Features & Functionality

LinkNow uses GPS to find people within your selected distance range (50 feet to 100 miles). It then matches you with nearby users who share your interests, making it easier to connect with those you'd like to meet.

LinkNow offers three tiers: Basic (Free) with core features, Standard ($9.99/month) with unlimited messages and advanced filters, and Pro ($19.99/month) with all features including priority support and analytics.

You can send connection requests to anyone nearby. Once they accept, you can message freely. Standard and Pro users get unlimited messages, while Basic users have a daily limit.

Use the Discover page filters to narrow by distance, age range, shared interests, and more. Standard and Pro users get access to advanced filters for more precise matching.

Events let you create or join local gatherings. You can make events public for everyone nearby or private for selected friends. It's a great way to organize meetups or find interesting happenings near you.
