Network casually and meet offline. Make new friends. Escape the phone screen. Escape is the app for people who actually want to meet people, not just scroll past them. Join local communities, find events worth leaving the house for, and connect with the people you vibe with at events. Turn every "we should hang out sometime" into a time and a place. Built for anyone tired of performative networking and feeds full of strangers. COMMUNITIES Five distinct types, each with their own tools: Venues, Businesses, Organizers, Universities, and Instructors. Rich profiles with photo galleries, opening hours, amenities, and paid services. Custom member types. Join policies that actually work. Ban/unban, audit logs, announcements, polls, and reviews. A dedicated management hub for community leaders. VIBE Anonymous until mutual. The person you vibe never finds out unless they vibe you back. No read receipt. No rejection signal. Only matches exist, so you can vibe the people you're actually curious about without the weight of potential embarrassment. Send a Vibe to someone you met at an event with social, platonic, or romantic intent. If they vibe back, you match and a private conversation opens. Super Vibes premium tier for standout signals. AI COMPATIBILITY A compatibility engine scored across 8 dimensions: shared interests, social proximity, location, career, language, behavior, communication style, and personal values. Discover People surfaces compatible matches from your events and communities. Tap any connection for a full report with per-dimension breakdown. Preferences Hub with sliders and prompts. 19 profile fields with per-section privacy controls. GIFT REPORTS Buy a compatibility report for yourself or send one as a gift. Credit-based, 365-day expiry. Shareable links with TTL, revocation, and regeneration you control. SCHEDULE & PLANS A new way to make time with the people you actually want to see. Shared plans anyone can join or fork. Bucket list with mutual overlap and trending. Availability polls. "When are we free" finds overlapping windows across a group without anyone exposing their full calendar. EVENTS & ORGANIZER TOOLS Recurring events with BYDAY support. Automatic reminders before start. Organizer Hub with revenue summaries, QR check-in, promo codes, waitlists, and CSV attendee export. Device calendar sync with Apple Calendar and Google Calendar. MEMORIES Share photos and notes from events you attended. Up to 10 photos per memory with full-screen viewer. Visibility controls: public, host-only, or private. MAP & PLACES Tabbed map for events and places. Clustering, layer filters, and language-aware search. Venue owners can claim their space, manage photos and hours, and handle moderation. PAYMENTS 12 currencies across 32+ countries. Apple Wallet and Google Wallet ticket passes. Receipt viewing. Automatic refunds on event cancellation. CHAT Typing indicators, message search, pinned messages, read receipts, draft persistence, DM filter, message requests. WEB PLATFORM Browse events and communities in any browser at web.esc-ape.ca. Full RSVP flow with signup, payment, and questionnaires. FRIENDS & BIRTHDAYS Friend requests. User-type relationships (friend, colleague, acquaintance) with per-type privacy. Birthday notifications and a simple leave-a-wish keepsake flow. 15 LANGUAGES Fully translated: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese. SAFETY Every user is phone-verified. Vibe is double-blind: nobody sees your interest unless it is mutual. Community leaders have full control over who joins and what gets posted. Meet the people worth knowing. Download Escape.
