Discover the people right next to you.

Loophole turns the rooms you already walk into — bars, cafés, lobbies, events — into context for real connection. See who's here, send a wave, leave when you leave.

Free during the testing period · Requires iOS 16 or later

A warm bar interior at golden hour — the kind of room Loophole lives in.

Loophole is a mobile application for iOS, currently available in beta through Apple TestFlight. Download the app to participate in the limited-release program.

A different kind of social app

Presence is the only feed.

Nearby, in real time

Walk into a participating venue and Loophole quietly shows who else is there. No scrolling. No algorithm.

Waves, not likes

Mutual interest unlocks a conversation. No followers, no ranking, no public scores to chase.

Presence-only privacy

Bluetooth check-in. No background tracking, no location outside venues. Leave and you're invisible again.
