How Nearby works
Three steps from “I wonder” to “hi.”
- Step 1
Flip on Visible
Nearby is off until you turn it on, and it switches itself off when you leave. No one sees you unless you've said yes, right now.
- Step 2
Pick your radius
Anywhere from 100 to 200 meters: the same coffee shop or the same block. People show up by distance band, never by exact location.
- Step 3
Wave, like, or keep walking
Tap someone to see their profile. Like or wave, and if it's mutual you're matched. Hide from anyone you'd rather not see, without them knowing.
Features
Everything you'd want. Nothing you wouldn't.
Built for real-world chemistry, with the privacy controls you'd design for yourself.
Swipe with intention
Rich profiles with prompts, interests and basics. A daily allowance keeps every like meaningful.
Chat that feels alive
Typing indicators, read receipts you control, reactions and photos, all in real time.
Verified profiles
A quick live selfie earns a blue check, so you know they look like their photos.
Super Likes that stand out
Tell someone they caught your eye. They'll see it before they swipe.
Privacy built in
Distance bands, never coordinates. Hide from specific people. Pause anytime. Incognito with Plus.
Safety first
Meet in person, with backup.
Real people review reports around the clock. Every safety tool is free, and none of them tell the other person you used them.

Real stories
Closer than they thought.
Turned on Nearby at a Knicks game and matched with the guy two sections over. We've been together eight months.
Alexis, 29
Brooklyn, NY
The daily limit made me actually read profiles. Fewer matches, way better conversations.
Marcus, 32
Austin, TX
I love that it never shows exactly where I am. 'Under 50 m' is all anyone gets.
Priya, 26
Jersey City, NJ
Verified badges everywhere. It's the first app where I haven't been catfished.
Danielle, 34
Chicago, IL
We were both studying at the same library for weeks. Nearby finally introduced us.

Share My Date is such a small thing, but my sister loves getting the details.
Rosa, 30
Los Angeles, CA
Matching at a coffee shop and then just... saying hi in person. Wild concept. Love it.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Only other MeantMee members who have also turned Nearby on, are within both of your radiuses, and match each other's preferences. People you've blocked or hidden from Nearby never see you.
