Ratings and reviews

Answer your question: Galexy s24 Fe SAMSUNG A53 xiaomi note 13 Xiaomi pro This app doesn't find people who are very close or has a hard time finding them, and messages arrive very late to people who are close, which will certainly make it harder for people who are far away to communicate. I tested this with a few friends and the connection was very poor.

I didn't open it, cuz I like to see it when I arrive home, but I think it's brilliant way for local communication range and with secure p2p encryption.... like a mini Tor.... or block chain design.... Great..

This is super good in graphics and accessibilty. This is fast and secure. but a problem: In My City no one have this app. This makes my alone in this app.
