Meet Locale places you automatically using your device location — tap "Use my current location" on the home screen or in the place switcher and we drop you exactly where you are, even somewhere brand new. To look around elsewhere, open the place switcher (top of your feed, or the right sidebar on desktop) and search for any city; your feed, people, and activities update instantly.

You don’t have to pick from a fixed list of cities. The moment you arrive anywhere, that spot becomes a place named after your province or region — not individual villages — and as more travelers show up nearby it grows from "new" to "emerging" to an established community automatically.

Send a connection request from anyone’s profile or card. Once accepted, you can message each other and see each other’s updates.

Go to Create, choose the Activity tab, set a time, place, and capacity, and publish. Travelers nearby can request to join.

Open Settings → Verification & safety and tap Verify my face. You will record a short live video using your front camera while following on-screen prompts. Our team reviews it privately. Face verification unlocks messaging new people, hosting and joining activities, adding trips, women-only spaces (for eligible members), and adds a trust badge to your profile. We do not accept gallery uploads or government ID for this check.

From Safety tools you can generate a time-limited link that shows your live location to people you choose. Anyone with the link can view it until it expires — share carefully. In an emergency, contact local authorities first.

Go to Settings → Profile and use the delete account section at the bottom of the page. Deletion is permanent. See our Privacy Policy for details on what is removed.

Email us at support@meetlocale.com and include your account email and a short description of the issue. We typically respond within two business days.
