About this app
Russian for "nearby", Рядом is a map-based social network from Korobeinikov Ilya Sergeevich that puts posts and events on a map of your surroundings. It's for finding what's going on close by, sharing what you've found and talking to people who are physically near you. The feed is geotargeted, so you see what's happening in your area and can post to people around you. Upcoming local events come with reminders. One account can run several profiles, such as a personal one and a business one. For businesses there's a free loyalty tool built on QR-code check-ins, suited to cafés, salons, workshops and local events. Private and personal chats round out the messaging. The app and its listing are in Russian.
Рядом: the full guide
What the app is
The name means nearby, and that is the whole idea. Рядом, from sole proprietor Korobeinikov Ilya Sergeevich, is a Russian-language social network drawn on a map: posts and events are pinned to where they happen, and the feed shows what is going on around where you are standing.
You can post to people in your area, get reminders for local events, and run several profiles on one account, personal and business side by side. Businesses get a free loyalty scheme based on QR-code check-ins, pitched at cafés, salons, workshops and events. Private and group chats complete the messaging. The app and its store listing are entirely in Russian.
How it works day to day
On a Saturday you open the map and see what has been posted within a few streets: a market, a concert, someone selling a bike. An event you tap gets a reminder set. You post a photo of the café you found and people nearby see it.
For a café owner the other side matters: a loyalty card that customers stamp by scanning a QR code at the counter, with no fee and no separate app for them to install. Business and personal profiles swap from the same login. Chats handle the follow-up, whether that is a question about the event or a message to a regular.
Why people look for it
Russian speakers who want a hyperlocal feed rather than a national one, and small-business owners who want a loyalty tool without paying for one. Both are niche needs, and the listing has no ratings at all, so very few people have found it yet. Outside Russian-speaking communities the language barrier makes it a non-starter.
Look and feel
Five screenshots, all presumably in Russian, will show the map with pinned posts, a feed, a profile switcher and the QR loyalty screen. Map-first social apps put the map on the home tab with a feed beneath or beside it. Expect a straightforward design from a solo developer rather than a polished brand identity.
