Games are available everywhere in Honk, so you can play with new people via meet as well as existing friends.

Here's what's new!
REAL TALK: Meeting people over text is fun, but sometimes your thumbs get tired and you'd rather just talk. That's why we're super excited to introduce Real Talk, a new meet mode that allows you to do just that––meet new people over live audio calls!
To try it, go to the Meet tab and swipe on the For You card to see the Real Talk card. Once you tap 'Start Speaking', you'll be connected with someone new to start speaking with in just a few seconds.
We've even added an icebreaker game to these calls, which will give you an endless stream of fun questions you can answer in real-time to get to know each other. Each question lasts 1 minute, and you can always pause or skip them if you want to.
COMPATIBILITY SCORES: Now when meeting someone new, you'll get to see how compatible you are in a score out of 100. The more similarities you have between each other, the higher your score will be!
COMPLIMENTS: Ever meet someone on Honk that you really like? Sometimes giving them a good rating just isn't enough. That's why we're excited to introduce compliments! With compliments, anytime you rate someone good or great after chatting with them, you'll see a little gift icon next to their profile picture. Tap the icon and pick a compliment to give them! Once you do, they'll receive a notification that you sent them one, and will be able to view it anytime.
You can view all the compliments you've received on the Meet tab, right next to where your name is. Try and collect them all!
MEET HISTORY: There's nothing worse than meeting someone you like, but then not being able to find them again afterwards. We're fixing that with Meet History! You'll now see a little icon in the top right of the Meet tab, where you can find all your previous chats, including how long you spoke and the rating you gave.
The best part? You can send them a friend request right from that screen if you want to. Now you'll never have to worry about losing someone again.
