SMALLER ROOMS. BETTER CONVERSATIONS Moopes is a new social app where you can join discussions about topics you care about in small groups and connect through shared conversations. Large social media platforms often feel like endless feeds full of people and posts, yet low on real interaction. We want to change that. Moopes is built for real conversation rather than endless scrolling, posting, and meme-surfing. Smaller rooms make it easier for people to share, listen, and build meaningful conversations. It’s a place to slow down, express your thoughts, and be part of a community that grows together. FIND ROOMS ON TOPICS THAT FIT YOU Explore a live stream of rooms filled with people who enjoy talking about the things you care about. Whether it’s fitness, gaming, food, travel, music, or everyday life, there is always a conversation worth joining. New rooms appear all the time, offering everything from deeper discussions to light, casual chat. And as you interact, Moopes learns what you enjoy and recommends rooms that match your interests. CREATE YOUR OWN SPACE Start a room whenever you want to open up a new space for people to join. You might share an idea, ask something, or simply create a place for a topic you care about. Set the tone, choose the size, and let the conversation grow into something quick and casual or deeper and more thoughtful. It only takes a moment to start a room, and it is a great way to bring together people who enjoy the same topics you do. CONNECT COMFORTABLY Moopes is built for friendly, easy conversations where you can get to know your groups over time. Spend time in small rooms and build strong group connections through ongoing chats. And if someone stands out, you can add them as a friend to continue the conversation one-to-one. JOIN LIVE OR CATCH UP LATER The app allows you to chat live or jump in whenever you are ready. Moopes lets you move at your own pace, and you can return to the room anytime to continue the conversation. And if you don’t feel like chatting in the room at all, you can simply follow it instead. DISCOVER WHAT MOOPES IS ALL ABOUT • Small rooms that make conversations easy and personal. • No noisy feeds, just engaging discussions with people who want to talk. • Rooms covering everything from everyday topics to deeper discussions. • A community where anyone can join, drop in, and be part of something • A friendly space focused on comfort and connections. • The app is completely free to use with no in-app purchases and no ads. Join early and help build a community centered on warmth and real conversations.
