General

Conch is a spontaneous social coordination app that helps college students and young adults meet up in real-time. Think of it as a "bat signal" for your friends—blow the conch when you want to hang out, and your friends get instant notifications. It also features a TikTok-style social feed, event discovery map, real-time event messaging, and much more.

Group chats lead to endless debates and missed messages. Calendar apps are for formal planning. Conch is built for spontaneous coordination—create an event in four easy steps, see real-time RSVPs, message your crew with Conch Comms, check in when you arrive, and even book rides or order food. No debate, no hassle.

Conch is free to download and the core experience—blowing the conch, events, messaging, the feed, and Conch Studios games—is free to use. Premium themes can be purchased individually in the Theme Store, or you can go unlimited with an optional subscription that unlocks every theme plus all future drops.

The iOS app is live on the App Store (iOS 17.0 and later). Android and a web app at conched.app are both on the way—coming soon for everyone, no matter what device you use.

Features

Conch supports 10+ notification types—event invites, messages, join requests, check-ins, friend requests, and more. Each notification is deep-linked so tapping it takes you directly to the relevant screen. You can toggle each type individually in settings, and notification sounds match the sender's chosen theme.

Yes! The 4-step blow wizard lets you create events for "right now" or schedule them for a future date and time. You can also save your favorite setups as Quick Blow presets for one-tap event creation.

Conch uses your iPhone's microphone to detect a real blow! A visual intensity meter shows your blow strength from 0-100%, with colors shifting from green to yellow to orange to red. There's also a hold-to-blow accessibility fallback if you prefer.

The Social Feed is a TikTok-style, full-screen scrolling feed of photos, videos, and memory slideshows from your friends' events. You can react with likes and loves, leave comments, and share posts. Filter by For You, Following, or Nearby.

After an event ends, hosts can compile a polished memory reel by selecting photos and videos, adding transition effects and visual filters, choosing background music from a curated library, and publishing it to the social feed.

An interactive map shows public events happening near you with an adjustable radius from 1 to 50 miles. Tap any pin to see event details and request to join. Hosts approve or decline requests with notifications.

Privacy & Safety

You choose! Events can be set to private (only invited friends) or public (discoverable on the event map). You control visibility when creating each event.

Yes. Go to their profile and tap Block. They won't be able to send you invites or see your activity.

We collect event data (location, time, attendees), profile info (name, email), and usage analytics. We never sell your personal data. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Conch Studios

Conch Studios is the games, challenges, and gear hub inside Conch. It's where you'll find Conch Off blow battles, the Conch the Ice icebreaker game, your win/loss record, live challenges from friends, and the Top Conchers leaderboard. New games, activities, perks, skins, and sounds will keep landing there.

A head-to-head blow battle—lungs only. Challenge a friend, join the lobby, and blow into your mic. The biggest blow wins, ties earn a rematch, and every battle counts toward your record: wins, losses, KOs, and your personal best.

An icebreaker question game for hangouts. Pick from Would You Rather, Most Likely To, and Hot Takes; everyone plays on their own phone and the app picks who asks next. Every card is family-friendly, so anyone at the table can play.

Themes

Each theme includes a custom conch shell design (with 3 visual states), unique notification sound, themed background image, gradient, veil opacity, and 10+ matching color properties. It's a complete visual and audio makeover.

New themes are added regularly via the cloud—they appear instantly in the app with no update required. Browse them anytime from the Theme Store in your Profile tab.

Absolutely! Browse the Theme Store from your Profile tab and switch anytime. Themes are cached to disk for fast loading.

You can buy themes individually, or subscribe once to unlock the entire Theme Store—including every new theme the moment it drops. Manage the subscription from the Theme Store in the app; it's billed through your App Store account and you can cancel anytime.
