RAWR Beta is live.
RAWR shows you who's nearby and online this second, sorted by distance. Verified profiles rank higher. Your couch ranks lower. Free to join.
Take it before "Alex_23" does.
01 / How it works
02
A live selfie check against profile photos earns the Verified badge. Catfish hate it.
Who's online near you, sorted by distance. Verified profiles rank higher, and you can switch off personalised ordering any time.

03
Free tonight? Flip it on. Visible on the map only for as long as your window stays open.

04
Start a Chill session to open a temporary group for meeting up nearby. Anyone close by can ask to join, you can share an album with the group, and it closes itself the moment the timer runs out.

05
Share photos and videos only with people you grant access to. Revoke it any time. Yes, even him.

06
Blur every photo in your grid with one tap, or browse invisibly the rest of the time.

07
Text, video calls and read receipts in one place. Auto-translate handles the language, the first line is still on you.

08
Every account confirms adult status before entering. No exceptions.

MEET A MEMBER
Every profile on RAWR belongs to a real person. Verified members carry the Verified badge, so you know who you are talking to before you say hi.
“poblenou local, if there’s a decent techno set playing i’m probably there. into chill hangs more than clubbing till 6am these days. dm if you’re around, always down for a coffee or something more.”
CHILL, ON DISPLAY
Meet our Demo-Chill: an open group of demo profiles, so you don’t have to guess what you’d be walking into. The real Chills near you exist too. Just not for window shoppers.
It’s free. Takes less time than your hesitation.
02 / Features
Made by people who got tired of "hey" as an opening line.
03 / Safety
Built by and for the community it serves, real tools, not just a policy page.
Trans* & allies
Trans* people get tools that keep the wrong eyes out. Nobody has to explain themselves to be left alone.
No app can promise that nothing ever happens. We make it harder for it to reach you.
Chats
If you and the other person switch encryption on in the settings, the text of your messages is encrypted on your device. Then, without a report, we cannot read it.
Older messages stay readable as before. All details are in the privacy policy.

06 / FAQ
Everything you'd want to know before you join.
Yes. The grid, chats, and core features are completely free. Pro and RAWR+ unlock more profiles nearby, advanced filters, and other extras.
At sign-up you take a quick live selfie that's automatically checked against your stated age. The image is never shown on your profile, it's used only for that check.
A time-limited status that tells others you're available right now, great for spontaneous meetups. It lasts 30 minutes (Free) or 60 minutes (Pro and RAWR+), and you can end it anytime.
The grid is the home screen: a wall of photos of people near you, closest and most active first. Tap a photo to open the profile. Verified profiles rank higher. You only see people who are around you right now, and you can narrow the list with the filter button.
Only your approximate distance from other users, never your exact location. You can also turn on ~1km fuzzing in settings for extra discretion.
The lime Verified badge means the person verified with a live selfie. A shield means the identity was confirmed with an official document. A blue team badge marks official RAWR helpers. A heart badge means the community vouches for the person after real meetups. Verified profiles rank higher on the grid.
Yes, with one tap right in the app, no email, no phone call. Your access continues through the end of the period you already paid for.
A separate, clearly labeled category for professional providers, so everyone knows what they're engaging with, kept apart from personal dating profiles.
A tap is a quick, no-words hello. You pick a line with an emoji, for example “You're hot!” or “Fancy a drink?”, and the other person sees it on your photo. They can tap back or start a chat. A tap costs nothing and you can send one per person per day.
The RAWR Card is your digital member card with your member number. Open it from the menu and tap 'Add to Apple Wallet' or 'Add to Google Wallet'. Partners can check it to give you a deal. It updates itself every month; you can remove it from your wallet at any time.
Every profile and message can be reported. Our team reviews reports promptly, and automated detection also flags clearly illegal content.
Yes, anytime, from Settings → Delete account. Your account disappears for everyone else immediately and is permanently deleted after 180 days; only what the law requires is kept longer (see the Privacy Policy, section 9).
No. Encryption is optional and only possible in one-to-one chats. Group and chill chats are not end-to-end encrypted. The reason: group members change often, and a secure encryption would have to be rebuilt with every change. Chill chats are also deleted automatically 2 hours after they end.
