Let's Hang - Join nearby hangouts and go out today

Hi all, I'm getting questions (@brando99 @morgane_prr ) about the difference between Let's Hang and Meetup: Meetup is for events, Let's Hang is for hangouts. Hangouts are: 1- created the same day/evening you want to go out and they automatically close afterward, so no advanced planning like events. 2- typically involve smaller groups (4-10), so you don't get the alone in the crowd effect, it is a much more friendly and inclusive setup. 3- non-commercial, so no tickets or organizer 4- focuses on the users, unlike events which typically focus on some activity/performer 5- Hangout are organized inside the group chat where people plan spontaneously and gather within a few hours. So a typical use case would be that you had a free evening and felt like going out. You open the app and see which hangouts are happening near you, and you join one that interests you due to the place or people in it. I found it to be a great way to make new friends and discover new bars, clubs, and venues without much planning, just whenever I felt like going out, and I don't need to depend on a limited circle of friends to have fun anytime.

Find another interesting App!! I usually don't go out when I am alone, but luckily I am ESFP. I am super outgoing to communicate with strangers. I will certainly use it. Getting rid of phone!

Nice! Would love to have features like splitting costs and arranging time (like when2meet), and integration with calendars so it makes hangouts even easier!

This is one of the things I was really interested in making but never did. In the world of social media it’s much needed. It doesn’t have the traction it requires to function but I am sure that after sending the link to a couple of group chats it has the potential to take off

great stuff, excited to try

great stuff, looking forward to use it today

The app is perfect for meeting new people. It's great for grabbing a drink with new group and making friends in a new town.

This "Join hangouts" thing sounds cool! Is it like a way to find people in your area who are also down for last-minute activities? Could be a great way to meet new people or avoid a boring night in!

Tired of boring nights in? Let's Hang connects you with people for instant, casual outings! Drinks, exploring, or just new friends - what's your vibe tonight?

I love the idea of helping people socialize in real life! I wanted to give it a try, but it looks like there are no Hangouts in my region yet (and I’m too introverted to create one myself). One question: I used Meetup quite often to find events when I moved to new cities. What’s the main difference between Let's Hang and Meetup? Wishing you a lot of success!

How is this different from meetup?

Congrats on launch of Let's Hang.....

I find the app’s interface very user-friendly. Navigating through the options and joining hangouts is a breeze.

I’ve had so many memorable experiences and made lasting friendships thanks to this platform.

I find the privacy policy and terms of service clear and reassuring. It’s good to know my data is protected.

I love how the platform brings together people looking for fun activities. It’s a great way to have a good time with like-minded individuals.

It's a low-pressure way to meet new people in a casual setting. You can take things at your own pace, chat with interesting folks, and maybe even find your new tribe. Have a great time exploring and connecting with new people!

It's a great way for me to discover local hotspots and meet people who share similar interests. It's like having a local guide and social network rolled into one.

Love the focus on getting people out and exploring their city. This app seems like a refreshing alternative to swiping apps for dating.

Does Let's Hang have any safety features in place to ensure a comfortable and secure environment for meeting new people?
