Loose Ends

Get your friends together

Loose Ends helps you spend more time with friends, and less time organising. Simply post what you plan to do, say where and when you’ll be doing it, and the app will reach out to friends who want to join you.

Connect

Get The Ball Rolling

Loose Ends is all about friends. Once you’ve downloaded the app, we make it easy for you to invite others to do the same. Anyone with a Facebook profile can connect on Loose Ends.

When you’ve connected with your friends, there are two ways to get started. Either CREATE your own Loose End, or use SEARCH to join in with what they’ve already planned.

Create

Get Your Night Started

Feeling proactive? The ability to CREATE a Loose End is literally at your fingertips. Simply open the app and tap CREATE. Next, select when, where and what you want to do (or leave the details vague), and voila – you’ve set up your Loose End.

Once your Loose End is made, you can either share it with your friends or let them find it on their own when they SEARCH.

Search

Get Yourself Out There

If you’d rather join in with what your friends have planned, tap the SEARCH button. You’ll see all the Loose Ends they’ve already created.

When you find a Loose End you like the look of, just tap it for more information. To get involved, tap JOIN. From here you can see who else is coming, chat with them, and even suggest venues and activities.

Inspire

Find Out What Is Out There

Use our INSPIRE engine if you want to go out, but don’t know exactly what to do or where to do it.

Tap INSPIRE to search for restaurants, bars and pubs, cinemas, clubs and more. It’ll even even let you see reviews and show times for current releases.

The results are powered by Foursquare, so we've got everywhere covered.

Groups

Get The Gang Together

Organising a kickabout? Managing students? Want to be selective about who can see particular Loose Ends? You need to try our GROUPS.

Starting groups is easy, and you can invite anyone else who uses Loose Ends (not just your Facebook friends). Once they’re on board you can create Loose Ends which only you and they can see.

What is a Loose End?

A Loose End is your way of letting your friends know you’d like to get together with them. You can create a Loose End even if you don’t know exactly what you’d like to do, or where to do it. Just set a time to meet, and use the app to ask your friends for suggestions.

How is Loose Ends different from other social platforms?

Loose Ends has one goal: to help you get together with your friends as quickly and simply as possible. That’s our strength. WhatsApp is great for chatting, but using it to organise a night out can be messy. Facebook is good for events, but what if you want to just go for a quick drink tonight? Foursquare will let people know where you are once you’re there, but a little notice would be nice (what if your friends are already back home in their slippers?). Loose Ends solves these problems.

How will my friends find out about my Loose End?

They’ll be notified via a pop-up notification delivered through the app, or they can search from the home screen for current Loose Ends. And of course you can search for their Loose Ends, too.
