Everything your community needs

Everything a group needs to talk, in one private place.

🏘️

Hubs & channels

Text, voice, announcement and stage channels, grouped into categories. Invite people with a code, a link or a QR — or list your hub publicly so it can be discovered.

📞

Voice & video

Group voice and video calls with screen sharing and push-to-talk. Stage channels give you speakers and an audience, with raise-to-speak.

💬

Messaging that keeps up

Threads, replies, reactions, @mentions, editing, pinning and forwarding. Read receipts, typing indicators and link previews come as standard.

🎬

Watch & play together

Watch YouTube in sync on a call, fire off soundboard clips, run polls, and share GIFs, stickers and custom emoji.

🤝

DMs & friends

One-to-one and group DMs, friend codes, and live presence. Voice messages and file sharing when typing isn't enough.

✨

Catch up in seconds

Ask AI to summarise everything you missed in a busy channel. Saved messages and a mentions inbox keep the important things findable.

🗓️

Scheduled messages

Write a message now and have it send itself later.

👑

Roles you control

Custom roles with per-permission toggles — manage channels, kick members, moderate messages — plus an XP leaderboard for the regulars.

🎨

Make it yours

Avatar decorations, profile colours, custom emoji and stickers, and a light or dark theme that follows your device.

🔎

Find anything

Search across every channel and conversation, jump to pinned messages, and browse shared media without scrolling for ever.

🔔

Notifications that behave

Per-hub and per-channel controls, unread badges, and push that reaches your phone, browser and desktop — even with the app closed.

💻

On every screen

iPhone, iPad, Android, the web, and native Windows and Mac apps. Your conversations stay in sync across all of them.

Who it’s for

Anyone who wants a private, moderated place for their people to talk.

🔒

Private by default

Groups are invite-only. Nobody wanders in, and nobody has to hand out a phone number to take part.

🛡

Moderated automatically

Messages and images are screened before they reach anyone else, and links are scanned. Anyone can report or block from any message.

💬

Everything in one place

Channels, direct messages, voice and video calls and screen sharing — instead of four separate group texts.

👪

Visible to the right adults

A parent or guardian can link to a younger member’s account and see a summary of their activity, not the contents of it.

Safety isn't an afterthought

We built moderation into Yapply from day one, so communities stay welcoming.

  • ✓ Built on Christian values — a community that looks out for each other
  • ✓ AI-powered text & image moderation on every message

  • ✓ Report & block, with moderator tools and an audit log
  • ✓ Auto-moderation that mutes repeat offenders automatically
  • ✓ Link scanning to guard against scams and bad actors
  • ✓ Age-aware by design — adults can't cold-message minors

  • ✓ Quiet crisis support when someone sounds like they're struggling
  • ✓ A Code of Conduct everyone agrees to, and an appeals process if you're sanctioned
