Instant Status vs Who's Up

Instant Status is the simplest way to share what you're up to with the people who matter. No feeds. No chats. No noise. One tap tells your friends if you're free, focused, or asleep, and the same for them. REAL-TIME STATUSES Set your status in one tap: busy, available, sleeping, in a meeting, or anything in between. Friends see the update instantly. Statuses can auto-expire so you never forget to clear them. HOME SCREEN WIDGETS See your friends without opening the app. Beautiful widgets show the people you care about right on your home screen, refreshing in the background. INVITE-ONLY FRIENDS Friends-only by design. No public discovery, no strangers, no random adds. You connect by sharing an invite link, and you can disconnect anytime. PRIVACY-FIRST No direct messaging. No photo or video uploads. No public profiles. Instant Status shares only your current status, with the friends you choose. FREE TO USE Instant Status is free to download and use. Set your status, connect with friends, see what they're up to, and use the home screen widget. No subscription required.

It’s 3am. You’re awake again. You’re not going to text anyone, because what if they’re asleep. Somewhere in your contacts, someone else is lying there awake too. Who’s Up is how you find out — without waking a single person who’s sleeping. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add the handful of people you’d actually want to hear from. Your sister. The friend from work. The one two time zones over. 2. When you’re awake, tap once. That’s it. 3. Anyone in your circle who’s also up sees it. Anyone asleep sees nothing — no sound, no buzz, no banner. The notification is silent by design. 4. If a friend is up, her name moves to the top of your list with a CALL button next to it. One tap and the phone is ringing. That last part matters. Seeing that someone’s awake is nice. Actually talking to her at 3am is the point. FOR THE NIGHTS THAT KEEP HAPPENING If perimenopause or menopause has made 3am feel familiar, you are not the only one. Who’s Up doesn’t track sleep or offer medical advice. It answers one smaller question: is one of my real friends awake too? WHAT IT ISN’T • Not a chat app. No messages, no threads, no “typing…” bubbles. • Not a social network. No feed, no followers, no likes, no counts. • Not for meeting strangers. Only people already in your phone, and only if they’re on Who’s Up too. • Not a health app. It doesn’t track your sleep, diagnose anything, or tell you what to do. It connects you to a friend. That’s all it does. QUIET BY DESIGN Every notification is passive — lock screen, silent, no vibration. Do Not Disturb and Focus are respected automatically. If you’re asleep, you will not know a friend was up. You can add quiet hours if you want a hard blackout, but it’s off by default, because the middle of the night is when this is useful. You also choose how long being “up” lasts — 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes. When it’s done, it’s done. Nothing lingers, nothing announces you all night. PRIVACY, BY DEFAULT • No location tracking. Not now, not ever. • No public profile. You can’t be found by anyone who doesn’t have your number. • Contacts are matched using cryptographic hashing — names and numbers don’t leave your phone. When you tap CALL, it dials the number already in your own address book. • Mutual friendship required. No one-way follows. • Block anyone, anytime, no explanation owed. • Delete your account and your data from inside the app, in two taps. Being awake at 3am is hard. Wondering whether you’re the only one can make it feel even longer. Who’s Up.
