we discovered a great use case for bitchat at a conference: panel moderator on the cypherpunk stage used it to collect questions from the audience. it worked great.

Imagine it at sporting events or concerts. Basically a group chat room for everyone there. Partyyyyyy!
I see this in the Google Play Store, but I thought that bitchat wasn't (yet) available in any stores, and was only available via a manual Indian of an apk.
Is this the real app?
Don’t trust, verify.
Judging from the company name and rating I think you can guess 😜
A twitch live chat but for real life LFG
I wouldn't download it from the app store. Use their Github instead and download the apk:

Release APK release 0.8.2 · permissionlesstech/bitchat-android
A lot of housekeeping:
UI fixes
Mention users by typing "@"

Just keeps getting better⚡️
Is there a way to have private chats in Bitchat?
Very cool. Great use case. I do wonder if this could lead to some verbal version of the WNBA dildo throws, with "trouble makers" in any given audience, but I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. 😄
This is awesome - was just hearing about difficulty with no signal at the Outside Lands concert… wonder if I can convince my teenager and her friends to give it a try.

this is some really cool Shit!
I didn’t realise how massive this was when experiencing it. Great panel on sovereign individual ⚡️🙌🏾
That’s indeed a good idea!
Why doesn't bitchat keep running in the background? I had opened it and my girlfriend too, an hour later I went to the toilet outside the mountain cabin (without connection), but was out of paper. We weren't connected anymore so I couldn't message her for more paper haha. Any plans on improving this? It seems like you have to explicitly open the app both at the same time to make it work now.
This might be off topic.
Is anyone creating a Nostr app store?
Apple store is not my go to place.
The implications /use cases for Bitchat is awesome .
For Android @Zapstore exists and works very well!!
🤙
How does it work?
Like a chat-room?
But they still need to install the legitimate Bitchat app right? I think that I the biggest effort now!
Was it @npub1yn3h...mzt0?
Fascinating. Bluetooth isn't the most reliable connection but seems like a good stepping stone until it improves.
If the name of the company"s CEO is Satoshi Nakamoto, then I trust it 😃

What is the range in meters for bluetooth when using Bitchat?
with enough network effect many cool use cases become possible
the same should be true for tons of other technologies that failed to gather enough network effect
such as bitcoin and nostr
Love it and we just getting started
@jack just thank you Jack for this miracle !
aw i love this, i hope to be able to use it with hopefully at least one other person soon 🥰
cool indeed
That’s fantastic.
It’s going to have so many uses for whenever there is a gathering of people:
Concerts, festivals, matches, skiing!
is that in android?
we could use this on barcrush dating app.
Thanks for that. I'll check it out. Bookmarked for later study.
Imagine a Bitchat room on the floor of the house...

My Nintendo DS could do that in 2004
Thank you . I didn't know Nostr had an app index . Still working my way through it.
