Link Up AI helps friend groups actually meet up, without endless group chat polls. Create a group, set a rhythm (weekly, biweekly, or monthly), and invite friends by username or link. Everyone shares when they're free for that group. The app suggests ranked dates that fit the crew; members accept or veto. When the date locks in, you can vote on things to do next. Confirmed plans show up clearly, including on your Home Screen widget, with checklist, rides, and photos for the hang. Built for real friend groups • Create groups with a meetup cadence that fits your crew • Invite by username or shareable link • Per group availability so brunch friends and the football crew can have different schedules • Optional activity prefs and favorite spots • Smart date suggestions based on everyone's preferences • Accept or veto options; ties resolve fairly so rounds don't stall • Things to do after the date is set. Browse free (nearby included); Pro to vote (any member unlocks the group) • Friends and Scheduled tabs for invites, friend requests, and upcoming hangouts • Checklist, rides, photos, and quick feedback after each hang • Can't make it when plans change, plus attendance and reschedule tools • Home Screen widget for votes, waiting status, and your next meetup • Group chat with reactions and vote summaries in one place • Push notifications when it's time to vote or update availability • Add confirmed meetups to your calendar in one tap (or auto add with Pro) • See upcoming plans from your account How it works 1.
