About this app

Guild is a closed social platform exclusively for verified university students. It brings the anonymous forum, campus communities, and events together in one app. Access is limited to .edu.tr email addresses.

DISCUSSION FORUM
This is where Guild's heart beats. Talk about every aspect of campus life — across Confession, Overheard, Food, Housing, and General categories. Post under your name or anonymously; even anonymous posts stay verified through your university email, so discussions are filled with real student voices instead of strangers like on Reddit. See conversations from both your own campus and other universities, and catch the most talked-about topics through the "Hot right now" tab. Attach up to four photos to any post, upvote, and comment.

CAMPUS + CROSS-UNIVERSITY
You get two feeds: your own campus (visible only to students from your university) and a cross-university feed (all verified campuses together). Every post shows which university it comes from.

CAMPUS COMMUNITIES
Discover the official student clubs and organizations at your university. Follow the clubs you care about and see their announcements directly on your home feed. Verified communities display a blue checkmark.

EVENTS
Reserve your spot at campus events with a single tap. Join the waitlist if capacity is full. Check in with your reservation PIN, then share your experience with ratings and reviews.

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Community managers publish verified announcements on behalf of student organizations. Members can vote on and discuss posts within clear community guidelines.

• Respects Reduce Motion: looping animations stop when your phone asks.
• A strip tells you when an update is out, before it becomes mandatory.
• A refused sign-up name now gets a screen that asks for another one.

Plus ~50 fixes — a rate limit no longer signs you out, and the last English corners of the Turkish app are gone.
