What is Nostalgia?
Nostalgia is a social app that reconnects you with the people who once meant the most.Each day, you’re matched with a friend and you both share a moment from your past — a memory that brought you together.It’s a simple way to revive old friendships, celebrate shared experiences, and feel closer again.
How does it work?
Nostalgia reconnects you with the friends who once meant the most.
Every day, the app matches you with one friend and invites you both to share a moment from your shared past. You upload a memory, your friend does the same, and once you both approve, the moment is revealed and added to your shared feed. A private chat opens automatically so you can talk about the memory and revive the connection. Each moment earns “Nostalgia Points” based on how old the memory is, helping you build milestones and a personal timeline on your profile. Over time, Nostalgia becomes a living archive of your most meaningful friendships — rebuilt one shared moment at a time.
Main Functions
Daily Match 🙏
Once a day, Nostalgia matches you with one friend — chosen through AI or a simple random algorithm.
The idea: reconnect with people you care about but rarely reach out to.

Share a Moment 📸
You and your friend each upload a photo, screenshot, or memory from your shared past.
You only see their moment once you’ve shared yours — it’s a mutual reveal.
After sharing, a private chat opens automatically.
You can talk, laugh, reminisce — just like old times.

Your Friendship Archive 📔
Both of you approve the shared moments with one tap.
If you both agree, Nostalgia publishes the memory in your shared feed and stores it in your profile’s Memory Album.
Every released moment becomes part of a visual album.
Over time, you build a beautiful collection of memories — not with everyone, but with the people who truly matter.

No. Joining the waitlist is completely free.

Possibly. We’re exploring options like AI-assisted matching with friends you haven’t talked to in a long time. The exact implementation is still being tested.
