Why we built Clinky: an offline-first iOS app that helps you see your friends more often and gives every get-together a game worth playing.
We see our friends a lot, at home and in bars, and there is almost always someone new at the table. The first twenty minutes go on traffic and weather while the evening quietly waits to start.
Clinky came out of a trick we kept using. Someone would pull a random question, read it out loud, and the conversation started on its own. The app does that part now, and it also remembers who we have seen lately, so a rare meet-up does not turn into a year of silence.

I built the app for my own table, so an evening starts right away instead of the first awkward twenty minutes. Clinky is mine end to end, the code and the question cards both, so if a card lands badly you know exactly whom to blame 🙂
Write to me directly. If you have an idea, or just a question worth asking, send it over and we will talk.

There are no accounts and there is no server. Your meet-ups, your friends and your collection stay on your phone, which means I cannot see whom you meet or what you answer. Nothing to leak, because nothing leaves the device.
