your friends, without the noise
The idea
A social app that ends.
Most social apps are built to keep you scrolling. Yenz is built to let you stop. The feed only shows you posts from the friends you've added — usually a few dozen people — in the order they were posted. When you've seen everything new, it says so, and the scroll ends.
There are no public like counts, no follower numbers, and no algorithm guessing what you want. Hearts are private. Comments read like replies to a text. Stories are invitations to things — brunch Sunday, movie night Thursday — not performances.
It takes about three minutes to catch up most days. Then you close the app.
What's missing
Four things Yenz doesn't have, on purpose.
No
Public like counts
Only the author of a post sees who hearted it. Nobody else sees a number.
No
Follower counts
There's no follower number on your profile. You're in circles you chose.
No
An algorithm
Posts appear in the order they were made. No ranking, no 'for you', no surprises.
No
Streaks or badges
No streak to maintain, no daily reminder to post. Post when you have something.
Real moments
The kind of photos friends actually send each other.
Not a grid of influencers. A Sunday morning coffee, a beach walk, a kitchen full of friends after dinner.
You pick the feed
Your feed is exactly who you chose to follow.
Real friends, the creators you love, the photographer who posts one great shot a week — whoever you add. No algorithm pushing strangers at you, no 'for you' surprises. Want it even tighter? Post to a circle — close friends, family, book club — and only they see it.
Private hearts
Reactions the author sees — and nobody else.
If somebody hearts your post, you see it. If they don't, you don't know. There's no count anywhere, on anyone's post — yours or the people you follow. It turns out you don't need a public number to know your post landed.
A Plans tab
A quiet place to actually get together.
Posts are for sharing what your day looked like. Plans are for making one happen. A separate tab holds the brunch Sunday, the movie Thursday, the hike next weekend — with a time, a place, and RSVPs. Not a calendar app. Just enough to turn a 'we should' into a 'we did'.
If this sounds like the app
you wish you already had —
Yenz is in private beta. We're letting in a few friend groups at a time. Send a note and we'll get back to you.
