How it works
Stupidly
simple.
Step 01
Open Neary
Find people who are literally near you. Maybe they are interesting enough for you to catch up and talk about life, or maybe just play ball. It's up to you.

Step 02
Ping someone
Pick a vibe. Send a ping. That's it. No bio. No swipe marathon. No unnecessary small talk. Just a real-time reason to say "hey"!
Brunch Today?
Oh yes, let's go!
Step 03
Say hi!
They ping back. First name, rough distance. Walk over, say hi. That's the whole app. No week-long planning.
You met Kaira!
