Hi, I have published a mobile app to have coffee chat with HN users.<p>There was already a guy who made a website for this, but I wanted to do it in mobile to practice WebRTC(technology behind the audio chat) and have some fun.<p>I haven't spent too much time in terms of the general functionality as a HN client but can upgrade it if there are enough users enjoying the app.<p>You can download the apps via the links below;<p>IOS: <a href="https://apps.apple.com/tr/app/betternews-coffee-chat/id6504711182" rel="nofollow">https://apps.apple.com/tr/app/betternews-coffee-chat/id65047...</a><p>Android:<p>As you might have known, Android requires the app to be tested in a closed beta with at least 20 people So you can follow these steps to be a part of it and download;<p>1 - join the group <a href="https://groups.google.com/g/betternews" rel="nofollow">https://groups.google.com/g/betternews</a><p>2 - download the app and enjoy<p><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apps.betternews">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apps.bette...</a> or <a href="https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.apps.betternews">https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.apps.betternews</a><p>Feel free to contact me if you have any questions; <a href="http://www.x.com/canergly" rel="nofollow">http://www.x.com/canergly</a>

I like this! HN gatherings used to happen in the past in various cities, are they still a thing? I’m envious of the irl meetings ACX community is having.
The app perpetually says "1 online users" and won't let me start a call. Unsure if there really are 0 users or if it's bugged/broken.
