About BIRLN: Places People Are Going
See which places near you are busy right now, then go. Birln shows you what is actually happening around you, and venues put real rewards behind showing up. PLACES Restaurants, bars, coffee shops, bakeries, breweries, gyms, hotels and parks near you, with photos taken by people who are actually there. Search the way you talk, like "cozy coffee shop" or "sports bar with wings." Check how busy somewhere is before you leave the house, and stop asking "where should we go?" CHECK IN AND EARN Check in when you arrive and earn Birln Bux, the reward you spend inside Birln. Venues put free items and bonus rewards behind a visit, so showing up is worth something. Automatic check-ins are optional, work in the background, and you can turn them off any time. PEOPLE See who is heading out near you, follow the people whose taste you trust, and message your mutual connections so you actually end up in the same room. Give Chili Peppers to the people you like most. No swiping and no matching. POSTS Post a photo from wherever you are. The feed is made of real places instead of ads, so you find your next one from what people actually did this week. BUILT TO GET YOU OUT THE DOOR Most apps are built to keep you scrolling. Birln is built to end the scroll. It is the whole point of the name: Be In Real Life Now. PRIVACY You control what you share and when. Your profile can be private, blocking and reporting are built in, and we do not sell your data. FREE TO USE Birln is free. There are optional purchases, and you do not need them to find places, check in, or earn. WHERE IT WORKS Birln is live across the United States. Coverage runs deepest on restaurants, coffee shops and bars, and it gets better everywhere people check in.

What’s new
Version 1.0.116 · Updated November 8, 2026
Places: Filters now sit on one row. The activity chips and event date chips share the sort pill's row, and they step aside while you search so they no longer cover your results. Venue sheets lead with how busy a place is and its deals, and show the cover charge a venue has listed. Events: Invited guests can now say they are going, and the "Hosted at" button on an event opens the venue again. Event search now matches holiday names and months. Privacy: "Go invisible" now removes you from the venue you are at, and tells you if it could not. The Discover grid no longer shows a person's exact age. Going: Your Going plans no longer disappear after two days, and a Going post without a photo no longer shows an empty gray box. Map: Friend avatars on the map stay over the right place, and a pin whose photo stops loading falls back instead of staying blank. Fixes: A message no longer appears as two bubbles, one check-in notification no longer blocks the next, and My People's top and bottom bars now hide as you scroll.
