Ragchews is a mobile app that allows users to chat anonymously with others in a targeted location in real time. It is based on ham radios but is easier to use and has wider coverage. Users communicate through system-generated handles without revealing identities or exact locations. The app helps users discover like-minded individuals to discuss travel info, get guidance, chat casually, or get anonymous help.

2. WHAT IS RAGCHEWS?
Ragchews is a fun and safe instant chat mobile application that helps you
discover and find like-minded individuals in a targeted location to chat
anonymously and get personalized and localized information in the real
time.
Ragchews is based on centuries old proven concept of the Ham radios, just
a whole lot easier and potentially much wider coverage.
Usecases are many - localized travel info, personalized guidance and
information, casual chatting, anonymous help, make friends etc - all of them.

Hi - NXY4598. How are you?
Hello USP1945
Our son - 12 years old is very
keen on bungee jumping from
Kawarau bridge. Wanted to check if
you have had any experience.
Yes - it is pretty safe actually.
My daughter - 13 years old did it
recently and I have done it myself
too.
