Zhunly puts posts on a map so people can find each other for walks, hobbies, favors, and meetups. Create a post near you; others can discover it on the map from any distance, like, comment, and chat in the post. Friends have no distance limit. Translation for travelers; optional friends-on-map (off by default) & SOS. Search “Zhunly” on Google Play & App Store. 16+

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Kairat, maker of Zhunly.
How the idea started
After a trip abroad, one thought stuck with me: nearby people often want the same thing — a walk, a hobby buddy, a small favor, a meetup — and they never find each other. I didn’t want another endless global feed. I wanted posts on a map and a simple way to connect around a real place and a real need.
How posts work
You create a post on the map (when you place it, the pin is near you). After that, people can discover it from any distance — open the map/feed, find the post, like it, comment, and talk in that post’s chat. You don’t have to jump straight into private DMs. For friends there is no distance fence: friends can see and join without a “nearby only” limit.
Why it’s useful
It’s not swiping and not global noise — it’s a concrete reason on the map: “who wants the same thing?” Posts and comments can also be translated, which helps travelers and expats.
Friends on the map
Separately, friends you already trust can opt in to appear on the map (off by default). It’s for “where are you / let’s meet” without endless texting — not stranger tracking, and not dating.
Battery
Location updates follow movement more than constant high-frequency pings, so it doesn’t drain the phone like always-on trackers. Sharing stays off unless you turn it on.
Privacy / cache
We don’t keep app cache on the server — it stays on devices. Friend location is opt-in and can be stopped anytime. If you use SOS-style mode, it is not a replacement for calling emergency services.
Would love feedback — especially on map posts, friends-on-map, privacy, and battery. Happy to answer questions.
