About Groups

You've just found the best, easiest app for staying in touch with people. Try it for yourself — it's free!
Downloaded by millions in over 100 countries, Groups turns your phone's native contacts into a private social network. Organize your groups, share with friends and family, and stay connected — without feeding Big Tech your data.

ORGANIZE YOUR CONTACTS:
◆ Group by how you know them — friends, family, work, hobbies
◆ See who you met recently and interaction history
◆ Smart search finds anyone instantly
◆ Clean up duplicates and merge contacts

STAY IN TOUCH:
◆ Set reminders to reach out to people who matter
◆ Send personalized messages to your whole circle at once
◆ Message templates for birthdays, holidays, events
◆ Track who you haven't spoken to in a while

SHARE TOGETHER:
◆ Exchange contact info instantly with QR codes
◆ Take Group Photos with fun AI effects
◆ Create events and invite people (they join via browser — no app needed)
◆ Share links, photos, and content from any app
◆ Custom icons for each group

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS:
◆ Unlike Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn, your contacts never leave your phone.
◆ Messages go directly through SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, or Email — recipients don't need Groups to receive them.
◆ No algorithms deciding who sees your posts. No ads. No data mining. No selling your information.
◆ Just a better way to stay connected with the people you actually care about. Through channels you already use.

WORKS WITH EVERYTHING:
◆ Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, and more.
◆ Fully compatible with iOS features like Do Not Disturb, Voice Messages, and Shortcuts. Now available on iPad.

OWN YOUR COMMUNITY
Every contact is real social capital. Whether you're organizing a book club, coordinating family events, or building a community around shared interests — Groups helps you bring people together on your terms.

Free to download. Start growing your private social network today.
