Vicinity: Proximity Chat 2.0.15

The goal of Vicinity is to provide all nearby smartphones with an instant, common channel of communication.

Vicinity is a social tool developed with a vision to unite people during an era of growing social disconnection. Its live chatroom and messaging features offer the ability to connect with everyone in your vicinity—interacting broadly with smartphone users around you has never been simpler. This application enables entire cities and neighborhoods to engage in real-time group conversations!

While other social media platforms, despite good intentions, have led to negative personal and societal consequences, Vicinity aims to counteract this trend by facilitating real-time connections between individuals within their community.

Connect instantly with neighbors, classmates, or passersby in any environment or location. Join a live chatroom based on a radius of your choice and send messages to any member within that Vicinity. Make use of private messaging to converse with any other user participating in the chatroom.

Various apps cater to fostering friendships and social interactions, but Vicinity stands out as a dedicated tool to encourage you to engage in face-to-face interactions rather than being glued to your device.

Feeling isolated? Set the radius and discover nearby individuals sharing mutual interests. Vicinity allows you to promptly connect and socialize uniquely. Share thoughts, useful information, or pose questions on any topic to gain insights from others as well.
