Getting to know someone often gets stuck in the "how's it going?" loop. Riff is built to break that loop. Riff is a conversation game for two or more people. You pick a category together, Riff sends you a question that fits the moment, and you take turns answering. The question is the move. The conversation is the board. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a category with the person across from you 2. Let Riff send you a question 3. Take turns answering โ€” get curious, laugh, get surprised 4. Tap for the next question That's it. No feed to scroll, no chats to manage. CATEGORIES โ€” Social Light, warm-up questions that get people smiling. Perfect for new acquaintances or for friends you haven't seen in a while. Example: "What's your weirdest habit?" โ€” Fun Playful, absurd, "would you rather" style questions. Made for road trips, group dinners, and tables that need a spark. Example: "If you had to listen to only one song for a week, which one?" โ€” Deep Stuff Philosophical, existential, character-revealing questions. The shortest path to "okay, who are you really?" Example: "If you could take back one moment in your life, which one would it be?" โ€” Relationships Love, dating, past relationships, expectations. For new dates that want to skip the script โ€” or for long-term partners who never got around to asking. Example: "What's your one non-negotiable in a relationship?" โ€” Career & Goals Dreams, plans, work life, future vision. See yourself โ€” and the person across from you โ€” through the lens of "where do you actually want to be in five years?" Example: "If money wasn't an issue, what would you do tomorrow?" WHY RIFF? - No more "what do I even ask?": Pick a vibe, get a question. - From shallow to deep, your pace: Start with Social, end up in Deep Stuff โ€” only if you both want to. - Fits any setting: First dates, long drives, dinner parties, couple nights, family time. Pick a category, the rest follows. - Clean, ad-free interface: Just the question and the two of you. Nothing in the way. - Thoughtfully written questions: Each one designed to actually go somewhere โ€” not just fill silence. WHO IT'S FOR - First-daters who want to skip the small talk script - Long-distance friends catching up over a call - Couples tired of running out of things to say - Friend groups with a new face at the table - Anyone curious about the people around them โ€” and about themselves GETTING TO KNOW SOMEONE, AS A GAME Riff doesn't leave conversation to luck. It gives it a shape. You flip a question like a card. You answer when it's your turn. You listen when it's theirs. It's not a social feed, it's not a messaging app. It's just you, the person across from you, and the question between you. Download it. Open it with one person. Pick a category. The conversation takes care of itself. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
