## What is Ciao! Chat Nearby?

Ciao! lets you chat with people who have the app open near you, over Bluetooth. No account, no phone number, no servers: messages travel straight from phone to phone.

HOW IT WORKS
• Tap "I'm available" and see who is around, as a list or on a circular radar.
• Pick a person and write. You can also send animated reactions.
• People who walk away disappear by themselves: the chat lives as long as you are close.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
• Others only see an anonymous name (Guest + 4 digits), your language and your interests.
• Your real name, photo, short video and personal info are hidden: you decide, item by item, whether to show them to everyone, to nobody, or only to one person you picked.

TRANSLATE ON THE SPOT
One tap on "Translate" and you read the message in your language, using Apple's translation.

SAFETY
• Report and block anyone at any time, and delete messages instantly.
• Automatic message filtering; reports are reviewed within 24 hours.
• Adults only (18+), with community rules to accept.

TRY IT ALONE
In Profile you'll find a demo mode with sample people, so you can try the radar, chat and reactions with a single phone.

FREE AND PRO
• Free: you always receive messages and can send up to 20 a day.
• Ciao Pro: unlimited messages, €0.99 per month. The subscription renews automatically every month until you cancel it in your Apple Account settings, at least 24 hours before renewal.

The app works with the screen on and the app open; Bluetooth must be on.
