Meet Around vs Hashti

Meet Around - Your City. Your Plans. Right Now. The world is full of things to do. Meet Around puts them on a map so you never have to wonder what's happening nearby ever again. Whether you're exploring a new city, looking for someone to grab a coffee with, or planning your next trip, Meet Around connects you to real experiences in real time. DISCOVER WHAT'S HAPPENING AROUND YOU Open the map and see what people have posted nearby. Events, meetups, spontaneous plans, and local experiences, all shared by the people around you. No algorithm deciding what you see. No endless feed. Just an honest view of what's on offer nearby. POST WHAT YOU WANT TO DO Have an idea but no one to do it with? Post it on the map. Let nearby people find your plan and join in. Meet Around turns a solo idea into a shared experience in minutes. REAL PLANS, NOT JUST PROFILES Meet Around is built for real-world connection. Every pin is a real plan posted by a real person, shown in the neighbourhood it belongs to. Browse, connect, and agree where to meet. Spontaneity has never been this easy.

(App Store and Play, 2,385 of 4,000 characters) Hashti is chatrooms the way they used to be, with a messenger built in. Open a room about anything and leave it running. People walk in, talk and leave, with no algorithm deciding who hears you. When a conversation should stay between you, take it to a private chat. ROOMS THAT STAY OPEN Public rooms anyone can join, or private ones behind a link, an invite or a password. Turn on voice when you want to talk, stage mode when one person should have the floor, slow mode when it moves too fast. Pick a template (support group, study hall, open mic, watch party, Q&A) and it sets itself up. THINGS TO DO TOGETHER Trivia, two truths and a lie, word chain, categories, would you rather and polls. A shared listening queue everyone hears in sync, a whiteboard, a soundboard, breakout rooms, and speed networking that pairs everybody one to one. PRIVATE CHATS AND GROUPS Message friends one to one or in groups. Send photos, videos, voice notes and round video notes, share a location or a contact, run a poll or plan an event. Reply, react, edit, pin, star and search. Disappearing messages, view-once photos and videos, and scheduled messages when you need them. CALLS AND WALKIE-TALKIE Voice and video calls with one friend or a group of up to 16, and call links for the people you invite. Or hold the walkie-talkie button in a chat and whoever has Hashti open hears you right away. STATUS, CHANNELS AND COMMUNITIES Share a status for a day with the people you choose. Follow channels for updates, and bring groups together in a community. PRIVACY YOU CONTROL Choose who can message you, who sees when you were last online, and who can add you to groups. Lock the app, or only the chats you want kept out of sight. Secret chats between friends are end-to-end encrypted. A CORNER THAT'S YOURS A profile you actually style, a wall, a guestbook people sign. Friends, follows, and a radar showing which rooms they are in right now. SAFETY IS NOT AN AFTERTHOUGHT Report anything: a message, a room, a person. A person reviews every report within 24 hours, and reports about a child's safety go to the front of the queue. Blocking is instant. Slurs and threats are stopped before they are sent, and accounts that keep breaking the rules are removed. Verifying your ID is optional; it unlocks messaging strangers, hosting rooms and speaking on voice. Hashti is for adults 18 and over. Nobody under 18 can join.
