WhoCards
Read full descriptionHide full description
WhoCards is a conversation game built for real connection. Each card is a question designed to move you past small talk and into the things that actually matter — what shaped you, what you care about, what makes you laugh, what keeps you up at night. HOW IT WORKS Pick up the WhoCards deck and swipe through questions together. Take turns, slow down when a question opens something up, and keep going for as long as the conversation feels alive. PLAY ANYWHERE, IN ANY LANGUAGE WhoCards is available in 14 languages, including right-to-left support for Hebrew. Switch language on the fly and your preference is remembered. Questions are written by humans, translated with care — not machine-generated filler. OFFLINE READY No signal? No problem. The full deck is included in the app, so you can keep playing wherever the conversation takes you. SHARE A MOMENT Found a question that stopped you in your tracks? Share its text directly from the app. WHAT WE DON'T DO No account required. No advertising. No tracking across other apps. No data sold. We collect only what's needed to operate and improve WhoCards: an anonymous device id, question activity, and privacy-conscious product analytics. WhoCards is made by Alles ist Dialog, a cultural association based in Switzerland. Questions? hello@whocards.cc Privacy Policy: https://whocards.cc/legal/pp
