Social media that puts safety first, without the surveillance.

From 10 December, under-16s can't use adult social apps - and for good reason.

Traditional platforms expose kids to addictive feeds, strangers, and unmoderated private messages. Huddle gives them what they actually need: a safe, private way to stay in touch with real friends only.
