A unique instant messaging app that lets users earn money and donate to charities while communicating.

Functionality

Spoora is an instant messaging application that allows users to interact with others while simultaneously earning money. This is facilitated through the use of 'spooris', a digital currency that is accrued each time a user sends a message. Each message sent by a user is equivalent to three spooris, roughly equating to a cent in dollar value. The accumulation of these spooris can be monitored within the user's Spoora wallet, which provides a real-time balance that can be exchanged for cash at any point.

Charitable Aspect

What sets Spoora apart from other instant messaging applications is its philanthropic feature. Half of the monetary value earned from sending messages is allocated to a non-profit organization of the user's choice. This allows users to contribute to charitable causes while simply engaging in regular communication. The remaining half of the earnings can be transferred to a PayPal account, providing a unique opportunity for users to earn while they chat.

User Interface

Despite the innovative approach to instant messaging, Spoora's user interface leaves much to be desired. The design is rather rudimentary and lacks the sleek, intuitive functionality seen in other popular messaging apps. This could potentially detract from the user experience, limiting the app's overall appeal.

Overall Performance

While Spoora's unique monetization feature is a strong selling point, the application's performance as an instant messaging platform is rather average. The app's limited functionalities might not cater to users who are accustomed to using more sophisticated messaging apps. Nonetheless, Spoora's charitable aspect coupled with the opportunity to earn money through regular communication presents a compelling reason for users to try it out.

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access approximate location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
  • ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access precise location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION.
  • CAMERA: Required to be able to access the camera device.
  • GET_ACCOUNTS: Allows access to the list of accounts in the Accounts Service.
  • READ_CALL_LOG: Allows an application to read the user's call log.
  • READ_CONTACTS: Allows an application to read the user's contacts data.
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • READ_SMS: Allows an application to read SMS messages.
  • RECEIVE_SMS: Allows an application to receive SMS messages.
  • RECORD_AUDIO: Allows an application to record audio.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
