About this app

Travelling Osaka alone — what does that place actually look like right now?

Blog reviews are six months old. Opening hours may or may not be current.
Osaka Live shows you the real present, filmed by someone standing there.


■ See where it's busy, right now

The map and the list surface the places that are active this minute.
Somewhere a person just filmed shows up large; quiet places stay small.
Stop searching "is it worth going at this hour" and simply look.


■ One video is one chat room

Find a video you like and step straight into the conversation.
In Osaka Live, every post is its own group chat room.
- How long is the wait?
- Are there seats right now?
- Is it comfortable to go alone?
Ask the people who are actually there.


■ Film it, and your location is verified

When you post a video, the fact that you were there is recorded with it,
and you become the host of that room.
The host can keep the conversation clean and pin where and when to meet.
A conversation led by someone verified on the spot is easier to trust.


■ Travelling alone, without being alone

People curious about the same place gather in one room.
Take the information and leave, or go together if it feels right.
Join without pressure, and share only as much as you want.


■ Who it's for

- Anyone travelling Osaka solo
- Anyone who wants the situation now, not last year's search result
- Anyone who wants a short, low-pressure conversation in an unfamiliar city
- Anyone tired of queues and wasted trips


■ Staying safe

- Only people with a verified location can open a room
- Hosts can delete inappropriate messages and remove users
- Every post and conversation can be reported and blocked
- Reported content is reviewed and acted on

Meeting people you don't know always calls for care.
Meet in public places, and share personal details slowly.


■ Permissions

- Location: to find nearby places and verify where a video was filmed
- Camera and microphone: to record video on the spot
- Notifications: to receive updates from rooms you've joined

Permissions are requested only when the related feature is used, and the
rest of the app keeps working if you decline.

Osaka Live starts in Osaka.
The real present of a place, from the people who are in it.
