Getting started

How to sign up for AOA in a minute with Google, Apple or Telegram, fill in your profile, turn on Passkey sign-in and get into a venue room.

Signing up

AOA is a web app, so there is nothing to download. To get started:

  1. Tap your phone on the NFC tag at a venue or open a link from a friend
  2. Sign in with Google, Apple or Telegram
  3. Fill in some basic information about yourself

Signing up takes less than a minute. You don't need to come up with a password: AOA uses secure sign-in through the accounts you already have.

Setting up your profile

Once you've signed up, we recommend filling in your profile. It helps other people get to know you better:

  • Photos: add a few photos so people can recognize you at the venue
  • Name and age: the basics for meeting someone
  • Hobbies and interests: they help you find things to talk about
  • Goal: what you're looking for, whether it's friendship, conversation or romance

Passkeys: sign in without a password

AOA supports Passkeys (WebAuthn), the most modern way to sign in. It's biometric sign-in with Face ID, Touch ID or your fingerprint on your device. You can set up a Passkey in the Security section of your settings.

Your first visit to a venue

When you arrive at a venue connected to AOA:

  1. Find the AOA NFC tag on a table or near the entrance
  2. Tap your phone on it
  3. You'll land in the venue's digital room automatically
  4. Browse other guests' profiles and send a honk to anyone who catches your interest
