Poke - Social pokes for when texting is too much

by•
Poke is a playful social app for sending instant nudges, taps, and pings to friends without opening a full chat. Pick a friend, group, or random target, send a poke, track streaks and stats, and turn low-effort attention into something weirdly fun. That matches the core app-store positioning: quick nudges, groups/random targets, live feed feel, streaks/stats, and lightweight social interaction.

Hey Product Hunt — I made Poke because texting can feel like too much overhead when all you really want to say is “hey,” “lol,” or “I’m thinking about you.” Poke turns that into a one-tap social interaction: you can ping friends, poke groups, send random chaos, track streaks, and build a goofy little social meta-game without typing essays. It’s intentionally lightweight, fast, and a little absurd. Would love feedback on what kinds of poke words, streak mechanics, or social features would make this even more fun.
