About

Hello

Features
Read full description

Hello is for meeting people in real life — at the cafe, the bookstore, the coworking space, wherever you actually are. HOW IT WORKS 1. Check in. Pick your venue, snap a fresh photo so people can recognize you, and set your vibe — open to hellos, just social, or busy. 2. See who's around. Everyone checked in at your venue is visible, including who's open to meeting. 3. Say hello. Send an icebreaker (we'll help you write it). If they accept, you get a short chat to close the gap — then you talk in person. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE • Check-ins expire after a few hours — presence is always current • Fresh photo at every check-in, so you're recognizable today, not five years ago • Chats expire after 24 hours. Hello isn't a texting app — it's a meeting app • Icebreakers only reach people who are open to them SAFETY FIRST • Every photo is moderated before anyone sees it • Block and report from any profile, instantly • Your location is never tracked in the background — you check in, we never follow • Built for adults; birthdate is verified at signup Free to use. See you out there. Terms of Use: https://ilovehello.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://ilovehello.com/privacy

Puff Hodoki is an on-device self-tracking tool for adults who want to record vape puffs and follow a gradual taper plan.・Choose a 7-, 14-, 28-, or 42-day plan Enter your current daily baseline. The app calculates a linear daily limit that reaches zero on the final day, with several plan lengths to fit your pace.・Log each puff with one tap The home screen shows today’s limit, recorded count, remaining puffs, and current status. Records are kept on your device.・Breathing SOS for a difficult moment Follow a guided 4-7-8 or box-breathing session for about 80 seconds, creating a short pause before deciding what to do next.・Estimated savings and local encouragement Use your monthly spending to estimate savings as your recorded count falls below your baseline.
