One free app for your street β a place to give, ask, and find local help close to home.
Or open it in your browser
One free app, two sides to it. Both running off the same map of where you are β sorted by how close help is, right now.
No money, no ads, no algorithm. Just local.
Post it. Nearby neighbours will see it first.
Ask β someone a few doors down probably has it.
Informal lending and the odd swap happen too β that's between neighbours.
Hundreds of trusted local services already on the map β and growing. No Googling, no phone calls.
No listing fees, no feed algorithm, no pressure. Just post, chat, drop off or pick up.
Snap a photo, tag it GIVE or NEED, and Kindred drops it on the map for neighbours within walking distance. You can even note "open to swap forβ¦" if you're keen.
Someone nearby pings you in-app. Sort out a time, a pickup spot, or a community meetup point. All the chat happens inside Kindred.
Leave it on the porch for pickup, meet at a shared spot, or have a yarn while you hand it across β whatever suits you both. Mark it complete and you both earn Kindness Points.
Everything Kindred does, rooted in keeping your neighbourhood feed honest and your handovers safe.
Built-in directory of every free NZ helpline. Tap to call free from anywhere in Aotearoa, or tap "More info" to visit the organisation's website.
You're not alone. Open Profile, tap Free Support Lines β they're all right there.
Earn KP for listing, rating, verifying, and completing exchanges. Climb from Newcomer all the way to Kindred Spirit.
See who's most generous in your patch β weekly, monthly, or all-time.
Optional, earns extra KP, and helps build trust in your suburb.
Arrange handover without handing over your phone number.
Browse around your address or wherever you actually are. Address autocomplete makes setup quick.
Meet at shared local spots β parks, libraries, marae β surfaced in-app as safer handover locations. Share a live-location tracker link with a friend or whΔnau while you go; it auto-expires after 2 hours.
Old posts auto-expire so the feed stays fresh and honest. Nothing lingering from six months ago pretending to still be available.
Kindred Supporter is an optional paid tier for folks who want to go a bit further β extra perks for you, and a quiet thank-you for backing the app.
Prices GST-inclusive. Cancel anytime from Google Play, the App Store, or Stripe (web) β it keeps working until the end of the billing period. Kindred stays fully free without Supporter.
A few dollars a month doesn't feel like much on its own β but stacked across a few hundred neighbours, it keeps Kindred running and growing, and helps fund the other community-focused projects we're building to help more Kiwis.
You're not buying features. You're helping us build more kindness into the world β and that adds up to something real.
Open it in your browser right now β no install needed. Or grab the Android beta. iOS is next.
