## What is SQUAD?

◆ SQUAD is a new kind of laid-back text-based social app for staying in touch with friends

Just post a one-liner about what you're up to, and stay loosely, chill-ly connected with friends even when you're apart.
Gone in 24 hours, so it's easy. No read receipts, so it's never tiring.

For anyone worn out by read-receipt pressure and always-public posts, and looking for a new way to stay connected.


◆ Perfect for you if...

- You want to stay loosely connected with faraway friends or your partner
- You just want to jot down a quick "right now" without overthinking it
- You're tired of read-receipt pressure and social media where everything is public
- Keeping up with a timeline feels like a chore
- Apps that demand your attention wear you out
- You want a social app that doesn't get too close
- You feel like you can't post what you're really thinking on today's social media


◆ Ways to use SQUAD

- Casually share your "now" with friends you always want to stay in touch with
- Study together, loosely connected, even when you're both at home
- Send an easygoing invite: "Free later today, message me if you're up for dinner"
- Share widely and casually to meet up: "At the usual place, here till 9pm"
