No swiping. No matching. Just doing things together. Spontanoo is the app for making new friends through shared activities — not through profile photos. Open the map, see what's happening near you in the next few hours, show up. That's it. WHY SPONTANOO New in town and know nobody? Sunday empty again? Want to get out but not alone? If you're free tonight, we show you who else is — and what you can do together. WHAT YOU GET · Live map of everything nearby, sorted by distance · Real profiles, real names, phone-verified · Chat with the people actually going — to coordinate, not to flirt · No RSVP marathon, no paywall, no algorithm roulette NINE CATEGORIES Nightlife · Food · Outdoor · Sport · Culture · Learning · Wellness · Games · Networking. FOR YOU IF You just moved to a new city after uni. You don't know anyone since the move. You don't want to spend another weekend alone on your phone. You like doing things spontaneously but hate long plans. You want new friends — without the swipe-match-small-talk ritual. WHAT IT'S NOT Not dating. Not a content feed. Not business networking. Spontanoo is a tool against loneliness — you make the plan, we bring together the people who want to build real friendships through actually hanging out. Made in Leipzig · Chemnitz · Dresden.
