Riymo helps you discover people around you through the rhythms you both keep. Your late-night library grinding. Your midnight weekend parties. Your discovery of hidden spots in the city. Your evening runs. Your usual cafe. Your live music enthusiasm. The things you're deeply into and don't know anyone around you who is into them as well. Riymo turns those rhythms into a way to discover anyone nearby, including friends, who keep moving through them week by week. You get to know what's active around you, at any particular time. HOW IT WORKS - Set your rhythms - the things you're deep into and keep doing consistently. It takes a minute. - Discover who nearby shares them. - Sync to join an active rhythm, active crew, or a friend active in their rhythms, with no location or broadcast. - Share a moment when you're active in your rhythm, with an optional photo and a note, to let people see the atmosphere around your rhythm. - Message the people you click with, and turn rhythm discovery into real connection. KEEP UP WITH YOUR PEOPLE - Follow the people worth keeping. Follow each other and trade messages to become Mutuals. - Know the moment a friend is active in a shared rhythm, shared crew, and get to see their shared moments. - Form a crew around one rhythm - a small group with its own chat that lights up when someone's in it. - You choose who sees each signal. Presence is always yours to share, never taken. BUILT PRIVATE - Your location is coarsened to a district on your device. Exact GPS is never stored. - Finding friends already here uses hashes made on your phone. Your address book never leaves it. - No tracking. Go incognito, pause sharing, or block and report anyone, anytime. - Adults only (18+), and moderated.
