Oasis

Oasis is a social platform that removes the friction from forming genuine new connections in a hyper-local context, focusing on shared activities rather than endless profiles.

The app functions as a proximity-based discovery engine for spontaneous social interactions. Unlike traditional social networks that prioritize curated digital identities, Oasis is built around the premise of "intent-based matching." Users broadcast a current activity or interest—such as grabbing coffee, playing basketball, or attending a local gallery opening—and the algorithm surfaces other active users within a defined geographic radius who have expressed a similar intent for the same time window. The core loop is fast: you post an activity, receive match notifications, and initiate a chat to confirm logistics. There is no persistent newsfeed or photo album; the ephemeral nature of each post reduces social pressure and encourages real-world action.

The user interface is deliberately minimal, with a primary screen showing a live map of nearby "oases" (active posts). Filtering is available by activity type (e.g., food, sports, arts) and time window (e.g., next 30 minutes, today). Privacy controls are granular, allowing users to hide their exact location while still showing a general neighborhood. A key mechanic is the "2-hour expiry" on all posts, which prevents stale listings and ensures the feed reflects current, actionable opportunities. Onboarding is streamlined, requiring only a phone number for verification and a first name; no profile picture is mandatory to lower the entry barrier.

• Proximity-based activity matching for real-time, in-person connections.
• Ephemeral posts expire after two hours to maintain feed relevance.
• Granular privacy controls to mask exact location from other users.
• Activity type and time window filters for precise discovery.
• Minimal profile requirement to reduce social friction and onboarding time.

Consider downloading Oasis if you value spontaneous local experiences over curated online personas.
