Description
Tired of following everyone you meet? enca is a low-pressure way to stay connected. When you hang out, show each other a QR code and you each get a card of the other person. That's it. No follows, no DMs, no feed to keep up with, no numbers swapped. Your cards become a collection of people you've actually met, and the count goes up every time you meet again. Pick a cover that feels like you and collect limited ones at events. Free on iOS and Android.
