What is Popchat?

Clubs for the things you're into and the places you live, plus pops: small games, tools and pages anyone can make by describing them. Join clubs, chat, plan events, and make things together.

How do I start a poll?

In a club's chat, tap the poll button next to the message box (or + → Poll, or Start a poll in the club's ⋯ menu). Write the question and two or more choices, pick Show who voted or Anonymous, and post it. Everyone sees the bars fill in live: tap a choice to vote, or tap it again to take the vote back. A Board post can carry a poll too (the Poll button when you write it). One-to-one messages don't have polls.

How do events and RSVPs work?

Tap + next to the message box → Event, or Plan an event from the club's ⋯ menu or its Events tab. Give it a day, a time and a place. Everyone can say Going or Maybe with one tap, and the event shows how many are going and who. Going or Maybe reminds you an hour before. The club's host can add events and put you down for one when you ask it.

What's "Coming? 👍"?

A quick headcount without making an event: open a message's menu and tap Ask who's coming. A Coming? 👍 button shows under that message, and the count with names updates live as people tap it.

How do I get people into my club?

Invite people (in the club's ⋯ menu or the Invite button) makes a link you send from your own phone or mail. Owners and admins also have Add people: pick people you know, search by name or @handle, or Add by phone, which texts a one-time invite link that works for a week. Print a poster from Club settings: it has the club's icon, its name and a big QR code; people scan it, type their name and phone number, and they're in.
