Woop – A Real Time Communication App

All the management functions such as Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Directing and Controlling will be gone for a toss in the absence of communication. No doubt, there are various communication channels. From a simple ‘Hello’ to a lengthy email, communication takes place in various forms. In every walk of life, communication has become a pre-requisite.

You love to communicate with a few while you hate to converse with vicious minds that trigger illogical conversations. Whatever may be the form of communication, it is undoubtedly the context and the content what matter the most.  Today, StartupWhale brings to your knowledge a perfectly progressive stance on Woop, a real-time communication app that cares about content.

About Woop

Woop is a real-time communication app that cares about context. To all intents and purposes, professional life is completely different from personal life. When you are in a business meeting discussing important business pointers, the so-called social context is quite different from that of your presence in an amusement park with your family members. When you are with your friends, you indulge in leisure and pleasure. Woop, the real-time communication app lets you effortlessly switch between the diverse social contexts thereby allowing you to maintain multiple identities.

Woop has an excellent single chat interface. The chat interface is the brain, heart and spine of Woop. This amazing app lets you share photos and videos, build communities and chat with your kith and kin. Promotion of events is always in the offing. Woop is currently in the beta stage.

Woop is based out of United States of America, North America.

Features

Let us head over to the amazing features of Woop.

 Create a hashtag

Ever thought of being your creative best? If you haven’t, surely this is the time for getting creative. ‘Create a hashtag’ feature lets you choose to be yourself. You can either represent a group of people such as your community, neighborhood, club, street etc. You can be anything. You can either be a real name or a pen name. You can either have a nickname or an alter ego. Just be yourself or the one whom you love to be as!

Pick a Mode

Woop is endowed with yet another awesome feature called ‘Mode’. Enlisted below are the three modes present in Woop:

• Teddy Mode: If you ever wish to make your hashtag private, then Teddy mode is for you. In Teddy mode, you will not be disturbed by your fellow community members, neighbors or friends. If you want to be disturbed, there is always a provision of inviting them. To sum it up, Teddy mode is a safe haven that makes your hashtags go private.
• Kitty Mode: If you want to make your hashtag go public, then Kitty mode is for you. Needless to say, this mode sits in the middle of Teddy and Bunny modes. Thanks to Kitty mode, you can always share something really cool with the world.
• Bunny Mode: Do you want everybody and anybody to participate in a conversation? Then surely, it is time to leverage Bunny mode. Thanks to Bunny mode, public conversations can be initiated. To sum it up, Bunny mode is the exact and complete opposite of Teddy mode.
