One of the most stupidest and hopeless social network application I've ever seen. It's hilarious. It is actually miserable an App. During registration it says, sms sent to your number without an sms actually. That's how Niger things are. Calm down and develop something incisive you won't. So how do I register and log in? Trash!

It's okay by 40%. Let's download this application and correct whatever mistakes are in it. If we don't download it, how will we know what corrections to make. It's from Nigeria please let's support what comes from our country. It's going to be a great application in future. Cheers.

The moment I noted it's Nigerian I had to try it.It's quite good, but I don't like the fact that it doesn't rotate. I might rate it more if that is addressed. Thank you.
