In-person hangouts in Toronto · iPhone

Hang out with your ppl.

ppl’d finds the evening your friends are already free, proposes a time and neighbourhood, and gets out of the way once everyone is in.

Tap or scroll any part of the plan

Group of up to 6. You know 3 people here, and your shared friend is in.

Try a live invite

For adults 18 and over. Friends and friends of friends only, never strangers.

Move your cursor across the room to deal moments, or drag any snapshot.

Nobody makes the first move

Plans start where free windows actually overlap.

Group chats stall because someone has to ask who is free, chase five replies and absorb silent nos. ppl’d checks free windows quietly in the background and proposes a plan only when enough friends line up.

Slide your window

2h 00m shared 3 friends are free Thursday after 7. Proposal ready.

Calendar privacy by design

Event titles, notes and addresses never leave your phone.

Connect Apple Calendar or set weekly windows by hand. Processing runs on your iPhone, so personal appointments stay private and calendar places never touch a geocoding service.

From quiet invite to Thursday night

Hidden until lock. Group text when it counts.

Before a hangout locks, nobody sees who else was invited, who passed or why a seat refilled. Forty-eight hours before start, if enough people are in, the card turns baby blue and hands everyone off to Messages or WhatsApp.

Friends of Sam Only when Sam is confirmed too

Mutual in room

Matched normally when your windows overlap, and Sam’s friends can join only when Sam is attending too.

Social grace built in

Stay friends with everyone. Choose who you actually want a Tuesday beer with.

Acquaintances, coworkers and close friends all sit in our phones together. Every friend in ppl’d has private controls that never notify the other person, and you only ever meet a friend of a friend when your shared friend is coming too.

Photos bring the colour

Built for real nights across Toronto.

No follower counts, no public explore page and no strangers. When a hangout happens, share a square photo from the table with the friends who were there.
