What's the move tonight? WTM is a friends-only app for figuring out tonight — before it happens. Every afternoon, everyone gets the same nudge at the same time. Post your plan in a few taps, see what your friends are up to, and join in. POST YOUR MOVE Pick a vibe (dinner, bar, chill, outdoors, rowdy, study), add where you're headed and when, and choose whether friends can tag along. Edit it any time tonight. SEE TONIGHT AT A GLANCE One feed, today only. Your friends' plans, sorted by time, updating live as people post. REACT AND JOIN I'm in, maybe, have fun — or tap "I'm in" on an open move to let them know you're coming. SQUADS Make squads for your different crews and share a move with just one of them, or filter the feed to see what a squad is doing. FRIENDS ONLY No followers, no strangers, no public profiles. Your moves are visible only to mutual friends you've accepted. Moves disappear from the feed at the end of the day. SAFE BY DESIGN Report or block anyone in two taps. Blocked users can't find you or see your plans. Delete your account any time from Settings. Less "what did you do last night," more "what are we doing tonight."
