In general, it looks like a cool product that I must try with any outdoor activities. Any plan for Android app release? In addition, did you internally develop the group chat functionality?

@markatsendbird Thank you so much for the kind words! An Android version of Karavan is definitely coming in the future. For the skeleton of Karavan's chat, I used an open source 3rd party library - I expanded on the basic framework to make it better for the users and unique to Karavan.

Was just asked a great question by Arseniy Gallager on Facebook: Question: What is the difference between Karavan and Apple's 'Find Friends' App? Answer: Find Friends lacks several important features that Karavan provides. For example: -Find Friends does not include a chat room or a way for users to easily communicate with one another. -Find Friends also lacks the ability for users to drop "rally pins” on the map for the entire group to see. -Karavan, unlike Find Friends, allows you to stop updating your location simply by exiting out of the app (going offline). -Unlike other location apps including Find Friends, Karavan’s location services have been optimized to NOT drain your phone’s battery and data.

One of the better apps I've seen for keeping friends together at concerts or just a night on the town. :-)
