cant get to sign up, there are no options rather than through a call. even the OTP is shared through the call, not the number so you should take the call first.
dont care about the personal choice to protect themselves from spam calls.

Impossible to register

The app has many roadblocks for registration, so if you are not next to anyone who can serve as a “referral”, it’s impossible to register
