Timeleft: Make New Friends IRL is an events app by Timeleft that organizes small-group real-world meetups so adults can build friendships without profile swiping. The problem it addresses is the difficulty of meeting new people after the structured social settings of school or work disappear, and it does so by replacing browsing and messaging with a matching process: you take a quiz, book a format and neighborhood, and only on the day of the event learn your venue and a preview of the people you will meet. Groups are assembled from personality, shared interests and age, and the app reports a community of more than 3 million users across 160 or more cities in 48 countries. The catalog entry shows version 6.21.0, released 2026-10-12, a 4.24 rating from 11,650 ratings, 1,000,000 installs, no ads, in-app purchases, a Teen content rating, and Android 7.0 as the minimum supported system.
Key features
- Quiz-based matching by personality, shared interests and age rather than photos or bios, with tables of 4-6 people.
- Multiple recurring formats: Wednesday dinners, Tuesday 7pm women-only dinners, Saturday afternoon coffee, low-cost drinks, and weekly group runs followed by coffee.
- Last Drinks at a surprise bar after dinner in select cities.
- Venue and attendee preview revealed on the day of the event, so plans stay uncomplicated.
- Repeat and one-tap rebooking to invite a past connection to your next event or keep a weekly slot.
- Connect to stay in touch with people you clicked with, plus the option to bring a +1.
- In-app icebreakers at the table, connection profiles to remember who you met, and block and report tools.
- Curated restaurants that accommodate every dietary type.

Version history
| Version | Size | Requires Android | Updated |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.25.0 | — | 7.0 | Nov 9, 2026 |
| 6.21.0 | — | 7.0 | Oct 12, 2026 |
This app suits adults who want to meet new people face to face and are comfortable being matched into a small group rather than choosing companions themselves. It fits people new to a city, those whose social circle has narrowed, and anyone who prefers a scheduled, low-effort format such as a Wednesday dinner or a Saturday coffee over messaging strangers. Because matching uses personality, interests and age, it also suits users who dislike photo-driven dating-style apps and want something organized and recurring.
Book a format you can realistically repeat, since the app is built around showing up again rather than a single event. Review the permission list before installing and grant only what you are comfortable with, and check whether your city supports the specific format you want, as women-only dinners, Last Drinks and other options vary by location.

Frequently asked questions
How does matching work if I don't want to swipe through profiles?
Timeleft matches you based on a quiz covering personality, shared interests, and age rather than selfies or bios. Groups are curated into tables of 4-6 people, and the venue and a preview of your tablemates are revealed on the day of the event.
What event formats are available besides the Wednesday dinner?
Besides the regular Wednesday Dinners, Timeleft offers Women-Only Dinners every Tuesday at 7pm, Saturday afternoon Coffee meetups, low-cost Drinks, and weekly group Runs followed by coffee. In select cities, there is also Last Drinks at a surprise bar after dinner.
Can I rebook with someone I met, or bring a friend to a future event?
Yes. The Repeat feature lets you invite a connection to your next event, and one-tap rebooking makes it easy to book weekly. There is also a +1 option so you can bring someone along, and the Connect feature helps you stay in touch with people you clicked with.
What safety and moderation tools are included in the app?
Timeleft includes connection profiles to help you remember people you met, along with block and report tools designed to keep the experience respectful. The app also references a Child Safety Standards Policy in its support documentation.
What permissions does the app request, and is it free to use?
The app requests access to Calendar, Location, Photos/Media/Files, Storage, Camera, and Wi-Fi connection information. It is free to download with in-app purchases, contains no ads, and is rated Teen. The current version is 6.21.0, requires Android 7.0 or higher, and was released on December 8, 2023.
Timeleft replaces swiping with scheduled small-group meetups and a matching process based on personality and interests. If you want a structured way to meet people nearby and can commit to showing up, the app is worth trying; if you need every feature free or dislike sharing location and calendar access, weigh those trade-offs first.
