How it works

FAQ Frequently Asked (non) Questions

Getting Started

Do I need to create an account or agree to endless trackers?

Nope. By design, the app works without you having to manually create an account. See our Privacy Policy for details.

I don't want another app to check every day.

Same here. With Minga Circle, you set it up once — and then forget it. For example, say you’re generally free on Saturday mornings and Wednesday afternoons for a coffee. You enter that once. Weeks or even months later, you might get a notification: “Tomorrow, a spontaneous meetup with 4 others is possible for an hour.” You can say, “Not this time,” and that’s totally fine. Or you can say, “Let’s try it,” meet at a café, chat for a bit — and that’s it. Repeat.

Do I need to pay to use it?

During the beta phase, it’s completely free. Early users will keep lifetime free access, you can find a code for that in the app's menu.

Does the app work on my iPad as well?

Yes, the app fully supports iPhones and iPads.

Meeting Basics

How many people will I meet at once?

Usually small groups — around 4 to 7 people. That’s enough for variety, but still personal and easy to manage. This isn’t a dating app, so you won’t be matched in circles of just two people — unless, by chance, only two of the accepted attendees actually show up on the day.

Can I choose who I meet?

No. The magic is in meeting people you wouldn’t normally connect with. But you can set your availability, preferred activities, and locations.

Why isn’t there a chat when a meeting is confirmed?

The goal is to expand your circle and meet people face-to-face — not add another chat app to your life. Stop scrolling and just meet them in person; that’s the point.

What if nobody is using the app in my area?

That’s no problem! With Minga Circle, you create your own seeds (interests, places, and times) and then you can simply forget about it — there’s nothing you need to do day to day. When others join, opportunities can pop up anytime — you might be surprised in a few months!

Safety & Comfort

Is it safe?

We only suggest public places for meetups. You decide whether to accept a circle. If something feels off, you can skip it.

I’m nervous about meeting strangers, even in a public place.

That’s completely okay. If meeting new people feels uncomfortable for you right now, this app is not for your (at the moment).

What if we have nothing in common?

It can happen — that’s life. If you feel uncomfortable, you can always leave. Try again next time. The app creates opportunities, and not every one will click. But some might surprise you. Give it a chance.

Scheduling & Availability

What if I can't make it last minute?

No problem. Just decline the invitation in the app. There’s no penalty — life happens. Another opportunity will come in the future.

Can I bring a friend to a meeting?

Well... Imagine three people know each other and one person is alone there. How would you feel?

What if no one is available when I am?

Then nothing happens — and that’s fine. You’ll only hear from us when there’s a real match for your time, location, and activity.

Do I have to share my exact location?

No. You only choose general meeting areas (like neighborhoods or districts) so we can suggest relevant meetups.

Leaving or Pausing

What if I want to stop using the app?

You can simply uninstall it. We don’t store unnecessary data, and you don’t need to “cancel” anything. In fact, as you can see in our Privacy Policy, all anonymous data is automatically deleted after we don't hear anything from you for 90 days.

Give life room to surprise you. It often starts with something small.
