In the mood now. There soon.

You say you have time. Spontanoo shows you what is about to start near you. One tap and you go.

A suggestion in the app: a coffee round at a café 330 m away, on the map of Chemnitz, with the button “I’m in”; below it “Start something yourself”

Four steps, no planning.

  1. Say you have time.

    Hold the button and you are available: to everyone near you who feels like doing something right now. No date to find, no poll, no group chat with 40 unread messages.

  2. Join in or start your own.

    You get suggestions within your radius, each as a card: what, where, how far, when. If one fits, tap “I’m in”. If none does, start your own round with “Start something yourself”.

  3. Meet the others there.

    Every activity has its room with chat and vote. There Spontanoo asks “Are you on your way?”: one tap on “On my way” tells the others you are coming. Once you are there, tap “I’m here”.

  4. Say how it was.

    Afterwards you see “That was fun!” and three short questions, such as: Did you have fun? Your answers sharpen what the app suggests next time.

Home screen of the app with the big button “I’m available now”The button “I’m available now” is pressed and held, the screen fills with green, then the first suggestion appears with “I’m in” and “Start something yourself”.Two suggestions are flicked through, then “Start something yourself”: the round “Kaffee & Quatschen” is created with when, where, duration and “How many are you?”, and its room opens.In the room “Kaffee & Quatschen”, Lisa, Max and Amira write one after another and the vote “Where to afterwards?” collects votes; then “On my way” and, on site, “I’m here”.“How was it?” leads to “That was nice!” for the round “Kaffee & Quatschen”; the three short questions are answered.

Nothing for you? Start something.

Say what you are up to, or pick it yourself: Walk, Coffee, Bouldering, or your own title under “Your own …”.

Then When, Where and Duration. Under “How many of you?” you set how big the round can get: up to five people, yourself included, is free. Bigger rounds of up to ten are an extra you pay for once with Sparks.

Your round is visible and open to other members as long as there are places left. People can join until the time under “Join until”, at the latest by the start time.

How you get in.

Spontanoo grows through people who know each other.

  • With your mobile number.

    You enter your number and get a 6-digit code by text message. Once it is complete, it continues by itself. No password needed.

  • With an invite code.

    Then you enter the code from your invite. Anyone who is already in has some: ask your friends, your club or at the bar you are sitting in right now.

  • No code yet?

    Then pick your city below and save your spot. If an invite code comes along later, it gets you straight in.

Signing in to the app: “Your code is on its way.” with six fields for the code from the text message

What you can rely on.

  • Every number is verified.

    Tap “Sign in”, enter your phone number and confirm the 6-digit SMS code. You get in with an invite code from someone who’s already in.

  • Reliability shows who really turns up.

    Your reliability shows how often you actually turn up after saying yes. It stays private. You can cancel without consequences until joining closes; anyone who drops out after that loses reliability.

  • Blocked means you no longer see each other.

    Anyone you block disappears from your suggestions and rooms. You won’t be able to see each other anymore. Under “Blocked users” in settings you can undo it.

What for? Almost anything.

Nine areas, from going out to learning. Pick what you feel like today.

Joining in costs nothing.

Looking at the map, finding activities, going there: free. Your own round is free for up to five people, yourself included. Only if you start a bigger round do you pay for it once with Sparks. No subscription.1

Frequently asked questions

How do I get in?

With your mobile number and an invite code. You confirm your number with a code sent by text message, then you enter the code from your invite. Everyone who's already in has some: ask your friends, your club, or the bar you're sitting in right now. No code yet? Then you save a spot and we let you in as soon as your city is up.

What is a “spontaneous” event

Spontanoo events are short notice, usually within the next 0–24 hours. Less long-term planning, more spontaneous meetups with people nearby.

Cancel your sign-up

Open the room and tap “Leave”. Until the time shown under “Join until” (at the latest the start time) this has no consequences; after that it costs you reliability. Our recommendation: cancel as early as you can, ideally at least 2 hours ahead. The group is counting on you.

Who sees my location

Your location is never public. Only the members of an activity you are currently in see it live; two strangers never see each other. Under “Live position” you choose for yourself: “Always”, “Only during activities” or “Never”.

Footnotes

  1. Extras already exist in the app: more spots for your own round, a wider radius, additional invites, more suggestions. You always pay for them with Sparks, the credit in the app, once and never directly in euros; no subscription. You buy Sparks in the App Store or on Google Play. Without buying, you get some as a welcome gift and get Sparks back when you scan your receipt after checking in at a partner. Further additional features (Premium) are in preparation; scope, price and timing have not been decided yet. The basic functions described here stay free of charge.
