Venue Compass

Venue Compass is a simple, discreet directory of private venues — now with optional anonymous check-ins and private chat.

How it works
• Type a postcode or place (e.g. “SW1A 1AA” or “Leeds”).
• Choose a distance in miles.
• See nearby venues on a clean list or map.
• Tap a venue to check in: “I’m here” or “Going.”
• Select “Here solo” or “Open to chat.”
• If others are checked in and open to chat, start a private, anonymous conversation.
• Chats use random usernames and expire at midnight.

Features
• Fast postcode & place search (UK).
• Miles-based radius slider.
• List ↔ Map toggle, distance badges.
• “Use my location” (with permission).
• Report a venue (wrong/closed/duplicate).
• Optional email updates (consent-based).
• New: Anonymous check-ins & midnight-expiring chats.

Privacy
• No accounts or login required.
• No names, ages or phone numbers collected.
• We don’t track your location—your device searches locally, then we forget it.
• If you join email updates, we only store your email for news you’ve asked for.

Important
• 18+ only.
• We don’t host explicit content or provide matchmaking.
• Always check the venue’s website before travelling (hours & policies can change).
• If something looks out of date, use “Report a venue” and we’ll fix it.
