About this app

Matuvu is a proximity-based social app that shows you the people you saw in the last 24 hours. Meet people nearby, make friends in your city, and turn the people you see every day into real conversations — with no swiping, no matching and no algorithms.

NO FILTERS, BY DESIGN

Every other app asks who you are looking for. Matuvu never asks.

There is no gender filter. No orientation filter. No search criteria at all. You see the people who were actually near you — all of them — and each of you decides independently whether to say something.

That is what makes Matuvu a social app rather than a dating app.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Keep Matuvu running in the background
2. See the people nearby you saw in the last 24 hours
3. If someone interests you, send a message
4. Conversations only open when both of you agree

KEY FEATURES

✓ Everyone you saw today, in one place
✓ Meet people nearby without searching or filtering
✓ Mutual opt-in: no message arrives unless both want it
✓ Minimal profile: one photo, no bio, no age, no name
✓ No ranking, no scoring, no popularity contest
✓ Privacy-first: your data stays yours

MAKE FRIENDS NEARBY

Moving to a new city, starting a new job, or simply wanting to meet new people in your neighbourhood? Matuvu is built for exactly that. It helps you make friends nearby out of the people you already share a commute, a gym or a coffee shop with — the ones you see every day and never speak to.

OPEN TO WHATEVER IT BECOMES

Matuvu doesn't put people in boxes. A conversation might turn into a friendship, a collaboration, a running partner, or something else entirely. You decide where each one goes. Everyone has the same visibility, and every encounter deserves a chance.

SIMPLE AND HUMAN

Ever exchanged a glance with someone in a café, on the train, or in a park — and wished you had said something? No endless bios to read. No criteria to set. Just real people nearby that you actually saw in real life. The city is full of moments that pass by, and Matuvu helps you catch them.

ETHICAL BY DESIGN

Independent, ad-free, no data selling. Matuvu is built to help you connect, not to exploit your attention or monetize your loneliness.

HOSTED IN EUROPE

Matuvu is built in Europe. Your data is hosted in the European Union by European providers, ensuring the highest standards of data protection and the respect of your privacy.

Adults 18+ only.
