Woosh Social
Never miss a thing.
Free · Designed for iPad
Woosh is the app built for your friend group — not your whole contact list.
Create a group with the people you actually hang out with, and everything lives in one place: group chat, shared events, photos, and a simple way to see who's around.
PLAN THINGS EASILY
Create events, RSVP, and sync them straight to your calendar. Everyone in the group sees what's coming up — no more scattered group texts trying to lock down a date.
STAY IN THE LOOP
Group and one-on-one chats, encrypted at rest, keep the conversation going between hangouts.
SHARE THE MEMORIES
Every event and group gets its own photo album, so the pictures from your trip or your Saturday afternoon end up in one place, not scattered across everyone's camera roll.
KNOW WHO'S AROUND
Opt in to share your location with close friends, so plans can come together in real time — go undercover whenever you want privacy.
Woosh is built in the EU with a focus on real friend groups, not broadcast feeds or follower counts. It's a space to actually be part of something with the people you already know.

What's new
• Poll your guests for a date — the option that wins sets the event.
• Choose who sees your activity, kind by kind, with the exceptions right under each choice.
• Share a group or an event straight from its page, and share into a chat from your phone's share sheet.

1.2.3 Sep 24
New
• Start an event in one tap — Woosh asks where before it asks when
• Share straight into a recent conversation from your phone's share sheet
• Message notifications now show who they're from
• Reply to a shout without turning it into an event, and a shout keeps its chat after it ends
• Choose, per person, who can see you're online
• Separate switches for what each group and event may send you
• Pick a language once when you translate, instead of filling a second set of boxes
• Events and groups can be reacted to, and a file or track in your feed can be answered
• On a wide window, your people stay beside every screen
Fixed
• Event cards name who's actually coming instead of counting replies
• Muting someone no longer hides their own profile card

1.2.2 Sep 22
What's new

• React to comments, not just to pictures
• Send a picture that opens once, then is gone
• Save the date before an event exists
• Split expenses in groups, events and chats
• Name friends in pictures; trim, frame and caption before posting

Fixed
• Closing the camera in a chat no longer freezes the screen
• Tapping a notification marks it read
1.2.1 Sep 12
What's new
• Discover — browse public events and groups without an account, as a list or on a map.
• Private conversations — a one-to-one chat can now be closed to the server that carries it.
• Mentions — @-mention friends in a post, in the comments answering it, and in chat.
• Typing indicators, and polls get the room they need.
• Morning recap — the night before, handed back to you.
• Explorer — your map records the places you have actually been.
• Groups — admins choose whether a group carries a gallery and a file library. Public groups get a shareable link and can pick the address it uses, and picture-clock albums are now called Moments.
• Posts — change who can see a post from its long-press menu.
• Friends — decide what someone who is not a friend yet may see and do, replace a leaked invite link from settings, and hand a friend's pin to whichever map app you navigate with.
• Location privacy — where you sleep is its own context, not a public place.
• Albums open on their cover, with one page for every "see all".
• Calendar sync can take your planned events and leave the spontaneous ones out.
Fixed
• A screen opened with no history gets a back button that works.
• The bottom bar comes back to rest on the tab you switch to.
• The home feed notices when somebody else posts.
• A front + back picture pair opens as a pair in the feed's viewer.
• A dismissed sheet stays dismissed.
• A pasted link with no scheme is tappable.
• A group row showing a message opens that conversation.
1.2.0 Sep 7
What is new
- Share your location for a set time, to your usual audience or just the people you pick.
- The map has one location control, and a single filter for narrowing what you see.
- Groups have their own shareable link, and can ask people to knock before they walk in.
- When an event ends, Woosh offers to add the pictures you took to its album. The events list can also show only events that have pictures.
- Add an email address as a second way to be reached. Optional, and you can clear it any time.
- The explorer trail and event discovery both load much faster.
Fixed
- Woosh now tells you exactly what leaves your phone before it uses your contacts, and asks first. Only phone numbers are sent, and only an irreversible code is kept.
- Map pins gather into groups when you zoom out instead of piling up, and the heading cone holds still when your phone does.
- Zooming from the edge of the map follows your finger.
- The full-screen viewer zooms toward your fingers, and a portrait clip fills the screen when you turn the phone.
- Location fixes you could not physically have travelled to are discarded, so your pin stops jumping.
1.1.1 Sep 1
WHAT'S NEW
Shouts and events are now one thing. A shout keeps its own name and emoji as it
becomes an event, can be set for later tonight instead of only right now, and can
reach someone who isn't on Woosh yet. You can edit your own shout, change who sees
it, or delete it — and a shout that has passed offers to run again.
Groups and events have a file library. Shared files and music live on the group
page, and anything new shows up in the feed.
Ask the conversation a question as a poll.
Pictures you add to your gallery now post as an update, so your friends actually
see them.
Albums open as cover tiles, and picture previews fill the screen instead of
staying thumbnails.
Tap anyone to open their full profile.
Your own pin on the map shows which way you're facing.
A public event anchors its block on home, with your own plan inside it.
Videos play a lighter version when your connection is slow.
Creating an event now ends by helping you invite people, and after an event Woosh
asks for your photos in the app rather than only by notification.
Friends who haven't installed the app yet can be reached by text message — and you
can switch that off in Settings whenever you like.
FIXED
The event screen no longer crashes when opened cold.
Photos from your camera roll upload properly, and a picture that fails to send
retries instead of going blank.
Pinch-to-zoom in the avatar cropper follows your fingers.
Private events keep their cover image out of link previews.
Event hosts no longer collect phone numbers from guests they don't know.
Blocking someone makes their invite links grant nothing, and hides them from your
feed as well as their profile.
German and Dutch no longer describe people with the wrong gender, or address one
person as a group.
The nearby list stops treating yesterday's location as news, and movement labels
need real movement behind them.
Holding a reaction shows who reacted.
Zooming the map from the edge no longer gets cancelled part-way.

1.0.2 Aug 20
What's new

• Links you share unfurl into proper preview cards
• Reply to a shout straight from the activity feed, without opening it
• Muting a chat, group or event now keeps it out of your activity feed too

• Shared event links open the app when you have it installed
• Signing out no longer gets stuck on the splash screen
• Shouts tied to a place are named after where you are, instead of "Up for something"
• Your status disappears when your location does, instead of lingering
• An event you don't have access to tells you, instead of showing a blank page
