What is Ping?
Ping is a hyperlocal social app that shows who's actually free near you right now, so you can meet people in person instead of endlessly swiping. Shuffle to get matched instantly, or send a low-pressure Ping, and have your first conversation face-to-face.
Is Ping a dating app?
No. Ping is built for making real connections and friends in person, not swipe-based dating. It's for anyone who wants to actually meet the people around them, whether that's for a coffee, a walk, or just company right now. Ping is 18+.
How does Ping work?
You go active with what you're up for, Ping shows who nearby is also free for the same thing right now, and you either get matched by shuffling or send someone a low-pressure Ping. From there you meet up in person. No dead DMs, no endless matching.
Is Ping free?
Yes, Ping is free to use. There's an optional Ping+ subscription for $0.99/month that removes ads, gives you a bigger radius, and adds more, but the core experience is free.
Do I have to share my location?
Ping is location-based, since the whole point is meeting people near you right now, so it uses your location to show who's nearby and free. You control when you're active and visible.
