Campfire is a new social app integrated into Pokemon GO to help players team up and take on more community-focused events like Raids and gym battles. You can find the official description for it on The Niantic website below.

“Campfire is a new social app that helps Niantic Explorers discover new people, places and experiences around them! Discover in-game activities, plan your next meetup, send a DM, and manage your friends list, all within a single app. Some features of Campfire are available within Niantic’s games, but for the full experience, users should download the standalone app.”

You can use this to coordinate with friends on your friend list or total strangers if you’re in a new area.
