HangPals is the free app to make plans with friends and actually hang out. See which pals are free, start a hang in two taps, and turn “we should hang sometime” into tacos at 7.
“We should hang sometime” is the most-said, least-kept promise in modern life.
Plans die in a thread of “down!” and “what works for everyone?” — and nothing happens.
The feeds made us watch other people's lives instead of living our own. We're over it.
New city, new job, post-school. You'd hang out — if there were an easy way to actually do it.
No feed to scroll. You open HangPals to do something, then you close it and go.
Flip yourself to “free tonight,” “this weekend,” or “around now.” Only your pals see it — the secret to actually hanging out.
Tacos at 7? A Saturday hike? Spin one up in two taps and pick who can join, or jump into one a pal already started.
RSVP, get a reminder, meet up for real — then stay pals, so the next hang is even easier.
Everything in HangPals serves one loop: see who's around, make a plan, show up. Here's the vocabulary.
Your friends on the app — mutual and real. Not followers, not an audience. The people who'll actually show up.
The atomic unit: a plan to do something. A 2-tap “anyone free for tacos?” or a planned Saturday hike — with a vibe, time, place, and RSVPs.
Your friend groups — the climbing crew, the college pals, the new-in-town group. Plan with a whole crew in one tap.
Flip yourself to free — tonight, this weekend, or around now for the next few hours. Spontaneity, on tap.
A live map of open hangs and pals-of-pals around you, sorted by distance — the on-ramp to growing your real circle.
The free signal, a live map, real-time chat, push notifications. Every piece points at one outcome: you and your pals, together, in real life. Join the waitlist for early access.
Let pals know you're around — tonight, this weekend, or “around now” for the next few hours. It expires on its own.
Spin up a hang in two taps with a vibe, time, and place. Pals RSVP I'm in, Maybe, or Can't — and a gentle nudge follows up on maybes.
Make it a weekly climb or a monthly dinner. Recurring hangs carry a 🔁 badge so your rituals run themselves.
A live map of open hangs around you, sorted by distance, plus “pals you might know.” Get directions in a tap.
Group your people into crews, and choose exactly who sees a hang: just your pals, a crew, pals-of-pals, or everyone nearby.
Real-time group chat on every hang plus 1:1 messages with your pals — with emoji reactions and unread badges.
An @handle, your area, and your vibes — pick from 150+ — so HangPals matches you with the right hangs and shows mutuals & shared crews.
See hangs attended, your weekly 🔥 streak, and earnable badges. The only numbers that count are real-life ones.
Opt-in push notifications for invites, RSVPs, and “starting soon” — on iPhone and Android. Calm mode mutes the pop-ups.
From coffee to bouldering to karaoke, HangPals has 150+ vibes so a hang always sounds like your kind of night.
Meeting people in real life only works if it's safe. Privacy and safety are features, not footnotes.
HangPals is 18+. We verify date of birth and require agreement to our Terms & Privacy Policy at signup.
Get a Verified ✓ badge with a quick photo-ID + selfie check. Members who want to open a hang to anyone nearby verify first.
Your location is fuzzed to a neighborhood — your exact spot is never shown. You choose who can see you're around: pals, pals-of-pals, or nearby.
Report or block anyone in a tap. A moderation team reviews every report and removes bad actors — three strikes and the account is suspended.
Share your plan with a trusted contact, check in when you arrive, or hit SOS from any hang. Meet in public, on your terms.
Connections are mutual by default. We don't run a public feed, we don't sell your data, and we don't run third-party ads on it.
HangPals is rolling out slowly, in waves. Join the waitlist and we'll let you in when it's your turn.
