A warm, caring community

The real challenge of expat life

You moved to the other side of the world. Your circle of friends didn't come with you.

Moving abroad as a family is the dream. But once you arrive, isolation sets in fast. Here's what most expat families go through in those first months.

The isolation of the early months

New country, new language, nothing familiar. Weekends feel long when you don't know a soul around you.

Kids with no friends

Your children left their friends behind. Finding playmates the same age, right in the neighborhood, often feels like an uphill battle.

The local tips you just can't find

Which English-speaking pediatrician? What activity for the little ones? The information that matters flows between families… if only you knew a few.

ExpatTribe is the village you've been missing.

A map of your neighborhood, the expat families around you, and a simple, friendly way to reach out. Like a warm-hearted neighbor introducing you to everyone the day you arrive.

What you can do

Everything to reconnect, quickly and with peace of mind

Not just another social network. A tool built for one thing: helping you rebuild a real community around your family.

Your neighborhood map

See the expat families settled near you at a glance. Your exact address is never shared, only an approximate area appears.

Family profiles

Kids' ages, languages spoken, shared interests: see at a glance the families you're likely to click with.

Like & match

Like a family? Give them a like. If it's mutual, it's a match, and the conversation can begin, no pressure.

Messaging

As soon as you match, the conversation opens up: a coffee, a playdate or a trip to the park comes together in a few messages.

The families' Guide

Questions from families, practical articles and good addresses in one place. Your question may already have an answer; if not, the AI assistant takes over.

Good addresses with verified reviews

The tradespeople and places families recommend. From three families, the Verified reviews badge: the most trusted places rise to the top.

One account per parent

Each parent has their own sign-in. Invite your partner with a code: you share the same family, the same conversations and the same subscription.

20 languages

The app speaks your language: English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Ukrainian and more, 20 in all. And when a family writes in another one, machine translation helps you understand them.

Protecting your kids

Birth dates stay private. First name and age are only visible to families you've matched with. You stay in control.

What families will say

Illustrative testimonials, the app is currently launching.

“I arrived in Valencia without knowing a soul, and within a week I'd found two families a five-minute walk away. Our kids became inseparable.”
👩‍👧 CamilleExpat mom in Valencia
“A match on Tuesday, a message straight after, a snack at the park on Saturday. Within three weeks we had a real circle again.”
👨‍👦 ThomasExpat dad in Lisbon
“Finally, an app that gets expat parents. You feel at ease right away, among families living the same thing.”

Your questions, answered

Is ExpatTribe free?
Yes, and generously so. On the free plan you create your family profile, write your bio and read everyone else's, explore your neighborhood map, get 5 likes a day and chat with the families you've matched with. Premium (messaging without waiting for a match, unlimited likes, "who liked you") is a subscription, with a 7-day free trial on the annual plan.
Are there ads in the app?
No, none at all: neither on free accounts nor with Premium. ExpatTribe is funded by the subscription, not by advertising. No advertising SDK is embedded in the app, and none of your data is used for tracking.
What if a family doesn't speak my language?
The app can automatically translate, as you read them, the messages you receive and the wiki entries written by other families. The original text is never replaced: the translation is added alongside it, labelled "Translated automatically", and you can go back to the original whenever you want. It is an aid to understanding, not a professional translation: when in doubt, the original prevails. Translation is carried out by the Anthropic (Claude) API; our privacy policy sets out exactly what is sent.
Can other people see my exact address?
Never. ExpatTribe only shows an approximate area of your neighborhood, never your precise address. You control what you share.
How are children protected?
Your children's birth date stays strictly private: it's never shared. Only their first name and age may appear, and only to families you've matched with. Nothing is public.
Which countries and cities does the app work in?
ExpatTribe is for expat families all over the world. Our community is growing first around Valencia and La Eliana, in Spain, then expands with every new family who joins a neighborhood.
How do I know a good address is reliable?
Each place shows how many families recommend it. As soon as three different families recommend the same place, it gets the “Verified reviews” badge and moves up the list. A family can recommend a place only once, and never its own: the count only reflects real families.
Can my partner use the app with me?
Yes, without sharing your account. Each parent signs in with their own (Apple, Google or email). From your profile, “Invite my partner” creates a six-character code, valid for 7 days and for one use. Your partner installs the app, chooses “Join my partner's family” and enters the code. You then share the same family: conversations, liked families, good addresses and the Premium subscription. A family has two adults at most.
Is the app available on Android?
ExpatTribe is an iPhone app. The Android version is in the works: leave your email in the block above and we will let you know as soon as it ships.
How does the Premium subscription work?
The subscription is managed directly by Apple's App Store or Google Play. Payment goes through your store account, ExpatTribe never stores any payment details. You can cancel anytime from your phone's settings. The subscription covers the whole family: if your partner has joined you with their own account, they benefit too.
