As we know, to communicate with a person we may need at least some information like a person’s contact/mobile number in order to chat with him/her. There may be instances where we want to contact someone nearby and we do not have their contact details, in such a situation our app plays a crucial role in the communication. To overcome this, we came up with an idea of making an app which will use the location/GPS of a user’s device to locate nearby users. We are also aware that the privacy policy of most of the popular apps state that they would sync our data with their parent company for advertisement purposes. Old chatting applications lack security, and the addition of more security layers is our major priority. As the old Chinese apps are banned by the Indian government we felt the need to develop an Indian app which can contribute towards the ‘Make in India’ movement.
