Welcome!
And thank you for being part of our Pilot, I’m excited to hear all of your feedback and most importantly to learn together whether this app accomplishes the goal that inspired me to build it - to help us stay more connected to each other in the real world.
I’ll keep this blog updated with tips, stories, reflections on the problem and mission, etc. You can subscribe directly or check in the ‘Latest Pilot Updates’ section of the app.
Here are a few tips as you’re getting started.
Start by adding friends
I've seeded groups of people who already know each other, so you should spot some familiar faces. Friend Discovery isn’t built yet so I’ll kick off some Lights to help people see who is already on.
You can invite new people
In Profile → "Invite your Friends," you can share codes with anyone you'd like to bring in. To keep the pilot focused, invites are limited and taper down the more steps away you go from the initial invite.
Turn on your light
The best way to feel what this is: next time you're around and open to company, flip it on. No plan needed — just a signal that the door's open.
Tune your notifications
By default you'll get a nudge whenever a friend turns on their light. If that's too much, switch your preferences to only be updated for friends that you choose to Follow.
