A map for queer life

manderlust helps you find the places that welcome you and see who’s around.

What it’s for

Bars, cafés, saunas, bookshops, clubs and the quieter spots in between, on one map. Open Explore to browse the places near you, no account needed.

With an account you get a profile with your photos, and, once you’ve confirmed you’re 18 or over, you can see other members on the map and choose whether they can see you.

Your account

You can sign up with your email address, a passkey, Google or Apple. When you sign in with Google or Apple we receive your name and email address, and use them only to create and sign you in to your manderlust account. Read the Privacy policy for everything we collect and why, and the Terms of use for the rules of the service.

How we keep it safe

Your location is never shown exactly: your pin is a random point near you, as far away as the location blur you choose, and you can take yourself off the map in Privacy at any time. Profiles are only visible to signed-in members who have passed the 18+ check, and sexually explicit images stay hidden unless you are verified and choose to see them.

Meeting someone new? Pick a friend for a check-back, and they’re told if you don’t say you’re fine in time. You can block someone you only have a photo of. And when we hide or remove something of yours, you’re told why and can ask for a second look, which someone other than whoever decided takes. Second looks last month: 0 asked, 0 changed.
