## What is Jipkok?

Jipkok shows you the people who actually live nearby and lets you say hello with a single note. No matching, no swiping. Just browse your neighbors and reach out when someone catches your eye.

NEARBY
Open the app and see people around you, sorted by distance. Everyone you see is within walking distance.

ONE NOTE TO START
Found someone interesting? Send a note. If they reply, you're chatting. If not, that's the end of it. Simple.

MORE THAN CHAT
- Feed – photos and short posts from people in your area
- Worries – an anonymous board for questions only locals can answer, or things you can't say out loud
- Diary – a private daily journal with photos, videos and mood stamps. Only you can see it.

BUILT WITH YOUR PRIVACY IN MIND
- Distances are calculated on a 1 km grid, so your exact location is never revealed
- Block phone numbers so people you know can't find you
- Lock the app with Face ID
- Reports keep a snapshot of the conversation, so evidence stays even if the other person leaves

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

Jipkok is made and run by one person. If something feels off, let me know and I'll fix it in the next update.
