World's first short-range one-way communication app. This app is designed for communicating with people around you, when you can't speak or be heard. You don't need to know the other person's phone number. Just type your message and show it. The best chat app for quiet places (meetings, conferences, libraries and more), and for sports coaches to give directions to their teams.
