What is mapdap?
You only see and message people who are physically close. The room exists whether you're there or not — membership turns over as people move through the place.
Every neighborhood has a chat. Every spot has a pin. Open the map and watch where conversation is actually flowing — tonight, this hour, this minute.
A vibe is a photo and a sentence stuck to the corner of a street. Tap to react, drop a comment, or open the room and start talking to whoever else is there now.
Sign in with Apple, phone, or email. Show your name, hide your face, link Instagram, lock the rest. Your home location is private by default — always.
City by city
A live wall of vibes — the same posts you'd see if you opened mapdap in any of our cities tonight.
Three reasons to open mapdap today
Ask the people on your block in the room they actually use.
Drop a pin. The locals will tell you. Or come find you.
Sometimes the carriage tells you why before the announcement does.
A note on privacy
— and most of it doesn't exist on our servers in the first place.
We only know which zone you're chatting from — a ~150-metre square, not a coordinate. The map never broadcasts where you actually are.
Phone-verified for safety, but the only name in the app is the one you chose. Show your face, or don't. Always your call.
No followers. No friend list. No "people you may know." Rooms turn over as people move through the place — there's nothing to farm.
Premium ($9.99/mo) and Founding Member ($49.99/yr) keep the servers running. No tracking pixels. No retargeting. No data brokers.
So what do we know?
That's it. Enough to put you in the right room. Not a byte more.
