Great app to chat with strangers around you

It’s a great app to just chat in a big chat room with people in your area.
The subscription is $10 a year, great deal. (No subscription required to chat with everyone).
I highly recommend you give this app a look.

Welcome to the future of communication

Great for having a quick chat with the people in my direct community, rather than random people on the internet. Super easy to get some advice, broadcast an idea, or strike up a conversation with someone new. Nice app will keep using
