MeroChat is a gamified, self moderated, random chat application for platonic interactions.
Gamification is the technique of using game-like features (point scoring, achievements etc) to boost engagement; it is present in MeroChat via Badges, Trophies and Karma. Karma also doubles as a self moderation tool: features (such as sending images, audio, video etc) are only available after obtaining the necessary amount of Karma. Random, as in random chat, means that chat partners are suggested by the app. Such suggestions may be skipped, but not filtered in any way (such as by age, gender, location etc). Finally, MeroChat is not a dating or hookup app- the focus is amicable chatting.
Requirements (definitions, business logic and mockups) for MeroChat are grouped as follows:
