HelloMe US vs Kindredly

Know when your closest friends are actually free — without sending a single message. HelloMe is a privacy-first presence app for the handful of people who matter most. Instead of "you up?" texts and unanswered calls, everyone just sets a simple color that says how reachable they are right now: GREEN — Free: open for a call, reach out anytime PURPLE — Text me: can't talk, happy to text RED — Busy: heads-down, please hold off One glance tells you who's around. No feeds, no likes, no endless chat threads — just ambient awareness of the people you love. CIRCLES Group your friends into circles — Close Friends, Family, the gym crew — and set a different status for each. You can be "Free" for family and "Busy" for everyone else, all at once. Each circle gets its own look, so you always know which one you're in. HOW IT WORKS • Sign in with your phone number (a quick one-time code — no passwords) • Add friends by number, or optionally find the ones already on HelloMe from your contacts • Set your status per circle; your friends see it update instantly • Get a gentle notification when a friend becomes free — you choose exactly what pings you, with quiet hours • Tap a friend to call or text through your own apps — HelloMe never messages for you BUILT TO RESPECT YOU • No ads. No tracking. No analytics SDKs. Nothing sold. • Finding friends from contacts is optional — phone numbers are matched on our server and immediately discarded, never stored, sold, or shared • Block and report anyone, anytime • Delete your account and all your data from inside the app, instantly HelloMe is for real friendship, not another social network. Set your color. Be reachable to the people who matter — and invisible to everyone else.

Write to nobody in particular. Somebody writes back. Kindredly is slow mail between strangers. Write one honest letter and Wren, your courier, flies it to people who write like you. Every morning she brings their letters to your desk. No photos. No swiping. No names until you both want them. • Stamp it: pick a mood stamp, or press your own from a photo. • Read up to 15 letters a day. Answer the ones that stay with you, in any language. • Five letters each way, sign your pen name, and the frosted windows clear at the same moment. Now you're kindreds, with a room of your own. • Keep a page just for you: words, photos and voice, sealed on your phone. • Wren hatches from your first words and grows up with every letter. She also gets hungry. Don't let her. Free to write, free to find kindreds. First Class adds rooms that never close, voice letters, the full wardrobe and more open letters a day. No ads. Report or block anyone from any letter. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage them in your Apple Account settings.
