Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
Ever walk into a room and wonder if you have anything in common with anyone there? Sonar shows you how you are connected to the people around you by analyzing your Foursquare, Facebook, and Twitter networks.
Sonar helps you discover and connect with:
- Friends and friends of friends
- Twitter friends and followers
- Business contacts and colleagues
- Fellow alumni
- Likeminded singles
Sonar works everywhere, including:
- Conferences and meetups
- Concerts and events
- Bars and cafes
- Airports and parks
Sonar is perfect for:
- Networkers
- Entrepreneurs
- Freelancers
- Event Organizers
- Early Adopters
- Puppies
- Tech and Social Media Enthusiasts
- Anyone that loves “small world” moments
Sonar uses publicly available profile information to help you discover the connections you share with people nearby. Sonar lets you take your online identity offline and meet real people in real life.
NOTE:
- Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
- You need a Foursquare account to use Sonar at this time.
****Why Sonar?****
Have you ever wondered what the guy sitting across from you in the bar is thinking about, what he does for work, or what kind of music he listens to?
Have you ever wanted to tell the room that you are looking for an adventure tonight, need to find an iphone developer, or love the new Kanye album?
Have you ever paid big money to attend a conference only to stand by the peanuts, wondering who is there?
So have we. So has everyone. That’s why we built Sonar. Enjoy!

Customer Reviews
Mr.
I never knew something like this existed. I am able to see connections around me any time I wish without being interrupted. The messaging feature could be better executed by adding the twitter handle to the message automatically but all in all best execution for social discovery. Loved it.
Always running.
I don't want the app to always use the location service in the background.
Persistent GPS
I don't want the app constantly running GPS and keeping track of me. The only way to turn this off is to remove the app.
