Version 1.0 Out now on the App Store
The people behind the plugins, themes and WordCamps you already use. Post, message, check in at events and keep your streak alive from anywhere.
A look inside
01
Feed
Updates, questions and wins from the folks you follow, with photos, polls and threaded replies. No algorithm deciding what you see.
02
Nearby
A radar of WordPress folks near you, at a WordCamp or in your city, and a nudge when someone you follow turns up at the same event. Off until you switch it on, and never more precise than a neighbourhood.
03
Events
WordCamps and meetups near you, with RSVP, check-in on arrival, and private meet notes on the folks you talked to. The part everyone forgets by the flight home.
04
Leaderboard
A monthly race scored on what you ship and answer, with an impact score, streaks and badges that stay in sync with your profile on the website.
05
Discover
Folks, plugins, themes, businesses, jobs, deals, ideas, resources and speakers, each shown with the people behind them rather than as an anonymous listing.
Only in the app
Everything on wpfolks.org is in the app. These are the things a phone makes possible that a browser tab never will.
Replies, mentions, messages and event reminders, each one switchable on its own.
Sign in once with Apple, Google or a magic link, then unlock with biometrics.
Scan the QR code on wpfolks.org and you are signed in on that computer. No password on a borrowed keyboard.
A nudge when someone you follow is at the same WordCamp. Optional, and always approximate.
Check in on arrival and see who else has. Meet notes stay private to you.
The home screen and your last feed stay readable with no signal, and sync when you are back.
More screens

Three WordPress trivia questions a day, plus Higher or Lower on plugin installs. Monthly games board included.
WordCamp talks and tutorials, watchable without leaving the app.
Browse, filter and download CC0 photos straight to your camera roll.
Link WordPress.org and your plugins, themes and core credits appear automatically.
Save any post, plugin or photo. The same list on the website.

Your invite link, and the tree of everyone who joined through it.
Follows the system, or pick one. Same choice as the website.
Privacy
Posts are checked by automated moderation before they go live, and every post and message can be reported. The full detail is in the privacy policy and the terms.
FAQ
No. The same account works on wpfolks.org and in the app, and everything you do in one shows up in the other. Never signed up? It takes about thirty seconds in the app.
It is out now, on Google Play.
It runs on an iPad at iPhone size. A proper tablet layout is not in this version.
No. Location is only used by Nearby folks and event alerts, both optional, and the app asks before it touches it. Everything else works without it, and you can revoke it later without losing anything.
Yes. No ads, no in-app purchases, no paid tier and no trial that ends. WPFolks is run by the community, and the app is part of that rather than a product on top of it.
The support page is the fastest route, and reports that come through it reach a person rather than a queue.
Out now, free, on both stores.
