About

Sawa

Read full description

Sawa turns "yalla, we should totally do this" into a plan that actually happens. You know the group chat. 97 messages. Zero decisions. Everyone says yalla, nobody picks a day, and the plan quietly dies somewhere around message 60, next to the meme replies. sawa takes the awkward out of together. FROM YALLA TO ACTUALLY THERE - Start the plan - an idea, a few date options, a place. Thirty seconds and it exists outside the chat. - Vote, don't debate - a tap beats a paragraph. The shy vote counts exactly the same as the loud one. - One-tap RSVP - going, maybe, can't. Zero pressure, and everyone sees the headcount update live. - Share one link - friends without the app open it in the browser, RSVP, and chip in as guests. No downloads, no excuses. MONEY, WITHOUT THE "WHO PAID?" - Split the bill - scan the receipt or add the items, everyone claims what they had and pays their exact share in QAR. - Collect for the plan - the trip, the gift, the BBQ. Paid and pending at a glance, no spreadsheets, no chasing. - Reminders come from Sawa, not from you. Friendships stay clean. A CHAT THAT KNOWS ITS PLAN Replies, reactions, photos straight from the camera, and a sticker pack with ูŠู„ุง energy. Every message can point at the plan it's about - tap it and you're there, not scrolling for it. NOT JUST YOUR FRIENDS. YOUR WHOLE SCENE Follow your padel crew, your run club, your people. Organizers post the next match as a real plan, and one tap says you're in. Announcements only: all signal, zero noise. ุนุฑุจูŠ AND ENGLISH Flip the whole app to proper right-to-left Arabic, or mix both exactly like your chat does. Making plans is free. When a plan collects money, a small card-processing fee is shown upfront before anyone pays โ€” no surprises, ever. Payments go through a licensed payment gateway, and you can delete your account any time from inside the app. More together. ุฃุญู„ู‰ ุณูˆุง
