    Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spreadvk.e... iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-new-elim/id6463781107 We know life can be busy. And we often struggle to make time for the people that matter most to us. According to a Harvard study from 2021, "36% of all Americans [...] feel “serious loneliness.”" [1] We created an app to help people focus on their most personal relationships and guide them through forming more meaningful connections with them, in the hopes to combat the "Loneliness Epidemic". We just…

    A dead-simple web app to find the best time for your next meetup with friends. No logins, no bloat. Schedule with a link. --- When trying to schedule events with my friends, we often have a long text thread of sporadic dates and the group has to mentally combine all the messages to produce a date that works for all. There are plenty of apps out there to coordinate scheduling, but I found many of them were bloated with features that didn't matter to us, required user sign ups and app downloads. This friction is enough for us to prefer rudimentary long text threads. I wanted something that I…

    We have gotten over 1000 voice messages left by the users of our platform. We take privacy seriously, so all data are anonymized and are not sold to anyone. So far, we had a user who said that 'had it not been for Bubblic, I might not be here today'. This gives us so much drive to carry on with our project! We'd appreciate any feedback you have :)

    I hope you are doing better today than yesterday. (TLDR in the comments; or enjoy my story :) ) Why: About 11 months ago, I launched my app for the first time on Reddit's r/lonely because I had previously experienced loneliness myself during grad school. I wanted to reach out to people going through similar experiences by providing them with what would’ve helped me in the past. I felt this was an important mission for me and a much more rewarding one than my day job that I quit my job to work on the app full-time. It was necessary because I did not come from a programming background. I…

    Hi all, Andrew here. I hate smalltalk[1] but love deep conversations and want more of them, for myself and for others. This is why I made pairup.social. It's a conversation-finding and friend-finding app based on the things you'd most like to talk about. Sure, you have your friends, colleagues and family you can talk to, but it can be hard to go deep on your unique interests. Finding and reaching out to people on the internet is possible, but in practice I find I don’t really do it that much. It’s a bit awkward. If I found them on a single-topic discussion group, I don’t know much else about…
