About

Reenect

Features
Read full description

Most apps want your attention. Reenect wants you to leave. Reenect matches you with two other people nearby and gets you out the door. Less time inside the app, more time with your new friends. How it works: 1. Tell us when you're free, where you like to hang out and which languages you speak. 2. We look for two people who fit with you. 3. When your group of 3 is complete, the chat opens. 4. You meet. In real life. Two rules make this different from everything else on your phone: Your group lasts 14 days. That's the whole lifespan. If there was chemistry, swap numbers and carry on without us. If there wasn't, it ends quietly and nobody owes anybody an explanation. Chat only opens when your group is complete. Three real people who plan to actually show up. Weeks of messaging someone you'll never meet? That's a pen pal, not a friend. Reenect is free, and it stays free. There's no premium tier hiding the good parts. We pay the bills with a few ads, shown only in the moments that bring you closer to meeting someone. Available in English and Portuguese. We believe technology should serve humanity, not the other way around. Reenect is our attempt at a social network that actually behaves like one. Get out there. We'll keep looking until we find your people.

Verdict

The call
