Resonya shows you the music playing around you — right here, right now. No profiles, no followers, no feed. Just the sound of the people nearby.
Works with Spotify and Apple Music
Every feed you own is a museum — highlights, throwbacks, other people's yesterdays. The now is the one place no platform ever took you: this street, this hour, the song in the ears of the stranger beside you. Tuning into the now means turning your attention from what happened somewhere else to what's playing right here — and discovering that the present has a soundtrack.
Algorithms serve everyone the same charts, everywhere, placelessly. Yet the best recommendation engine ever built is still the taste of the people physically around you — and it's completely inaudible. Headphones made every city a thousand private concerts with no windows between them.
Meeting anyone online now means surrendering yourself first: a real name, photos, a follower count, a history that never expires. The price of presence became a permanent record.
Resonya answers both with one idea: presence instead of profiles. Share what you're playing in the place you're actually in, to the people who are actually there — and remain exactly as anonymous as a stranger in the same room.
Someone on your tram is lost in a song. Someone in the café is playing the album you love. Resonya makes that invisible layer audible: broadcast what you're listening to, and discover who's tuned in around you — as nearby presences, not profiles.
Two seats away, someone is deep in the artist you've had on repeat all week. You'd never know — until Resonya shows a presence nearby, live, playing your kind of morning. Some days you just smile at it. Some days you send a wave.
New city, familiar loneliness. But the café's quiet is deceptive: three people nearby are tuned into sounds you love. A wave costs nothing and reveals nothing — easier than a hello, safer than a profile, and sometimes the start of a real one.
Every blanket is its own little concert. Open Resonya and the park becomes a map of moods — who's broadcasting, what the air would sound like if headphones didn't exist. Find your people by sound, not by profile.
Social media, with privacy by design.
Most social apps are built to know you. Resonya is built to let you be present without being known. Privacy isn't a settings page here — it's the architecture.
On Resonya you don't build a profile — you open a session. It begins when you show up, lives while you're present, and dissolves when you leave. No archive of who you were last Tuesday, no follower count keeping score, no past to curate.
We built it this way on purpose, because permanence changes people: when everything is recorded, everyone performs. When nothing is kept, you can simply be there. And when a moment can't be saved, scrolled back, or bookmarked for later, it does something feeds forgot how to do — it pushes you toward the person, not the screen. Spot someone whose sound matches yours, and the only way to keep that moment is the oldest way there is: wave, say hi, meet. The app won't remember it for you. That's not a limitation. That's the invitation.
No account, no real name, no phone number. You are a nickname and a vibe — an identity you can reset at any moment.
One switch controls your visibility. Turn it off and your presence stops transmitting and is removed from the network — not hidden, gone.
Nearby presence is a moment, not a record. It expires on its own — Resonya is about who is here now, not who was ever here.
Your location is used to find what's playing near you — and shared only while you choose to be discoverable.
When you wave at a nearby listener and chat, the messages travel encrypted.
Resonya's servers run in the European Union, under European data-protection law.
Choose a nickname and the moods you're into. That's the whole sign-up — there is nothing else to fill in.
Listen on Spotify or Apple Music as usual, and broadcast your track when you feel like sharing it.
See the music around you, send a wave, start a conversation — or just listen to the city listening.
The first builds are in testing now, starting in Vienna. Resonya is coming to you soon — on iOS and Android.
