getHum is a private social space for your closest connections. No likes, no followers, no feed to scroll. Just presence—a gentle way to let someone know you're thinking of them. Your Field See the people who matter most as orbs in your personal Field. When they're thinking of you, their glow grows warmer. No notifications to interrupt—just a quiet signal when you check in. Send a Pulse Press and hold to send a Pulse. It's not a message—it's a moment. The other person feels a subtle warmth without knowing exactly when you thought of them. No pressure to respond. Mutual Connections Only HUM is built around mutual relationships. You connect by exchanging Share Keys with people you trust. There's no discovery, no suggestions, no algorithmic matching. Ephemeral by Design Echoes—quick updates you can share when you're present—fade after 24 hours. Nothing lingers unless you want it to. Your Shared Canvas with each person is a living space that evolves. Privacy-First • No engagement metrics (no likes, views, or follower counts) • No algorithmic feed • Privacy-preserving notifications ("Someone is thinking of you") • Account deletion available in Settings Safety • Report and block any user directly from their profile • Community Guidelines enforced by human moderators • All content visible only to your mutual connections
