Getting started

What is Roomie?

Roomie shows you who on your campus is going through life the way you are. Find a room posted by a student who lives like you, and join clans, the groups at your school built around what people actually enjoy.

Who can join?

Students 16 and older with a school email address ending in .edu. Your email decides your campus, and you only ever see students from your own school.

How do I sign in?

Enter your school email and tap Continue. We email you a 6-digit code. Enter it and you’re in. There’s no password to remember.

I didn’t get my code
  • Check your spam, junk and quarantine folders. School email systems sometimes hold messages from new senders.
  • Make sure the email address is spelled correctly.
  • Wait for the timer, then send a new code. Codes expire, so always use the newest one.
  • Still nothing? Email us and we’ll look into it.
Can I use my personal email?

No. A school email is what keeps each campus to its own students.

Is Roomie free?

Yes. No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and we don't sell your data.

Rooms

How do I post a room?

Tap the gold R. in the top corner of any screen, then Create a listing. Add the title, location, rent, photos and what the place is like. Your room appears to students at your school.

How do I edit or remove my listing?

Open your listing and tap the edit button. Save your changes, or scroll to the bottom and tap Delete listing. Clans work the same way.

What do the gold tags mean?

Gold means you match. Any interest a listing shares with yours shows in gold, and the closest matches rise to the top of your feed. Update your interests from the R. menu with Change interests.

How do I contact someone about a room?

Tap Message on the listing or on their profile. Roomie opens your email app, addressed to their school email. Your messages go directly between you two.

Does Roomie check the listings?

No. Roomie doesn’t own, inspect or guarantee any room, and it doesn’t screen students. Every poster has a school email at your school, but always visit in person before paying anything. See safety tips.

Clans

What is a clan?

A group at your school built around the way people actually live: hikes, restaurants, fight nights, Bible study, padel, the gym and more. Clans post their next activities so you can join in.

How do I find clans that fit me?

On the Clans tab, tap the question mark to open Who I Am, pick what’s actually you, and tap Show My People. Tap Show All to see every clan again.

How do I join an activity?

Open a clan and tap Sign up? on an upcoming activity. Your sign-ups are listed in the R. menu under Sign-up log, where you can withdraw.

How do I start a clan?

Tap the gold R., then Create a listing, and choose clan when asked what you’re posting. Add a name, a description, photos and your first activities.

Safety

How do I report a room or a clan?

Tap the gold R., then Report. Choose what you’re reporting and tell us why. The student is not told who reported them. We review reports within 24 hours and remove content that breaks our Terms.

How do I block someone?

Open their profile and tap Block. Their listings and clans stop showing up for you and you can’t message them. They aren’t told.

How do I unblock someone?

Tap the gold R., then Blocked, and tap Unblock next to their name.

Safety tips for meeting people and finding a room
  • Meet in a public place on campus the first time.
  • Tell a friend where you’re going and who you’re meeting.
  • Visit a room in person before paying anything.
  • Never pay by wire transfer, gift card or cryptocurrency, and never send a deposit for a place you haven’t seen.
  • Read the lease or sublease before you sign, and check your school’s housing rules if applicable.
  • If something feels off, it probably is. Report it.
  • In an emergency, call 911, or campus police if you’re on campus.

Privacy

Who can see my profile?

Only students at your school, and only through what you post. When you post a listing or start a clan, they see it with your name, year, major, bio and school email. If you haven’t posted anything, they don’t see you at all. Your interests and Who I Am picks are never shown to anyone. Details are in our Privacy Policy.

Do I have to fill in Who I Am?

No. Every part of it is optional, including faith. Only you can see what you pick, and Roomie uses it to show you the clans that fit you. Deselect it any time.

Does Roomie sell my data or show ads?

No and no. Roomie has no ads, no tracking, and never sells your personal information.

Delete your account

In the app: tap the gold R. in the top corner of any screen, tap Erase me from Roomie., then confirm with Erase. Your account is deleted right away, along with your profile, interests, Who I Am picks, listings, clans, photos, sign-ups and blocks. You’ll get a confirmation email.

Without the app: email team@roomieapp.live from your school email with the subject “Delete my Roomie account.” We’ll delete it within 7 business days and confirm by email.

We keep a minimal record of the deletion (email address, account ID and date), and reports about harmful content may be kept for safety. Backups roll off within 30 days. See the Privacy Policy.
