Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

​

❓ What is Kinly?

Kinly is a web-based platform designed to help people build intentional friendship circles — one connection at a time. It’s not just social; it’s a lifeline for those navigating life transitions like relocation, loss, or starting over.

​

❓ How is Kinly different from other social platforms?

Most apps prioritize followers, performance, or romantic matches. Kinly prioritizes presence over performance — small, meaningful moments like a walk, a gallery visit, or coffee. It's private by default, curated for trust and ease, and succeeds when people meet.

​

❓ Who is Kinly for?

Anyone 18+ seeking real connection beyond social media — creatives, veterans, expats, people recovering from change or trauma, or simply those who want to find their circle quietly, in their own way.

​

❓ How does it work?

• Start with one Kinly friend.

• Invite others slowly and intentionally.

• Circles grow through shared real-life experiences — beach walks, coffee, events.

• Use it like a private address book and calendar for your social life.

​

❓ Is Kinly free?

Kinly offers a 30-day free trial. After that, the subscription is £7/month — simple, transparent, with no hidden fees. 

​

❓ What happens after I subscribe?

You gain full access to:

• Circle-building tools

• invite Kinly Contacts to your Circle 

• Optional features like filters, a Kinly Blog 

​​

​❓ How is my privacy protected?

Kinly is opt-in only. You control what you share. No one sees your friend list. There are no algorithms profiling your activity. Think of it like an old-school address book — personal, secure, yours.

​​

​❓ Can I use Kinly if I'm not tech-savvy?

Yes. Kinly is intentionally simple. If you can send an email, you can use Kinly. 

​

❓ When will Kinly launch?
