Your questions, answered

Pangea is a social travel app built for people who want to turn their trips into shared experiences. It helps you connect with other travelers going to the same places, see who’s nearby, and start conversations before you arrive. Whether you're heading out solo or with a group, Pangea gives you an easy way to make real connections while you travel.

Once you’ve added your trip to Pangea, you’ll be able to see other travelers whose plans overlap with yours. You can view their profiles, join their trip, send a direct message, or chat in a shared trip group. Whether you’re planning a hike, looking for a coworking buddy, or just want to grab a coffee with someone in the same city, Pangea helps you make it happen naturally.

Yes — Pangea was designed with safety in mind. Every account must be verified with a phone number, and you’re in full control of who can see your trips and contact you. You can also block or report users at any time. We always recommend arranging to meet others in public places and using good judgment when making plans.

Pangea lets you explore places recommended by people you actually know — like friends and travel connections you’ve made through the app. You'll also see suggestions from experienced users and our in-house team of travelers who’ve curated options based on real-world experience. It’s a more personal way to discover what’s worth your time in each city.

Start by adding your travel dates to Pangea. You’ll instantly see who else is going to be there at the same time, and you can join their trips or message them directly. Many nomads use Pangea to find coworking buddies, group adventures, or low-key meetups — it’s a simple way to find your people, without relying on random Facebook groups or paid communities.

Unlike dating apps or accommodation platforms, Pangea focuses on building real travel friendships. Tinder is built for dating. Couchsurfing centers around finding a place to stay. Pangea is about connecting with people who are on the same path—literally. You can share travel dates, join group trips, and message others directly—all for free, with no paywall.

Absolutely. Pangea is perfect for solo travelers who want to connect with others. You can search for people heading to the same destination, join their trip, and start chatting in the group thread. From there, you can arrange your own plans together—whether it’s exploring the city, splitting a ride, or grabbing lunch. It’s group travel, made flexible.

There are a few apps out there—like Backpackr and Couchsurfing—but most are either limited or built for other purposes. Pangea is one of the only free apps focused specifically on connecting travelers based on shared routes, upcoming trips, and real-time availability. You can see who’s going where, connect instantly, and make plans—all in one place.

Yes. Pangea is 100% free to use—no hidden costs, no locked features. You can access every part of the app, from joining trips and chatting with others to viewing your social travel map and building a network of global friends. We believe that meaningful travel connections should be accessible to everyone, not just those willing to pay.

Yes, you can download Pangea from the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. The app works seamlessly across both platforms, so whether you’re on iPhone or Android, you’ll have full access to all features—no limitations.

While Pangea doesn’t yet support public event hosting, you can still see who else will be in your destination and connect with them directly. Once you join a trip, you’ll have access to the group chat where you can coordinate plans and arrange to meet. It’s ideal for organizing casual meetups or linking up with new friends ahead of your arrival.
