About
Social discovery for real life.
SocialSpot gives you a simple way to see who is around you, learn what they care about, and connect through the platforms they already use. Whether you’re on campus, downtown, at an event, or exploring a new city, SocialSpot makes nearby connection feel natural.
The app
Simple, intentional, and built around control.
How it works

Turn on Share Location and open the map to discover people within about 500 feet who have also chosen to be visible.
Connect naturally
Tap anyone on the map or in the Nearby list to see their profile and connect through their linked platforms.

Custom profiles

Social links
