Frequently Asked Questions About Rndvu

  • Rndvu is the group chat your crew moves to for making plans, from Saturday's ride and ski days to dinner after. Every plan gets its own thread, with one-tap RSVPs, polls, checklists and an availability calendar that finds when everyone's free.

  • In a normal group chat, the plan gets buried. In Rndvu, every plan gets its own thread, so the start time, the meeting spot and who's in stay in one place. RSVPs take one tap, with a deadline so nobody's counting heads at the trailhead. And you can mute a whole group, specific people or the main chat and still get updates on the plans you're going to.

  • Rndvu is for adults 18 and older.

  • Not to sell you anything. We don't sell your data, and we don't run ads in your chats. Your messages are encrypted in transit and at rest. Two features use AI to help: when you open Catch Me Up, Google's Gemini summarizes the messages you missed, and bill splitting uses it to read a receipt photo. Rndvu doesn't store the summaries or the photos. Event suggestions (coming soon) are matched on the plan's date, area and activity, never on what you said. For the details, read our Privacy Policy

  • Only if you turn on calendar sync, and only the calendars you pick. Your crew sees when you're free, never what's on your calendar. Turn sync off or change calendars anytime in the app's settings, with no need to change anything in your calendar app.
