New app now available free on iPhone, Android, and the web offers families and close friends a private place to share life with no ads, no tracking, no algorithm.
Las Vegas, NV September 02, 2026 –(PR.com)– Friendlinq, a new social network designed for family and real friends instead of strangers and advertisers, is now available to everyone at no cost on the Apple App Store, Google Play, and the web at https://friendlinq.com.
Friendlinq was built on a simple idea: social media should feel like a kitchen table, not a shopping mall. There are no ads, no data tracking, no outrage bait, and no infinite scroll. Your feed has two views. Tap “Friends” and you see only your friends and family, in the order they posted. Tap “Community” and you see everyone on Friendlinq. Either way, no algorithm decides what you see, and no stranger is ever pushed into your feed, nor are you in their feed.
“Most people did not quit social media because they stopped caring about their family. They quit because the platforms stopped being about their family and friends,” said Robert Smith, founder of Friendlinq and President of Spire Group Inc. “Friendlinq gives that back. It is the photos, the messages, the video calls, and the group plans you actually want, with none of the noise you never asked for.”
Everything you need to stay connected, without the things you don’t
Friendlinq includes the features people actually use every day:
• Messaging. Private conversations with friends and family, including text, photos, and voice.
• Photo sharing. Upload photos and build albums to share memories with the people who matter.
• Groups. Create private groups for your family, your neighborhood, your team, or your interests. No strangers, no noise.
• Video calls. One-on-one or group calls that work on any device.
• Events. Plan family gatherings, birthdays, and local activities with the people you know.
• Your profile. Share who you are with your friends and family, not with the entire world.
Free today, free forever, and your data is never sold
Friendlinq is free to join and free to use. The company has made three public commitments to every member:
1. Always free. There is no premium tier hiding the good features.
2. Never sold. Member data is not sold, rented, or shared with advertisers.
3. No algorithm. The feed is chronological and shows only the people you have chosen.
Set up your whole family in about five minutes
Most Friendlinq accounts start with one person who invites their family. Mom, dad, siblings, kids, grandparents and closest friends can all be connected in a few minutes. The app was designed so that a grandparent who has never used social media and a teenager who uses it all day can both feel at home. No technical skill is needed.
