That’s how your daymaker finds you. Real-Life Connections, Not Endless Chats Once matched, you have 7 days to arrange a Yiameet —a real-world encounter. No meet-up? The chat disappears forever. To stop the countdown, both of you scan a QR code when you meet. No pressure—just presence.

Nextoo is the social app for real life: your city is alive—discover who’s around you right now. Live Map: Go "live" on the map and see who’s in the area. You decide when to be visible, with what level of precision, and for how long—your presence expires automatically. Events & Places: Create or join events and venues near you; every event comes with its own built-in group chat. Happy hour, concert, or a match—find out who’ll be there. Chat: Real-time 1:1 and group messaging, including photos and voice notes. Geolocated Stories: Share your night out with photos, videos, audio, or text; stories last 24 hours and are visible to those nearby. Like and comment. Crossings: Did you cross paths with someone on the street? Nextoo notices and lets you know. Bomb: Just one, powerful move: launch the "Bomb" to reach people nearby at that exact moment. It only works if you activate the feature—and the recipient has opted in to receive it. Matches: Discover people in the area one by one. If you're interested, let them know; if they're interested too, it’s a match and you can start chatting. No scores, no leaderboards, no comparing people—and if you pass, the other person will never know. You only appear in the discovery feed if you activate the feature, and you can turn it off anytime in Settings. Your privacy, always: - You’re visible only when and for as long as you choose. - Exact or approximate location: you decide. - You appear in profile discovery only if you activate it; you can revoke this at any time. - Block and report with a single tap. - Delete your account directly from Settings. Download Nextoo: the city is alive. Where are you?
