SONGS NOT FEEDS

Vibes is how you actually share music with people you like — without the algorithm watching, without strangers in your replies, without it disappearing into a feed. One song, one friend, one note. Like a postcard.

01 No algorithm. Just people you actually know.
02 No feed. Songs land, songs go.
03 No tracking. Phone numbers hashed on-device.
What it is

A small, deliberate way to share music with friends.

A song, not a post.

Pick a track. Pick a friend. Add a note if you want. Send. They get one song that's just for them — no public counter, no who-liked-this, no "comments are closed."

Your contacts never leave your phone.

Find friends already on Vibes by matching your address book — without ever uploading your address book. Phone numbers are hashed on-device with SHA-256 before any network call. We can't reverse them. We can't see who's in your contacts. We just check whether the hashes match.

Only the hash leaves your phone.

Discover, on purpose.

Every Friday, new releases curated by the people you follow — not by what makes you scroll the longest.

Your Sunday

Every week, a recap.

Not your top 100 songs. Not a year-end leaderboard. Just three small moments — what color your week was, who you sent the most songs to, and the lyric that hit hardest.

What's not in the box

Things we refuse to build.

Likes Public counters turn songs into performance. We'd rather you actually listen.
Public profiles No strangers. Your music is for the people you'd hand a CD to.
An algorithm No "for you" page. The only feed is the one your friends made.
Follower counts It's not a competition. We don't even surface how many people follow you.
Trending charts Trending makes good music a popularity contest. Yours is whatever your friend just sent you.
Targeted ads We don't sell your data. We don't have ads. The product is the product.
Dark patterns No streak guilt. No "your friends miss you" notifications. No tricks.
A web app Music is intimate. We built it for the device that's already in your hand.
Common questions

Things people always ask.

Do my friends need the app to listen?

Yes — Vibes is iPhone-to-iPhone for now. When you send a song to someone who isn't on the app, they get an SMS link to install it; once they do, the song you sent is waiting in their inbox.

We're not trying to be a one-way broadcast platform. The whole point is the back-and-forth, so the app being mutual matters.

How is this different from Spotify Wrapped or Last.fm?

Wrapped is a once-a-year recap of what you played alone. Last.fm is a public scrobble feed for strangers to find you.

Vibes is neither. It's the in-between: a small, private channel between you and the people you actually know, every week of the year. Your weekly recap shows you what you sent and to whom — not a leaderboard.

What happens to my listening data?

Songs you send and receive are stored so the people you sent them to can play them back. Your private listening history (what you play in Apple Music, what you stream when no one's looking) is never read by Vibes — we don't have permission to see it, and we don't ask for it.

Phone numbers used for friend matching are SHA-256 hashed on your device before any network call. The plaintext number never leaves your phone.

Is Vibes free?

Free for the foreseeable future. If we add a paid tier later it'll be for things like full-track playback (vs the 30-second iTunes preview), AI-generated weekly recap covers, or extending recap history beyond the current week. The core "send a song to a friend" surface stays free.

When does Android come out?

Honest answer: we don't know yet. iOS is what we know how to build well, and we want to nail that before we split focus. Drop your email below and we'll tell you the moment Android is real.

Can I delete my account?

Yes — Settings → Account → Delete account. We follow Apple's required deletion path: your account, all songs you sent, all songs sent to you, your follow graph, your weekly recaps, and your phone hash all wipe within 30 days.
