I'm working on a (not so instant) messaging app to help friends stay connected.

Most of us use some form of instant messaging apps like whatsapp, FaceTime, snapchat to be in touch with our close friends/family inner circle. But it's hard to keep in touch with the ones whom we lost touch with. like your best friend from school, ex colleague.

My goal is to create an app that will randomly connect them out of the blue.



I would love a personal CRM where I can assign my contacts to a certain frequency of communication -- and then after that amount of time has elapsed without any calls or texts, it will prompt me to reach out to them. Is that anything along the lines of what your app does?


Cool. I have built something similar for myself.


Any chance that it is publicly available? What platform is it on?


honest question, but isn't that one of the main value propositiona of Facebook die to its sheer number of accounts? how do you track people without a complementary size?
