FAQs

(because people still need instructions for being social)

What is Socialz?

It's an app where you can finally connect with the people you cross paths with instead of just staring at them like you're in a 2000s Bollywood slow-mo scene.

So… is this a dating app?

Kind of, sort of, maybe. You can find friends, you can find love, or “accidental” meetings, and anything in between. We don't put labels on things… unless you two do.

Wait… I HAVE to link my Instagram?

Yes. No Instagram, no profile. This isn't a secret witness protection program. We believe people should be findable (within reason). Also you can control you profile to be public or private.

Why would I want to meet strangers?

You're already scrolling reels for hours, might as well find people with the same routine. A running buddy, a gym partner, a fellow cafe hopper, or someone who's also just figuring out the city. Basically, real people you've crossed paths with… not just influencers romanticizing their morning coffee.

What if there's no one nearby?

Maybe you need to go outside more. Touch some grass. (Also, we're working on this, but yeah step out.)

What if someone creepy finds me?

Congratulations, welcome to the internet. But seriously, you control what's visible. Plus, we have block buttons, report buttons, and the power of God and Admin on our side.

Can I see who viewed my profile?

Oh absolutely. We give you what Instagram won't. Enjoy the thrill.

What if I see someone I really like?

Follow them. Slide into DMs. Or do nothing and stare at their profile like 90% of users. Boldness is optional, but regret isn't.

What if I see my ex?

Block.
Or… stare dramatically at their profile while listening to sad songs. Up to you.

Is this app just for girls?

Nope, but girls seem to love it more. Probably because they're tired of guys who can't even say hi in person.

What if there's no one nearby?

Maybe you need to go outside more. Touch some grass. (Also, we're working on this, but yeah step out.)

Is this app safe?

Safer than crossing the street while texting. We don't show your exact location and you control what's visible. But remember, common sense isn't included, please bring your own.

Why did you make this?

Yes. For now. But one day we'll probably add premium features so we can buy overpriced coffee too.

Can I delete my account?

Sure. But don't cry when you miss your chance to meet your gym crush.
