Equal level of satisfaction for eveyone

Currently most social network platforms are only supportive of people who can see. They may not be able to read and write but may still be able to get a high level of satisfaction from using those platforms. Sadly, not all can see. many can't see, they can't read and write in the case where there are a lot of texts involved. I'm some other cases dyslexic people may not be able to view important content because they have difficulties reading texts. Sometimes it may be a bit time consuming. you cannot go through your timeline without spending a couple of minutes in many cases hours doing anything else. Goin through social media these days means you have a lot of spare time because people spend a lot of time on them. In the case of Just Talk now, you might need to spend a couple of minutes looking for the right audio but once you find it, you can carry on with what you were doing. This is because you can listen and do something else at the same time. In future this would even be made better with perfect integration with Siri, amazon alexia and other smart speakers. specific voice commands can be made to find specific or a number of Casts even without touching your phone. You will be able to go through your timeline without going looking at your phone. Direct messages will be even better. Easy direct messaging with your voice. The smart speakers will not have to bother about converting your spoken words to text as it will spend most times recording compared to recording and converting. There will be no need to try and change the spoken words into texts for the receiving end because the receiving end is audio only also. No texts involve. Because of this audio features of Just Talk we feel many people will (regardless of their visual problems or inability to read and write) get equal satisfaction on Just Talk. 

Did you know!! ( Spoken words versus Written/texted words)

Did you know that even with the word "please" in a sentence, you could still bore into the nerves of someone and piss them off? Depending on where the word "please" goes in a sentence, you can easily be misunderstood. Compare certain scenarios in your mind with spoken and written words. You will quickly discover written words can easily be misunderstood because there's no tone or audible expression to it. Readers can use any tone they feel like depending on their mood. To retain intimacy while speaking to someone, you may chose to speak to someone in person (face to face conversation), over the phone (phone call) or through video calls. Hence the person must be readily available to speak to you when you wish to speak to them. We all know this is not possible all the time as people have very diverse schedules and live in different time zones and may often need to communicate to each other. Sometimes it's expensive to call if the other person is abroad. there might be too much of the word "hello, hello hello, can you hear me?" with voice calls over the internet. Some of us don't live in countries with fast internet, some of us have friends and family abroad in those countries. With video calls, the person not only needs to be available to speak to you, but must be ready to show their face in front of a camera assuming the internet signal is perfect in the first place. Sometimes it may have to be premeditated when it comes to group calls. What if you want to share your message to a lot of people who are very busy and will only be able to listen or view your message when they're less busy? perhaps a pre-recorded video or a live video would do the trick. But you know you have to be camera ready to record yourself and your users may have to pay attention, Not only listening but watching also. We listeners have to wave bye to multitasking while we're watching that video. We already have social media and direct messaging apps/platforms like Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram and Snapchat that make communication easier  by allowing users share using, texts, pictures and videos. Most of them include voice notes/text-to-speech/speech-to-text as a passive feature of which doesn't work well in many instances as people have different accents and sometimes the phone just doesn't understand you. None of them ever place emphases on voice notes which can solve all the issue discussed earlier and many more that have not been highlighted. The Just Talk social media app does not only address issues and more. We are aware that not everyone knows how to read and write, it also introduces some new features that make audio chatting and sharing a lot fun, it is the first social media app that focuses on voice memos. It attracts users from all parts of the world because of its simplicity. Users can share like they do on other social media platform a long as they remember they would be sharing voice memos only. Not everyone likes how they sound when they record a voice memo, so the app includes Voice filters that allow users change how they sound. Direct messaging is also possible with the conditions that it will be voice memos only. An interesting feature about direct messaging is that all direct messages are automatically deleted after 24hours regardless of whether they've been opened or not. The uses for every individual are endless just like other social media platforms. This is a new platform that everyone should truly get into. It's faster as all you need is your voice.

A Social Network for Voice Notes (voice memo) only

Over time the means of communication has evolved. Many new means have been created. Some of which includes Video call, face to face conversation, letter writing, Phone call, Text messaging, conference call, picture sharing and Voice notes. Most of the new means of communication have been through online platform for social networking. Facebook has pictures, texts and videos, Instagram mainly focuses on pictures and videos, WeChat basically has everything and more. Then we have twitter which is purely text, with the later inclusion of videos and pictures. All of these platforms also have a direct messenger imbedded in them that allow users to send Texts, pictures, videos, Gifs, voice memos and emojis. WhatsApp's and BBM's main focus is on text direct messaging. If you take a look at all of the trends in most social network, you'll discover that most of them place emphasis on text, videos and pictures. Every other feature is an added on feature. None of them have placed major emphasis on voice messaging even tho quite a number of people enjoy sending voice notes. Although proportion of voice memos compared to text messages in most messaging app are small, we have found a large proportion with WeChat. The western world and other part of the world might be texting but WeChat which is based in china understand the benefits of voice messaging. It's faster, it retains intimacy in conversations and most of all its just easier than texting considering that typing in Chinese is not as straight forward as typing in English. 13% of the messages sent by youths are Voice messages, 16% of messages sent by any typical user are voice messages with the highest proportion coming from senior users at 22% (Statista, 2018)

The importance of voice messages over other forms of communication are many and interesting. With  phone call, whoever you're trying to reach has to be ready and available to not only listen to you but speak back to you. With Text messages, The issues are even greater, not everyone can read and write, it just takes to much time, it's easy to lie over texts, your texts can easily be misread as written words tend to have more than one interpretation, intimacy is barely present. Think about those "LOL(s)" you've written with a straight face, that should help you understand where I'm heading. Video call has similarities with phone calls, but imagine what a weak internet signal would do to that skype call with family. To many, people video calls are not something you do every time. Voice notes can make your day to day means of communication easier, you can synch schedules together and retain intimacy. It's faster and easier. For these reasons Just Talk has been created.

The uses of Just Talk extends further from Just an audio messaging app to a new age social media platform with emphasis on our voices. That is something no one has done before. This is the first time we have a platform that focuses on voice notes only. Its is a social media/networking platform for Voice notes only where all of your posts are limited to voice notes only. You have maximum of 3 minutes to express yourself in a public post or in a direct message. Not everyone likes how they sound so we included voice filters that help users change how they sound. You can monitor the number of times your uploads have been played. All private direct messages are automatically deleted after 24 hours regardless of weather you've opened them or not. A history of all your messages will remain but the messages will be long gone.

We should remember that nothing like this has ever existed before and the uses are immense. Imagine you loved sending voice notes and loved receiving them but it' not the same for your friends, every time you send them a voice note on WhatsApp or whatever media app, you always got a text back. on just talk you'll be 100 percent assured that every message you sent or received will be a voice memo (voice note) because on this app, there is not texting involved. It's 100% voice notes only. You don't Text, you just talk. If you were a motivational speaker, a pastor, a comedian, an actor or anybody, regardless of whether you have fans or followers and you want to share something important or fun. Before your options where limited to videos, pictures and texts if you had to do it on social media.  for videos you have to be well dressed probably, put your videos face on, shoot then upload, for texting you had to type the message which takes time and after you upload it, you'd have to start hoping no one has misinterpreted what you wrote. picture has similar problems with videos and texts but with voice notes it's a different ball game. In many occasions the most interest post of the day comes up right as you wake up in the morning. No need for all the charades with voice notes all you have to do is push and start recording. You don't even have to get out of bed to do that. in the future Just Talk will be integrated with your smart speakers (Siri, google voice, bixbi and so on) so you don't even have to turn on your phone if you don't want to. all you have to do is say a couple of commands and you'll be ready to go. These are only a few of many way Just Talk can change the way we do things.

So why don't you start giving Just Talk a go. Be one of the first star to be popular on this. Just as long as you remember you don't have to text, Just Talk.
