Description
Wile is a privacy and consent focused group chat and event planning app that seeks to provide a neutral territory for people to connect. It’s core functionality is the ability to use it anonymously from any platform while collecting as little user information as possible. Also important is that groups have a shelf-life, and are designed to expire once the event they were created for is over. The reason for this is to remove the barriers to entry and privacy concerns that people have when using a new platform, and make a quick, safe, and convenient platform for people to connect, commununicate, and plan activities together.
A user sees the group chat creation screen when they first land on the app or website. After creating a group, they are presented with a QR code and link to share with the people that they want to invite. Next, they choose their display name and an avatar, and then join the chat itself. While the group is active, a user can chat with users, share photos and links, and share their geolocation with the group.
Through the group’s options page, users can view all the members of the group, and tap on their photo to signal that they want to connect with that user after the group expires. If both users take this action, they become friends automatically. Users can also see all of the links and photos that have been shared throughout the chat, See the timeline of events planned for the group, and see the costs that people have paid for that they want to share with the group, such as car rentals, groceries, or accommodations.
When users become friends, their default preferences for social channel sharing are provided to their new friend. For example, if I set my default preference to share my instragram and facebook profiles, only those are automatically shared when I make a new friend. I still have the ability to manually provide other social and communication channels by tapping on a button within the app to give a specific user further access.
