This is probably the app that most developers who attended or watched the multipeer connectivity framework session at WWDC thought of building at first, but then gave up. In my opinion it exponentially amplifies the most critical problem with all the hyperlocal messaging apps--"Who else is on this now?"

@ezrasuki lol good point about when everyone came up with this idea. It's one of the personal projects I started but haven't finished. Glad someone else made it.

Hong Kong protesters are giving this relevance. Huge adoption during yesterday's pro-democracy protest.

Interesting idea @Nivo0o0 and I met yesterday and chatted about this type of connection. Pretty cool! Excited to see the ideas coming out of this space.
