ChatPal

ChatPal is a hyper-local (within 300 feet around YOU) social messenger app, for TEMPORARY connections. Look around and connect with users immediately around you. Chat. Ask. Discuss. Share.    
 # WHY CHATPAL, this CLOSE-PROXIMITY MESSAGING “WALKIE-TALKIE” APP? Restaurants and bars, festivals, food trucks, protests, emergencies, resorts, stadiums, conferences, clubs, airports, concerts, apartments, in the middle of traffic--there are numerous occasions you come across people you DON’T know.  How does one communicate, temporarily in many instances, under these circumstances without knowing or exchanging personal details? ChatPal is an app for such connections-- One-on-one, One-to-many, Group Broadcasts, and more.   # FOR TEAMS and BUSINESSES-A NEW WAY TO ENHANCE COMMUNICATIONS: 

A team or a business can “TAG” (via a logo) fellow team members using the ChatPal WebApp (at www.chatpalapp.com/teams ). Users can then interact with tagged team members of a business/organization for better service and communication at a business or event location. # KEY FEATURES:    + CHAT one on one with multiple users at the same time 
+ BROADCAST messages to users in your vicinity + MAINTAIN PRIVACY by not sharing your details unless you feel like it  + AUTO DELETE messages and users when you leave an area  + TAG and identify team members of a business at a location   + CLOAK yourself from being seen but see nearby users  + BLOCK users you don't want to chat with  + FILTER users you may want to chat with  + COLORED USER RINGS, a “badge” indicative of relative user friendliness
