How Social Groups work
From joining the queue to meeting up in person — four simple steps.
Join the queue
Tap “Join a Group” and you’re placed in a forming group. Watch the queue fill up in real-time as other members join — 4 men and 4 women per group.
Group forms at 8
When the 8th person joins, the group activates instantly. You’ll get a notification and the chat room opens with everyone ready to talk.
Icebreaker kicks things off
Every new group starts with a fun icebreaker question posted automatically. No awkward “who goes first?” — just dive in and answer.
Chat, connect, meet up
Get to know your group. Share stories, make plans, and organize your own meetups. Groups that stay active keep going — inactive ones dissolve after 48 hours.

Frequently asked questions
How are groups formed?
When you join the queue, you’re placed in a forming group. Once 4 men and 4 women have joined, the group activates and the chat opens. It’s first-come, first-served.
Can I be in multiple groups?
You can be in one active group at a time. If your group dissolves or you leave, you can immediately join a new one.
What happens if the group is inactive?
Groups that don’t have at least 4 active chatters within 48 hours of forming are automatically dissolved. This keeps things fresh and ensures you’re always matched with engaged people.
Do I need to be a member?
Yes, Social Groups is a member feature included with your $25/month membership along with event chats, Sparks, and 15+ other perks.
What if I don’t like my group?
You can leave any group at any time and join a new one immediately. No hard feelings — it’s all about finding the right vibe.
