## What is Jipkok?

Jipkok is a chat app for making friends with people nearby.

- Find people nearby
Browse members near you by recent activity or distance. View them as big cards or as a quick list.

- One-on-one chats and Notes
Send a Note to someone you like, and the chat opens once they accept. Photos, videos, link previews, replies, and reactions are all built in.

- Voice calls
Call the people you chat with, right inside the app.

- Lounge
Feed: browse photos from people who share your interests and chat in the comments.
Worries: share what's on your mind and get kind comments.

- A diary just for you
Record your day along with your mood. Only you can see your diary.

- Make it yours
Pick light or dark mode and choose your own chat bubble and background colors. Keep your chats safe with App lock.

- Stay safe
Report or block members who make you uncomfortable. Add phone numbers to Blocked numbers so people you know can't see you, and you can't see them. Voice calls are recorded so reports can be reviewed, and recordings are deleted after 30 days.

Jipkok is available in English, Korean, Japanese, and Traditional Chinese.
