Adding friends by People Nearby/Friend Radar/Message in a Bottle
In fact, WeChat has tons of ways to add friends. You can even use it to make new friends in your area through People Nearby, Friend Radar and Message in a Bottle.
1. People Nearby
From the Discover tab, choose People Nearby.
By default, the last few posts from Moments will be displayed to anyone who finds you in People Nearby. This can be turned off in Settings.
Tip:Clear your location to prevent anyone from finding you.
After opening People Nearby, you'll be visible on the list yourself for a limited period of time after (less than 24 hours), during which people can try to add you or send you a greeting. But if you'd like to take yourself off the list before that time, you can clear your location manually.
From the Discover tab, go to People Nearby > "..." in the top right corner > Clear Location.
2. Friend Radar
If you've just made a group of new friends in real life and want to swap contact info, you don't have to worry about individually adding everyone. There's a much faster way. Just have everyone open "Friend Radar". Now the entire group can add each other in one fell swoop.
From the main screen, tap the Contacts button, then the icon in the top right corner, then Friend Radar.
