Read full descriptionHide full description
HUBS is a live event layer on top of the real world. Host or discover real-world experiences, join them with a tap, and see everyone on a live map that actually moves like life does. Whether it's a motorcycle group ride, a car meet, a festival, a hike, or a cross-state road trip. HUBS keeps your group together without the constant "where are you?" texts. Start a session, share the code, and anyone you invite (or anyone nearby, if you make it public) can join the experience in real time. — LIVE MAP THAT FEELS ALIVE — Smooth, interpolated movement between GPS updates — no jumpy pins, no waiting for the next ping. See your friends move in real time, exactly where they are. — SESSIONS, NOT GROUPS — HUBS is built around live, ephemeral experiences. No permanent groups to manage. Start a session when you're heading out, share the code, and it ends when you're done. Chat, location, and roster all scoped to that one experience. — DISCOVER WHAT'S HAPPENING AROUND YOU — See public experiences happening nearby and join the ones that look fun. It's the same energy as wandering into a live event in an open-world game, except it's the real world. — BUILT-IN SOCIAL LAYER — Friends, direct messages, profiles, and session chat all live inside the app. No need to jump between apps to coordinate. — PRIVACY YOU CONTROL — Every session is public, friends-only, or invite-only. Background location is strictly session-scoped. When you leave a session, location sharing stops. When you're not in a session, HUBS doesn't track you in the background. — PERFECT FOR — • Motorcycle group rides and poker runs • Multi-car cruises and meets • Festivals, concerts, and tailgates • Hiking, camping, and off-roading • Road trips and cycling rides • Any real-world moment you want to share live — SUBSCRIPTION — HUBS Pro unlocks all features. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
