Loopt Mix: More Features, More Fun, New App

Loopt Mix—the service that introduces you to the people nearby that you wish you knew—is growing up! Starting today, Loopt Mix is available for the iPhone or iPod touch as its own application in the Apple App Store.

We’ve decided to make Loopt Mix a stand-alone application so that we can pack it with the features you’ve been asking us for, such as real-time, in-app chat, the ability to upload multiple photos, and much more.

Since launching Loopt Mix last year, we’ve received an overwhelmingly positive response from the Loopt community: like Brad, who found a surfing buddy on Loopt Mix, or Topher, who was reunited with a long-lost friend on Loopt Mix. Loopt Mix is a simple and fun way to connect with others nearby in the real world who share your interests. It’s ideal for those who are looking for new friends to go to events with, getting to know someone over coffee, or new to town—almost anything you can imagine.

Feature highlights include:

   

- Free messaging with people around the country on Loopt Mix!
- Browse profiles of interesting people near you.
- Real-time, in-app chat with push notifications.
- Post multiple photos and status updates to introduce yourself.
- Use likes / tags and search filters to connect in the real world.

Try it out for yourself. Go to the App Store on your iPhone or iPod touch and search “Loopt Mix.” It’s free – just create a profile to start meeting the people you wish you knew. You can click here to download it now too.

Like previous versions of Loopt Mix, we don't show you the exact location of other members of the Loopt community, just approximately how close they are. You're always in full control—you can easily change your privacy settings.

Cool app...few things though:

1) I put in the wrong birth year and when I clicked submit it said I couldn't use the app, closed it immediately, and wouldn't let me relaunch it (automatically closed again). Had to reinstall the app.

2) Can't make return lines in profile description (you can do this in Loopt).

3) It'd be cool if it pulled in my existing profile information from Loopt...it does not.

Sweet app, though. Hopefully some of the existing Loopt users will add in Mixt!

I would like it if you could turn off when you are online and how far away you are. I already got some creepy people messaging me asking why I don't reply...

Wish it was all still one app

Still US only?

[Ken]

BlackBerry version?! Come on!

[Mark R.]

why is this only supported on the iPhone? There are tons of people who dont own one of those pieces of crap, but would like to use Loopt Mix on a BlackBerry, Palm or standard phone too.
