01Home
- A fresh feed every time. Big, photo-first cards for Offerings near you, each showing the title, the host's username and age, the area and the starting price.
- People you may like. A sideways row of hosts nearby — tap a photo to open their profile.
- Highlighted profiles. Members who chose a Sponsored listing appear in a clearly labelled "Sponsored" card.
- Quick categories. Nearby plus every category — Travel, Movie, Dining, Shopping and Others — one tap away.
- Save favourites. Tap the heart on any Offering to keep it for later.
- Browse freely as a guest — you only need an account to create Offerings, send requests, chat and use Credits.
02Nearby
A map-like view with you in the centre and Offerings around you — closer ones near the middle, farther ones further out. Tap any Offering to see its title, price and area, then open it. Choose how far to look with the distance slider, from 1 to 100 km.
03Search and filters
- One search box — "What are you looking for?" — across titles, keywords, areas and descriptions.
- Nearby, Popular and Recent views, plus your recent searches for quick repeats.
- Filters for category, distance, starting price and the days you're free, shown as chips you can remove one by one, or reset all at once.
- No location? Pick an area by name and everything still works.
04Offer what you're good at
- Create an Offering with a title, description, your experience, a cover photo, the area you serve and the days you're available.
- Choose how you charge — per hour, per session, per activity or custom — and a starting price in rupees.
- Admin approval comes first. Every new Offering is checked and approved by the Allyo admin team before it appears in the app. Until then it shows as *Pending* in My Offerings and no one else can see it. Edit a live Offering and it goes back to *Pending* — hidden until it's approved again. If it's rejected you'll see the admin's note, can fix it and send it again.
- Your first 2 Offerings are free. Each additional one uses 10 Credits.
- See all your Offerings and their status in My Offerings, and the requests each one has received.
05Booking requests
- Tap Request to book on an Offering and confirm. The owner is notified.
- The owner accepts or declines, with an optional note when declining.
- Track everything in Requests — Pending, Accepted and Declined — for requests you've sent and received.
06Chat
Once a booking request is accepted, both Members can chat inside Allyo:
- Messages arrive instantly, with sent, delivered and read ticks.
- Reply to a specific message by swiping it.
- Delete a message for yourself, or for everyone within 48 hours of sending it.
- See when the other Member is online or was last seen, and when they're typing.
- Messages you write while offline are sent as soon as you're back.
- All your chats in one place: Settings → Chats, or the chat icon on Home.
07Notifications
Get notified when you receive a new booking request, when your request is accepted or declined, when an Offering is reviewed, and when you get a new chat message. While the app is open, these appear as a small banner at the top instead. Notifications are optional — turn them off any time in your phone's settings.
08Credits
Credits are Allyo's in-app currency for extra features. They are not money: they can't be withdrawn, transferred to another Member or exchanged for cash.

| An Offering beyond your 2 free ones | 10 |

Every Credit movement appears in your Credit history. Buying Credit packs isn't available yet.

10Safety and control

- Login Devices in Settings lists every phone signed in to your account.
