Jink makes getting together fun and easy by uniting mobile messaging and private, temporary location sharing. Whether youre out with a large group, on your way to meet someone for coffee, or planning a small gathering, use Jink to remove all the classic hurdles associated with meeting up so you can spend more time together.

Use Jinks three core functions to address all your meetup needs:
· Chat (now with Groups!): see your friends on the map while chatting to make finding each other easier. Try it at busy events!
· Meet: see each other move on the map in real time when youre on your way to meet up. We automatically stop sharing your location when you meet.
· Plan: suggest something to do and send personalized invites in seconds.
