With the growing protest against the recently passed bill called the Citizen Amendment Act, we see the internet services getting affected at the places of protest. After Assam its the turn of Delhi and even in some part of UP and other places, which have called upon to stop the agitation. At such a helm of an affair, we see the upsurge of a new offline messaging app called Bridgefy. It is gaining a good amount of traction among the people of India. The social media seems to be in a huge buzz that is seen recommending that with the help of using this application the slowdown or prevention of the Internet has cannot prevent the communication between the people of the affected areas.
As the internet services are getting regulated by the authorities for their own reason, it has become difficult to communicate. This is the very juncture when we have a popular messaging app called Bridefy comes into the picture as using WhatsApp you need a consistent internet connection. The company behind this app seemed to have tweeted about the rise in the use of its app. It also assured that they are ready to upgrade the customer support messages for the users in a much effective way for the Indian users. The official website of this application has also claimed that the app can be used for offline text messages and particularly during the time of natural disaster or calamity when the internet is down.
As you dig in deep on this app, you can find it working in three different modes seeking the help of Bluetooth and mobile phone. In the first mode, one can find it to be a one to one mode where the smartphones can be easily connected at the range of 330 feet or 100 meters claims the company. In the second option, you can find it working on the one-to-one long-distance’ mode where one can see the application messaging for the longer distances when compared to the prescribed 330 feet seeking the help of other Bridgefy users that are found in between the sender and receiver.
The third and the final mode is the broadcast mode, where the chatroom is created by any user and then the message is sent out to several users with this app which also includes the ones who are not in the contact list.
