Relay

Social media wasn't built for your friends. It was built for strangers, algorithms, and ads. Relay is different.

Relay is the social networking app designed around the people you actually know. No infinite feeds. No follower counts. No ads. Just your real friends, and the tools to plan events, share moments, and stay connected in real life.

Your Friends, Your Way

Instead of a feed, see all your friends at once on your Relay Web — a visual map of your closest relationships. Organize friends into tiers and choose between a Hexagon grid or a radial Tether view. Your social circle, at a glance.

Share With Mutual Consent

Relay's Mutual Posting works unlike any other social app. Share photos (moments) and text posts (thoughts) with friends — but they only go live when both people accept. If either person declines, the post disappears. No pressure. Sharing is always mutual.

Plan Real Meetups

Create events, invite friends, and track RSVPs with a built-in event planner. A full social calendar shows everything your friend group has coming up — dates, times, locations, and who's going. Relay is designed to help you plan hangouts and actually see your friends in person.

Messaging & Group Chats

Send direct messages to friends or create group chats for your crew. Event chats keep conversations organized around plans. Read receipts, notifications you control, and no strangers in your inbox.

Daily Poll

A new question every day for everyone on Relay. Vote first, then see how your friends answered. A simple way to spark conversations and learn something new about the people closest to you.

Personality Test

Take the OCEAN personality assessment and compare your results with friends. See where you align and where you differ — a fun way to understand your friendships on a deeper level.

No Ads. No Algorithms. No Tricks.

Relay will never show you ads or use algorithms to keep you scrolling. We don't sell your attention. We measure success by events created and friends seen in person — not screen time or engagement metrics.

Why Relay?

Most social media apps stopped needing your friends. Algorithms feed you stranger content while your real relationships fade into the background. Relay puts your friends back at the center. Every feature exists to help you coordinate, connect, and spend more time together in the real world.

The best social app is one you open with purpose and close satisfied.
