троппа помогает встретиться вживую вокруг общего занятия. кто-то хочет покататься на роликах в компании, сходить в кино другой парой, выпить пива в баре, выбраться на велике за город, не сидеть в одиночестве вечером. ты публикуешь короткое объявление, и приложение находит людей, которые рядом и которым это интересно. троппа делает первый шаг лёгким, и на этом её работа заканчивается. дальше сами решаете, что из встречи вырастет: ничего, разовая компания на вечер, повторяющиеся вылазки, дружба на годы. приложение не подталкивает ни в одну сторону. чем троппа не является: - не дейтинг. никаких сердечек, свайпов, лайков на профили, оценок внешности. - не поиск друзей по анкете. совместимость проявляется в действии, а не в чтении профиля. - не социальная сеть. нет ленты, сторис, фоточек обеда. - не афиша города. всё содержание создают сами люди. как это работает: 1. открываешь тропу: что делаешь, где и когда. 2. видишь отклики тех, кто рядом и кому по пути. 3. договариваетесь в служебном чате о деталях. свободный вход и свободный выход: прийти легко, остаться или разойтись, твоё решение.

VaultGrid is a social network for building an active social life through real-world experiences. Discover local events, activities and communities, then join people who share your interests. Instead of endlessly scrolling through posts, you can share ideas for things to do: other users can react, join your event and keep you company — and you can do the same for them. Gamified features make participation more engaging and help you see your social progress. As you attend events and express your interests, VaultGrid learns your social preferences and recommends activities, communities that are more relevant to you. The more you participate, the better the recommendations become. VaultGrid is built around a clear community culture, shared rules and safety tools that support respectful behaviour and help maintain a comfortable, high-quality community for everyone. Spend less time searching for connection and more time taking part in real social life. Terms of Use (EULA): https://vaultgrid.net/legal/terms OPTIONAL IN-APP PURCHASES VaultGrid can be used for free. Plus and Premium subscriptions and other digital items are optional in-app purchases that require a separate purchase. Prices and billing periods are shown in the app before confirmation.
