Write a thought, share a picture, or simply express what you feel where you stand. Your note will wait for someone else to find it, perhaps long after you’ve gone. No followers. No likes. No names. Because not every thought needs a name. Just genuine emotions, connected through places we share. Features: * Location-based notes - leave or discover messages (within 50 meters) anchored to real places. * True anonymity - no profile or identity required. * Eco-Friendly Digital Spray - your message can be left behind anywhere: in nature, public spaces, museums. * Text & image posts - express freely in words or hand-drawn graphics. * Ephemeral beauty- text lasts up to 10 years, images last up to six months. * Features for your emotional safety: - Automatic review of harmful content and action taken - Dislike/Report feature for harmful content (after reporting, harmful content will disappear from your view immediately and permanently) - Personalized blocking of other users (content from blocked users will be permanently hidden from your view) Safety First All text content is scanned using AI-based profanity filters before posting. Because some words belong to the world, not to you. Users who repeatedly violate the rules are automatically blocked. No personal information or precise location is ever displayed to other users. Suitable for ages 17+ AnonyNote — Leave your beautiful mark, not your name.

Catalink is the new way to meet people authentically. Whether you’re a student, a traveler or just someone exploring a new city, Catalink helps you discover people around you in real life safely, naturally and based on shared interests. How Catalink Works Turn on your Ping to let Catalink detect other users around you using Bluetooth. If two people walk past each other with their Pings enabled, Catalink notifies both users...but with a twist! You control the Ping Delay, meaning you can choose when the notification arrives (e.g., 5 minutes after you cross paths). This keeps interactions safe and subtle. You can also set a Ping Timer, allowing your Pings to stay enabled in the background for a custom duration. Once the timer ends, the Ping feature automatically turns off for your privacy and battery life. Smart Filters for Meaningful Connections Customize your pings with filters such as: - Interests (sports, gaming, music, and more) - Events (concerts, festivals, conferences) - Trending hashtags These filters help you connect with people who share your vibe, activity or location context. From Ping to Link When two users ping each other, both must accept the ping before becoming Linked. Once linked, you can: - Chat freely - Share profiles - Build new friendships naturally No swiping. No randomness. Just people crossing paths in real life. Perfect For - Students looking to meet people on campus - Travelers exploring new countries - Anyone moving to a new city - People who want authentic connections without awkward approaching Privacy First Catalink never shows your live location publicly. You choose who can ping you, how long your Ping stays on and when you want notifications. Experience Social Discovery, Reinvented Catalink blends the simplicity of social media with the authenticity of real-world interactions. Every ping means “We were actually there at the same time. Every connection starts with context. Catalink - Link, authentically.
