Someone you know is in the same city as you right now. You will probably never find out.

MeetUpThere fixes that. Add your travel plans, and it watches for the moments worth acting on: when your trip overlaps a friend's, when a friend lands in the city you live in, when the people you know are somewhere at the same time.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Add a trip. A city and some dates is enough.
2. Connect with people you already know.
3. Get a nudge when your plans and theirs line up.

WHAT'S INSIDE

- A feed of where your people are going, and when
- Automatic overlap detection: same dates, within 50 miles
- "Coming to your city" alerts, so you catch visitors even when you have no trip of your own
- Suggested meetups. Pick a day, a rough time, send. That's the whole thing.
- RSVPs, so nobody is left wondering who is actually coming
- Direct and group messages, with photos
- A live map of the connections who choose to share their location
- A month-by-month calendar of everyone's trips
- Connection groups (work, family, college) so you can decide who sees what
- Import a trip from a forwarded itinerary or your calendar

YOU DECIDE WHO SEES WHAT

Every trip is visible to everyone you're connected to, to specific groups, or to nobody but you. Your call, per trip.

Your email address and phone number are never shown to other users.

Location sharing is off until you turn it on, and even then it goes only to the groups you choose.

Finding friends from your contacts compares scrambled values. Your address book is never uploaded.

Notifications are per-category. Keep the ones you want, silence the rest.

WHO IT'S FOR

People whose friends have scattered across cities, countries and time zones, and who would rather learn about the overlap before the flight home than a month after it.
