KRUNK- the new social media app for those who like to do activities

These days our lives are so dependant on technology. We use it to order groceries and take out, book our Ubers, look for outfit and make up ideas, we even use it to keep an eye on what our friends are doing without even having to reach out to them. While it is great for convenience, some apps, especially the social media ones have led to some people feeling more disconnected than ever. That is because of the reduced face to face time making people feeling isolated.

However there is a new app that is designed to get you OFF social media, while also helping you make like-minded friends who enjoy doing activities. After a long period of lockdowns, it may be just what we need to feel connected again and to help us make new friends.

KRUNK is changing the way people meet, interact, and connect by connected people by their common interests. It is not a dating app, but more of an adventure or friendship app. When you sign up you choose at least 5 activities that you are interested in, be it cycling, bushwalking, meditation, swimming at the beach, a HIIT workout and KRUNK will connect you with people who are interested in the same thing. Unlike with a dating app, they avoid the “hot or not” left and right swipe. Rather, you can scroll down, see everyone and choose who you want to connect with from there

If you are not too comfortable with meeting someone one on one, or if you prefer group activities, KRUNK has a groups function which is a place where someone with a particular interest can create a group or an event, and then others who are in the area and also like that activity can join in. This works really well for cyclings, trail runners, bush walkers and the like.

HOW TO USE KRUNK FOR YOUR BUSINESS

KRUNK is a great tool for business owners if your business is relevant to an activity or interest. You can sign up and mingle with people who have the same interest. You can also create groups and events which could be a good opportunity to get those people to provide feedback on your product or to sample your work in a friendly and low-key manner. You also have the ability to sell product via the app too. KRUNK is a good way to be seen by the niche that are interested in exactly what you do.

Get on and give it a go.
