Add the people you know, talk throughout the day, call when a text isn’t enough, play a game in the middle of a chat, share photos, posts and short videos, and make plans together. Fanyello is a simple place to keep up with the friends who matter to you.

Sent you a photo
Your home screen brings together the people you talk to, who is active right now, recent conversations, shared photos and videos, and the friends who have chosen to share their location.
Send friend requests, add the people you know by name, by scanning their Fanyello QR code, or from your contacts, see who is active right now, and start a conversation or a call from their profile.
Send messages, voice notes, photos, GIFs, stickers, checklists, greeting cards and files. React with any emoji, reply, forward, pin, and lock a chat behind Face ID. Give every chat its own color and background, from 28 themes or your own photo.
Voice and video calls with your friends. An incoming call rings like a regular phone call, even on the lock screen and with the ringtone you pick. Put a call on hold to answer another, or tuck it aside and keep using the app while you talk.
Post clips up to 30 seconds for your friends, or to Discover for everyone on Fanyello. Trim, change the speed, add captions and our own looks, then like, comment, reply side by side, or send a clip straight into a chat.
Photos, voice notes and clips in one group conversation, with mentions, seen-by, and admins who keep it tidy.
Build a full-body avatar or use your own photo. Your character follows you through messages, your profile, and the map.
Share with one friend at a time, for 15 minutes, an hour, 8 hours, or until you stop. Only that friend can see it.
Fanyello keeps growing. Here’s what friends can do together beyond messages and calls.
Mix photos and short clips in one post, add a poll, a place or a #tag, and comment with a photo or GIF. Explore what’s trending, join Communities, keep albums on your profile, and save posts into folders.
Sixteen games built into every chat, from Four in a Row, Checkers and Sea Battle to Flipside, Pebble Pits, Pair Up, Dice Dash and Doodle & Guess. A Your turn bar lets you know when a game is waiting on you.
Invite friends to an event, see who’s going, maybe, or can’t make it, get a reminder, and add it to your calendar. Friends’ birthdays show up ahead of time with a quick way to send a wish.
Watch a video in sync with friends, with reactions and a running chat. Or go live to your friends or close friends for up to an hour. Nothing is recorded.
Posts and clips from this day in past years come back as Memories you can share again or hide, and a weekly recap rounds up your week with friends.
One button at the top of every tab opens Memories, Saved, Events, Birthdays, Games, Family link, Help and more, with search and cards for what’s happening right now.
Start one from any conversation and take turns whenever you like. Everyone gets a nudge when it’s their move, and every game has its own look.
Start with one of 12 illustrated characters, then make it yours: five hairstyles each, tops, bottoms and shoes you mix freely, and your own skin tone, hair and clothing colors. Your character shows up on your profile, in chats and on the friend map.
Your full-body avatar marks your shared location. Friends who choose to share appear as themselves, with live status that makes it easy to see who is nearby and reach out.
Fanyello is for the small conversations that keep friendships going. See who is around, say hello, share a quick moment, and make plans.
Connect with people you actually know and choose who is part of your space.
Send a message, a voice note, a photo or a quick clip from one simple chat, or just call.
Share your location for a little while or keep it live with the people you trust.
Start a group chat so your whole circle can stay in the same conversation.
Fanyello started with a small group of real friends to get the everyday parts right. Next, it opens to everyone: anyone 13 or older will be able to download it and create an account right in the app, and we keep adding to it.
Location sharing is always optional and chosen one friend at a time. Disappearing photos are removed from the active service once they are opened. Calls travel between the two phones over an encrypted connection and are never recorded, and live videos and watch parties are never recorded either. Finding friends from your contacts is optional and never uploads your address book. Fanyello shows no ads and does not track you across other apps.
Fanyello for iPhone and iPad is almost here. When it arrives, anyone 13 or older can create an account right in the app, and Help & Support inside the app reaches us directly.
