See What’s around you.

Wherever you go, Yokul shows you the spots closest to you, along with photos, videos, and conversations shared where you are. See what others experienced at the exact places you’re visiting- whether you’re sitting at a coffee shop, hiking a trail, or relaxing on the beach.

Discover the one beneath your feet!

Claim your spots on the map!

Found a place that hasn’t been claimed yet? Create a new spot and gain permanent recognition as its founder. You’ll receive notifications when others add their photos, memories and conversations about the spot you’ve founded- so you can watch your spot grow and connect with others who visit for years to come!

Every Spot can have only ONE Founder.

Be the first!

Put your past adventures on the Yokul Map!

Photos from your camera roll go on to the Yokul Map where they were taken. Share years of past trips’ memories and experiences – and bring those places back to life on Yokul! Others can discover the places you’ve been and ask questions about the spots they may want to visit themselves.

Show the world where you’ve been!

Connect with others through shared places and experiences.

Connect through the places you’ve been.

Every spot has its own community. Connect with the people who’ve visited the same places through each spot’s forum and stay connected as new memories and messages are added over time.

Every Spot becomes a community.

Connect with the people who were there!

Go Hyper-Local!

Use your local town square to see what’s happening right around you. Go as hyper-local as your dorm or street- or expand your range to your neighborhood, town, or city!

See what others are saying around you.

Go as local as you want!

Taking a Trip?

Change the location of the town square to connect with the locals before you arrive. Ask questions, get recommendations, and hear from the people who know your destination best!

Go local before you get there!

Connect with locals before you arrive.

Find Your People.

Search by location, age, and keywords to discover people who share your interests, hobbies and passions. Yokul makes finding the right people easier than ever.

Find the people you’re looking for.

Your search can be as specific as you are!

Coming Fall 2026

Your location

Built around where you are

Location is what makes Yokul local to you, but you stay in control of how you use it.

What we collect and how it is used is set out in full in our Privacy Policy.

How far it reaches
You choose how far your Town Square reaches.
Where it looks
You can change your location at any time to explore somewhere else.
What it is attached to
Spots are tied to places, so what you find is attached to the location rather than to a person’s movements.

Before you ask

Questions, answered

  • When does Yokul launch?

    Yokul launches in Fall 2026 on iPhone. You can join the beta today through TestFlight and start creating Spots before anyone else.

  • What exactly is a Spot?

    A Spot is a physical place with its own photos, videos, and forum. Stand somewhere, and Yokul shows you what people shared right there. Create a Spot nobody has documented and you become its permanent Founder.

  • How does Yokul use my location?

    Your location decides what content you see — that is the whole idea. You choose how far your Town Square reaches, and you can change your location entirely to explore somewhere else before you travel there.

  • Is there an Android version?

    Yokul launches on iPhone first. Android is under consideration — send us a message and we will let you know when there is news.

  • How do I join the beta?

    Tap “Download iPhone Beta” anywhere on this page. It opens TestFlight, Apple’s official beta service. You will need an iPhone and a free Apple account.
