The one-liner
Have We Met? is an iOS app that compares the location and time metadata in two people's photo libraries to reveal the moments their paths nearly crossed — before they ever met.
Boilerplate
Have We Met? turns two photo libraries into the story of a near-miss. By comparing only the where-and-when metadata that photos already carry, the app maps the days two people's lives ran parallel — the same festival two hours apart, the same street the same afternoon, the closest single moment their timelines touched. Photos never leave either phone unless their owner deliberately reveals them; matching runs on coordinates and timestamps alone, inside a private two-person session. Have We Met? is independently built and available on the App Store for iPhone.
Fast facts
- Platform: iPhone, iOS 16 or later
- Model: private two-person sessions, joined by invitation code
- Privacy: matching uses photo metadata only; images stay on-device until their owner reveals them, and reveals are revocable
- Moment types: Same Place, Same Time · Just Missed · Close Encounters · Same Place, Anytime · Ships in the Night · plus each pair's single Closest Moment
- A typical scan: about a minute, even for large libraries
The name to print
"Have We Met?" — capital H, capital W, capital M, question mark included on first mention. "Have We Met" without the question mark is fine in running text and headlines.
Brand
The mark is a heart formed by two converging paths and a map pin — use it on the dusk plum or on cream, unmodified, with clear space around it. Don't recolor it, add effects, or set it on busy imagery. Download the mark (PNG).
Palette
Type
Display: Playfair Display (the app's serif voice, with italic champagne accents). UI and stamps: Space Grotesk, letterspaced caps for the "HAVE WE MET" lockup with a gold "WE".

What we're happy to talk about
- How near-miss matching works — and what photo metadata can and can't tell you
- Designing a serious, consent-first app in a category that usually reaches for confetti
- The privacy architecture: metadata-only matching, on-device photos, revocable reveals
- Stories from pairs who discovered they'd orbited each other for years
