Someone to talk to right now

Want to talk to someone now, not in an hour? On Gryb you tap Search, we find the closest person looking for a conversation at the same moment, and the voice call starts as soon as you both accept

No waiting for replies

You send a message and wait, then see it was read with no answer. Gryb works differently: whoever comes up is already looking for someone to talk to right now, so there is no waiting and no guessing. Once you both accept the call, the conversation starts straight away

Voice only, no video

No need to fix your hair or find a good camera angle. Calls on Gryb are voice only, so you can talk while lying on the couch, sitting in a coffee shop or out on a walk. That makes the start easier, especially when you just want to talk without any effort

From tap to first word

1. Tap Search. We immediately start looking for the closest person searching right now
2. Look and decide. You see their name, photo and how far away they are, then accept or skip
3. Talk. When you both accept, the voice call starts right away
4. Pick it up later. If you get along, add them as a friend and call them again whenever you like

How long does search take? It depends on how many people are searching around you at the same time. Busy times like the afternoon and evening are usually faster, and at quiet times we widen the search to people farther away

You are in control

Not enjoying the conversation? End the call and search for someone else. If someone bothers you, block or report them in one tap, and we do not show your name to the person you reported. Gryb is for adults 18 and over, and you sign up without a phone number or email

An honest word

Gryb is a place for everyday conversation, and it is not a substitute for professional help. If you are going through a hard time, talk to someone you trust or to a professional who can help. If you want to talk through your day, see Vent by voice with someone nearby
