Hereers is a location-based social app about here and now. Open it and you'll see a map and the posts written within 500 metres of you. ● Posts stay where they were written A post is tied to the spot you were standing in, and only people there can see it. It reaches someone on the same street corner, not someone far away. ● A quiet way to respond If a post is good, you can like it. That's the whole interaction. Good for: ・Finding out what's happening right here, on a trip or on your commute ・Sharing a sunset or cherry blossoms with whoever else is looking at them ・Noting the queue at one place and the empty seats at another, within a short walk For your peace of mind: ・Other people only see how far away a post is — your current location is never shared ・You can report a post or block a user at any time ・Location is used only while you're using the app
