Most friendships don't end in a fight. They fade out — one too many "we should hang soon" texts that never turn into plans. Cojoin fixes that. How it works Add the people who matter. Set how often you want to see them. Cojoin tracks when it's been too long and tells you exactly who to reach out to — with a suggested plan and a ready-to-send message. Build real streaks Every time you log a hangout, your streak grows. Miss your window, it resets. Keep a record of the time you make for your friendships. Log the moment, not just the date After a hangout, pick what you did — coffee, hike, dinner, concert, trip — and add a note. "Tamalpais, got soaked, best time." Six months later, you have a timeline. A year later, you have a story. Plan ahead, follow through Schedule your next hangout and Cojoin reminds you the day before. Set it to repeat every week, two weeks, or month — and it auto-schedules the next one every time you log. "Who should I see?" suggestions Cojoin looks at your history and tells you who's overdue — with a suggested activity and an invite message you can send in one tap. New connections → real friendships Keep track of new connections and plan time together while the conversation is fresh. Cast a vibe, see who's free Post what you're up to — "free for drinks tonight" — and your circle can jump in. See what your friends are up to too, and join in one tap. Message right in the app Coordinate the details without leaving Cojoin — direct messages and vibe-based group threads, synced across your devices. Group hangouts Select multiple friends, pick an activity and a date, and generate a single shareable message for your group chat. Log the hangout for everyone at once. Your friendship history, synced Every badge, streak, and moment is saved to your account, so it's there if you get a new phone. Your account, your data. A free account keeps your friends list and history synced. We never sell your data or show ads. You can report or block anyone who messages you, and request account deletion directly from Settings.
