Synee – A Socializing App Reinventing Event Hosting

1•synee•1d ago
We’re two indie devs — one in Germany, one in the US — who met through LinkedIn over a shared passion: fixing the societal problems social media has created.

We believe today’s platforms are built to trap users in endless scrolling—at the expense of real-world connection. While we embrace technology and its incredible benefits, we also recognize the harm caused by unregulated “social” platforms. In many ways, they’ve done more damage than good.

At the end of the day, no matter who we are or where we come from, we all share one fundamental need: human connection and a sense of belonging. We’re tired of metaverse fantasies. It’s time to bring life back to the universe.

So we built Synee, a lightweight but powerful iOS app focused on reimagining how people host and amplify local events.

With $0 in funding, we’ve focused on grassroots marketing, organic reach, and direct outreach to grow Synee’s early community. Here’s what we offer:

Instant event creation — public or private, no friction. Organic amplification — reach people near you without paid boosts (other platforms charge $$$ for this). Integrated messaging — focused on real interactions, not endless feeds. Paid tiers that cost a fraction of competitors — we think great tools shouldn’t be locked behind heavy paywalls.

Special for HN: We’re offering 5 years free (Legacy Access) for early adopters. Just:

Go to the iOS App Store

Search: Synee – Socializing Reinvented

Download the app

Inside the app, text “Synee” in the in-app chat to activate the free upgrade.

We’d love feedback from the HN community — both on product and growth approach. Ask us anything or tell us what you think!
