An evening in your city. You're two, three or four friends – and you meet a group you don't know. HOW IT WORKS 1. Sign up: When a round is open (usually a few hours in the evening), one of you signs up your group. A live photo, how many you are – done. 2. Match: We find a group nearby and a meeting point that's easy to reach for both. 3. Cards: You write a task for the other group, they write one for you. Something to bring or to do. 4. Meet: You have one hour. Capture what happens. 5. Story: If both groups agree, your evening becomes a story in the feed. SAFE • Public meeting points, never private addresses • Your location is only used roughly, at sign-up • Every group can leave, report or block at any time • 16 and older Only one person per group needs the app. Currently in Vienna, Austria – more cities to follow. The app is in German. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Terms: https://sidequest.team/agb Privacy Policy: https://sidequest.team/datenschutz

the daily game for your true friends. one question a day with your closest friends. everyone answers on their own, the answers stay hidden, and then your whole circle sees them together. find out who really thinks pineapple belongs on pizza, who's been holding out on you, and how alike (or different) you all are. how it works → start a circle and invite your close friends, up to 12 in all. you can start it on your own and answer your first question while you wait for them to join. → a new round drops every day at the time your circle picks. → answers stay hidden until the reveal. it opens as soon as everyone's in, or an hour after the drop once at least 2 people have answered. the rounds → pick one: see which choice your circle goes for → hot take: agree or disagree, then see where everyone lands → most likely to: pick the friend who fits and see who the circle crowns → two truths and a lie: your circle guesses which one is fake → guess who said it: answers come in without names, and you guess who wrote what → open questions you answer in your own words after the reveal → react to answers and keep talking in the afterparty, the chat that opens under every reveal. it's only your circle in there. → see who you match with. your circle page shows how often you and each friend picked the same answer ("matched on 6 of 9"), who you're closest with, and the rounds behind it. → keep your streak alive. every day your circle makes it to a reveal, the streak grows. friends without the app can still play send your invite link. a friend can answer a round right in their browser, no app and no account, and their answer shows up in your circle's reveal. the app is for playing every day and getting a notification when your circle reveals. what we don't do - no strangers, no public feed, no followers, no DMs. - only the people in your circle see your answers. - no ads and no in-app purchases. 13+. we write the questions, not other users. leave a circle, report an answer or delete your account any time, and circle admins can remove members. privacy and safety details at truelike.com/privacy. free on iPhone and Android. truelike.com
