Everything you need to know about making plans with your people.
Delete your Actually Hangout account or data
Delete your account in the app under Settings → Account Management, or email support@actuallyhangout.com to request account or data deletion. The full guide covers every step, what’s deleted, what’s kept, and for how long.
Getting Started & Your Account
Set up your account, profile, permissions, and settings.
Create your account
Actually Hangout uses your phone number to sign up. No email, password, or social login needed.
Set up and share your profile
Your profile is intentionally simple: your name, username, photos, and what you're up to right now.
Stats & Badges
See how often you actually hang out, and earn badges as you go.
App permissions, explained
Every device permission is optional. Here's what each one unlocks and what happens if you say no.
Notifications & app settings
Choose exactly which notifications you get, plus your theme and language.
Delete your Actually Hangout account or data
How to delete your Actually Hangout account or request data deletion — in the app or by emailing support@actuallyhangout.com — plus what gets deleted, what’s kept, and for how long.
Feelers, Moods & PinDrops
The four kinds of posts that tell friends what you're up to.
Post a Feeler
A Feeler is a vibe check, not a commitment. Throw an idea out there and see who's around.
Set your Mood
A Mood puts a gold ring and emoji on your avatar so friends know your vibe at a glance.
Drop a PinDrop
A PinDrop says "I'm here now". Share your spot so friends can pull up.
Post an Open Invite
An Open Invite is a concrete plan your friends can jump in on, with the activity, time, and place included.
Your feed: reactions, replies, and Proposals
How the Home feed works and every way to respond to what friends post.
Hangouts
Plan real get-togethers, on your own or as a group.
Create a Hangout
Hangouts are real plans: a title, a time, a place, and the people you invite.
Invitations and RSVPs
How invites work, who can invite whom, and what your RSVP means.
Plan together: suggestions and voting
Turn on Collaboration Mode and let the group decide the where, what, and when.
Hangout extras: what to bring, costs, and rides
Optional sections that answer the logistics questions before anyone asks.
Edit, cancel, or delete a Hangout
Plans change. Here's what the organizer can do, and what everyone else sees.
Calendar & weekly availability
Tell friends when you're free to hang, sync hangouts to your device calendar, and get pinged when your schedules line up.
Public availability booking
Share a link so anyone can request time on your free windows, even if they don't have the app yet.
Hangout reminders and plan heads-ups
Nudge attendees before a hangout, and see weather or venue-hours warnings while you plan.
Friends & Groups
Build your circle and organize your people.
Add friends
Find people with search, contacts, recommendations, QR codes, and share links.
Close Friends, Friend Tags, and Reach-outs
Organize your people and send a quick "thinking of you."
Manage with Assist
Ask Assist in plain language to update your Friend Tags, who sees your posts, or your availability, then confirm before anything changes.
Groups
A shared space for your crew, team, or neighborhood, with its own feed.
Saved Ideas & Explore
Save inspiration and discover things to do.
Save Ideas and organize them into Lists
Turn links and social posts into saved Ideas, then turn Ideas into plans.
Discover things to do in Explore
Browse events, activities, and places, search with an AI overview, and see what your friends are saving.
Friends' Saves
Your friends' saves can show up in your Explore, and yours in theirs.
Privacy & Safety
Control who sees what, and keep your experience safe.
Who can see what you share
There's no public feed. Everything you post goes to an audience you choose.
Hide my posts from a friend
Stay friends, but keep your default posts, moods, and availability out of their feed unless you include them.
Location privacy
Location is optional, used only while you're in the app, and maskable for PinDrops.
Block, report, or unfriend
Your options when someone's behavior isn't okay, from lightest to strongest.
