Bye swiping.
Hello, people.

Check in wherever you are — a cafe, a bar, a bookstore. See who's open to meeting. Hello breaks the ice; you walk over.

How it works

Three moves. That's it.

01

Check in

Arrive somewhere, take a fresh photo, set your vibe — open to hellos, just social, or busy. Your photo expires in 24 hours, always.

02

See who's open

The map shows where people are. Check in at a spot to see who's there — first names and fresh photos only, and only while you're both actually there.

03

Say hello

Send a real icebreaker — no “hey” allowed, and we'll help you draft one. If they say hello back, walk over. You're twenty feet apart.

By design

Built to end up offline.

4h
and your check-in expires. Presence is always current.
24h
and chats vanish. Hello is a meeting app, not a texting app.
0
background location tracking. You check in; we never follow.
18+
only, verified from your birthdate at signup.
Safety

Built on consent, front to back.

For venues

Run a place people love?

Hello sends people out — to cafes, bars, and rooms with good energy. Venue partners get foot-traffic analytics, a claimed profile, and promotions that give people one more reason to pick your spot.

Claim your venue — free

Your venue is on the map as soon as anyone checks in there — claiming takes a minute and unlocks your dashboard. Hello not in your city yet? Ask us to keep you posted.
