FAQ

What Lets is, how to install it on iPhone and Android, join the beta, and use Circles. You'll also find answers about privacy and contacting the team.

About Lets

What is Lets in plain words?

Lets is a mobile social app for friends and small communities. Share a moment, receive a response, and continue with the same people in messages or a Circle. The feed, Stories, profiles, and search support that path instead of making passive content viewing the whole product.

How is Lets different from a normal feed?

Lets has a familiar feed, but the product is organized around relationships rather than viewing alone. A post or Story should lead to a response, a conversation, and a return to the same people. In a Circle, that shared context — members, posts, chat, and useful materials — stays close.

Circles and Glints

What are Circles?

A Circle is a shared place for people who do something together. It keeps members, posts, chat, and useful material close, while a meetup can move from invitations and contributions to a shared result and a repeat.

Why is a normal group chat not enough?

A group chat is useful for quick conversation, but agreements and the result of a meetup soon move out of view. A Circle connects the conversation with members, meetups, each person's contribution, and a saved result. It is not meant to replace every chat; it is for people who regularly do something together.

What are Glints and why do they exist?

A Glint is a small acknowledgement beside a post or reply. It shows that someone noticed the contribution. Glints are not money, payment, a rank, or an entitlement.

How do questions in Circles work?

A Circle owner writes a question and adds answer options manually. A member selects one option, and one account keeps one choice. The result remains visible after the question closes, but it does not change rules, start an action, or become a commitment from the Lets team by itself.

Access

Can I use Lets now?

Yes. Lets is now in closed beta on iPhone and Android. We invite people in small groups, so a request does not mean automatic access or promise a specific invitation date.

How do I install Lets on iPhone?

Lets on iPhone is currently available by invitation through TestFlight, Apple's app for installing test versions. Request early access first. If you are invited, we will email you the installation instructions.

How do I install Lets on Android?

Invited participants install Lets through Google Play testing. This is a closed beta, so you need an invitation first. Request early access and, if you are invited, we will email you the installation instructions.

Is the beta free?

Yes, participation in the closed beta is free. We ask you to use the app and tell us what is unclear or not working.

I sent a request. What happens next?

We review requests manually and invite people in small groups. If you are invited, we will write to the email address in your request. There is no need to submit it again. A request does not guarantee access, and we cannot promise an invitation date.

Do I need to read project documents to use the beta?

No. Lets should make sense without any preparation. The About Lets page is for people who want more detail about Circles, questions for members, personal-space controls, and the boundaries of the first beta release.

Privacy and safety

Who can see my post and message me?

Lets settings let you choose who can see your profile and Stories and who can send you messages. You can block unwanted contact and later find it in the blocked list. These controls help create distance, but they do not replace emergency services.

Will messages be fully encrypted?

Protection currently differs across message types. In the compatible cloud mode, the Lets server side remains technically able to decrypt content, so we do not say that the service cannot access a conversation. A stronger architecture is approved as a direction, but public documents will change only after implementation, migration, and independent review.

What data does the website collect right now?

The site has no registration, newsletter, optional analytics, or advertising cookies. An early-access request includes your email and one answer about who you would like to try Lets with. It also includes the page language and address, submission time, consent status, IP address, and form-protection data. We use this information to review the request, contact you about an invitation, and protect the form.
