link.

Create the event, share the link, done. Your friends open it, type a name, and RSVP. No account, no password to forget, no app to install if they'd rather not. It works on an iPhone or straight from a browser.

WHAT IT DOES

• One link for everyone. Tap Share and send it anywhere: Messages, WhatsApp, email. Guests RSVP in seconds.
• A bring list that adds up. Say you need 12 sodas and 20 burgers; guests claim what they'll bring, and everyone sees what's still missing.
• Real headcounts. Guests bring +1s, so Zmala counts people, not replies.
• Nudge the undecided. One tap reminds the guests who haven't answered. No awkward group-chat follow-up.
• Day-of check-off. Tick things off as they arrive so you know what actually showed up.
• Reminders. Everyone who's going gets a reminder the day before.
• Add to calendar. Export any event to your calendar app.
• Categories and notes. Food, drinks, gear, with notes like "gluten-free, please".

NO ACCOUNT NEEDED. NO ADS. NO TRACKERS.

Sign-up is never required: your device gets an anonymous identifier. No email, no phone number, no password. An optional Apple or Google backup (in Settings) exists only to bring your events to a new phone. No ads, no analytics SDKs, nothing sold to anyone. Your data is hosted in Europe and sent over HTTPS only.

YOUR DATA, YOUR CALL

Delete an event you host and it disappears for every guest. Leave any event you joined. Or wipe every trace of yourself at once with Settings → Delete my data. Immediate, permanent, and you don't have to email anyone to make it happen.

MADE FOR

Potlucks and dinner parties. Barbecues and picnics. Apéros. Birthdays. Camping trips. Anything where more than three people have to agree on who brings the ice.

Questions or trouble? A human answers, usually the same day: support@zmala.app


## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 0.6.0 — 2026-09-09

Your events now follow you.

• Optional backup: link Apple or Google in Settings and find your events on your next phone. Guests still never need an account.
• The recap now shares as a picture, ready for the group chat.
• A gentle heads-up when your invite has not gone out yet.
• Two example events to step into, from "How Zmala works".
• Swipe a card left: the actions fit in one slim column.

### 0.5.0 — 2026-09-01

A fresh coat of everything.

• New look: floating + button, cleaner cards, smoother sheets
• Dark mode — automatic, or pin it with the sun/moon switch
• Can't pick a date? Propose several and let guests vote
• +1s made clear, and a simple − / + for your group
• Get a push when someone joins your event and answers
• Tap the badge to flip Planned ↔ Confirmed; cancel safely from the ⋯ menu
• A guided tour that finally behaves

### 0.4.0 — 2026-08-31

Zmala speaks French.

The app now follows your phone's language, and there's a picker in Settings if you'd rather choose yourself.

New: a short walkthrough the first time you open a party — create it, share one link, and watch the bring list fill up.

Also in this release: your invite code and link are easy to find and copy from the event itself, so you never have to go hunting for the link you already sent.

### 0.3.0 — 2026-08-05

No release notes.
