"Met my best friend at a Boredom meetup. No app has ever done that for me."

Break the ice in-app before you meet. Plan the meet-up, show up, and build connections that go beyond the screen.
Stories from the first wave of Boredom users across Lagos, Abuja, Enugu and beyond.
"Met my best friend at a Boredom meetup. No app has ever done that for me."
"I’d been in Lekki for two years and barely knew anyone outside work. One Friday on Boredom and I’d already booked a Saturday brunch with three people who get me. Wild."
"Finally an app that doesn’t make me swipe forever. I picked a mood, picked a spot, and met two people who actually showed up. The verified-venue thing changes everything."
"Listed my lounge on Boredom and got 40 bookings the first month — all from people genuinely looking for somewhere to go. Way better than ads."
"The mood-based matching is genius. Felt seen."
"What I love is that the venues are vetted. I never have to wonder if a place is safe or sketchy — it’s already been checked."
"Boredom changed my Lagos weekends. I actually have plans now."
Your space is ready. The people looking for somewhere exactly like yours just haven't found you yet. Boredom changes that.
Sign up in minutes and tell us about your venue — what you offer, your vibe, your capacity. This is your storefront on Boredom.
Boredom users aren't browsing aimlessly. They're actively looking for somewhere to go. Your verified venue gets placed in front of them at exactly the right moment.
Nigeria is one of the most socially vibrant countries in the world — and yet it's never been harder to make genuine connections in its cities. Busy schedules, unfamiliar neighbourhoods, and a sea of apps built for scrolling rather than living have made real social life harder to find.
Boredom was built to solve that. Not with algorithms designed to keep you hooked, but with tools designed to get you off your phone and into a room with people worth knowing.
Millions of Nigerians live within kilometres of venues and communities that would change their social lives — and never find them. Boredom exists to close that gap. One verified venue, one genuine connection, one real meet-up at a time.
Have Questions? We've Got You Covered.
Yes. Safety is built into Boredom from day one. We verify venues before listing them, protect user data, and include safety features such as privacy controls, optional location sharing, and emergency contact tools. You're always in control of what you share and who you meet.
Yes. You can choose how much information you share. Boredom allows limited-profile use, and you can gradually reveal more details as you feel comfortable. Your identity is never shared without your consent.
Matches are based on shared interests, availability, location preferences, and activity type. Boredom focuses on meaningful, real-world connections rather than endless swiping, helping you meet people who actually want to do the same things you do.
Businesses can sign up directly on the Boredom website by creating a business profile. Once submitted, we review and verify your venue before it goes live. Early vendors get access to free listings and early-access features.
A verified venue has been reviewed by the Boredom team. This includes business registration checks, location verification, and basic quality and safety standards. Verified venues display a badge so users can confidently plan meetups there.
You can report users or venues directly in the app or via the venue page. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team, and appropriate action is taken quickly to maintain a safe community.
Yes — completely free to download and use. You can create a profile, browse venues, and connect with people at no cost. A premium tier with extra features is coming later, but the core Boredom experience will always be free.
Restaurants and dining spots are our primary focus right now, but any venue that brings people together is welcome to apply — lounges, activity centres, rooftop bars, and social spaces. If your business hosts people, Boredom has a place for you.
