More than 5 million people are expected to greet Pope Francis during his stay in the Philippines between January 15 and January 19, 2015.
It is likely that cellular phone networks will be congested and accessing the Internet will be challenging. Thankfully, there is a revolutionary app called FireChat that allows you to chat on your mobile phone regardless. It works by connecting phones around directly with one another (peer-to-peer). And if you are connected to the Internet, you can chat with people all around the world too.
- 1. Please download FireChat on your iOS or Android device. Clicking on this link will take you directly to the right chatroom. http://firech.at/PopeFrancisPH
- 2. Create your profile by adding a short bio and photo
- 3. Keep Bluetooth and WiFi turned on.
That’s all. You do not need to do anything else. The more people use the app the better the network gets for everybody.
You may share pictures using FireChat. Only the people who follow you will see your pictures. And if you don’t like what someone is saying, you can block this person simply by pressing and holding on that message.
We hope that you will discover many interesting people and wish you a fun time on FireChat.
If you like like, please invite your friends by sending them the same link. It works in SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, email, anything. http://firech.at/PopeFrancisPH
