Yonda helps you find them. Every day you're in the same places as people who share your interests, you just don't know they're there. Now you will.
Four taps, start to finish. Keep scrolling to move through it.
Nobody can see you right now
You're both still at Bondi Social
A café, a gym, a gig, a rooftop bar. Somewhere you were already going.
The people around you could be lifelong friends, business partners, travel companions, or someone special. You just can't see it.
We got tired of matching with people we'd never actually meet. So we built the app we wished existed, the Yonda team.
You're somewhere you were going anyway. One tap makes you visible to the people around you, and only them.
Visible at Bondi Social
A calm list, not a swipe deck. The venue, how many are here, and what each person is actually up for tonight, with how far away they are.
A nod is the lowest-stakes gesture there is. If it's mutual, you've crossed, and you already know they're interested before you walk over.
You're both still here
Once you cross, you get a few minutes to say something while you're both still there. If neither of you acts on it, nothing is saved. That's the point: no graveyard of thousands of matches you never spoke to.
Say hi while you're both still at Bondi Social.
Later, Yonda asks one quiet question: keep them, or not. Choose "Don't show again" and you won't appear to each other again, even at the same venue on the same night. Your call, always, and they're never told.
Only you see this. Alex is never told what you choose.
Every venue has its own live count. Hover a card to see who's already there.
A gym partner, a travel companion, a friend, someone to talk to at the gig, or yes, sometimes something more. Yonda is real-time and venue-based, so you only ever see people who are actually here, right now.
No connection requests sitting unanswered, no swipe that might get seen next week. Yonda only shows you people who are in view right now, at the same place, at the same time.
Someone a kilometre away on another app could like you back a week from now, long after the moment's gone. On Yonda, if you're both here, you both know it's live.
Shy, or just not the type to walk up cold? Send a nod before you approach. If it's mutual, you already know they're interested, no awkward first move required.
No endless list of people you'll never actually meet. If you don't connect while you're both there, it drifts, no guilt, no pile-up, no thousands of dead matches.
Yonda never shows your exact location, only the venue, and only while you choose to be in view. Nothing tracks you in the background, and when you step out, Yonda quietly steps out too.

No. Yonda is for anyone you might want to meet, a gym partner, a travel companion, a friend, someone to talk to at the gig, or yes, sometimes something more. Romance is one use case among many, not the whole point.
Yonda only knows which venue you're in while you're in view, never your exact location, and never in the background. Step out, and you're invisible again.
Nobody, until you go in view at a venue. Your profile and photos appear only when you decide they do.
After you've crossed with someone, Yonda asks whether to keep them. If you choose not to, you simply won't appear to each other again, even at the same venue on the same night. They're never told, and nothing is shared.
No. Photos are optional throughout. You can participate fully without ever adding one.
We're launching first in Sydney and Melbourne. Join the waitlist to be notified the moment we go live.
