Some stats two hours after submission if someone is interested:

- 92 new users

- 88 chatrooms were opened

- 14 users from London, 10 Amsterdam, 8 Berlin, 8 New York, 8 Chicago, 6 Toronto. It seems like because it's so early, mostly Europe has seen it so far.

I've been using this for around 10 minutes now and it seems fairly buggy, the main ones I've hit are: * Messages appear in the wrong conversation, then move back to the correct one on close/open. * I get notified about new chats that then don't appear in the list

Thanks, working on it! Didn't expect that to directly take to be honest.

SF is just waking up so that is probably why you don't see more.

Is it anonymous? Permissions: Identity Uses one or more of: accounts on the device, profile data Contacts/Calendar Uses one or more of: calendar, contact information Location Uses the device's location

Ok, it seems that the update hasn't gone through yet, where it only asks for location now. Should be through soon.

It works for me, only requesting location.

I'm ambivalent on the name, though I do like that the name says what it does without any silly made-up gibbrish name.

Reminds me of "60 Minutes" the long-running television news program. If I didn't know better, I would assume this was an app for discussing recent 60 Minutes stories.

Maybe I'm just old, though.

No iOS version in case anybody is curious.

That seems stupid. This is an app that needs all the network effect it can get.

What's stupid about starting with the biggest platform?
