Result
Private server for China region
Since China banned most of Google servers’ apps, there was a complete crackdown on Chinese apps as well. To make the app work properly in China as well, our team identified a private server for the region.Sharing multimedia
This Social Network App enables users to text, make audio and video calls to their loved ones. They can add images, make groups, and send multimedia through the app.QR scanning for adding contacts
Most platforms require a specific contact to be stored into a mobile device to start a chat. This app provides a QR Code for each user which needs to be scanned to start a chat in no time.Push notifications
Firebase and other well-reputed servers are banned from running in China. We implemented the J-Push service to add push notifications in China.
