We are heading towards completion of another milestone 😃 Thanks to Vishnu Sanal, Prav is on Google Play Store now. It requires a 2-week testing period before being open to public downloads. Right now, only authorized testers can test it. Interested in testing? Just share your Gmail address with us. On the other hand, the app is free to download from F-Droid.

Help us by contributing to Prav iOS fundraiser
by Ravi Dwivedi 07 Jan '24

07 Jan '24

Hi all, We need your help! In our experience, onboarding iOS users to XMPP is inconvenient right now compared to Android - there is no Quicksy-like phone number/SMS OTP sign up. Developing a convenient and easy-to-onboard XMPP iOS app is one of our top priorities. Help us and the whole XMPP ecosystem by contributing to the Prav iOS app fundraiser at the following link 👉 https://opencollective.com/prav-ios. Prav iOS app will be Free/Libre Software[1] following our track record of transparency and privacy. Due to network effects, a messaging app is not just a personal choice and even a single contact of yours having iOS can affect wider adoption of XMPP (we also don't like Apple but we feel this is an essential step for adoption of XMPP by people outside the Free Software circles). Remember that whatever be the amount, every donation counts :-) [1] https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-even-more-important.html -- Ravi Dwivedi https://ravidwivedi.in

Good news! We reached minimum members requirement for registering a Multi State Cooperative Society in India
by Ravi Dwivedi 19 Nov '23

19 Nov '23

Hi all, Hope this email finds you well. We are elated to announce that Prav app project has reached the minimum required members needed for registering a Multi State Cooperative Society in India! We have got 50+ members from the states of Kerala and Maharashtra, fulfilling the legal requirement of 50 pledges from two Indian states. You can check the number of member separated on basis of state at https://prav.app/become-a-member. Currently, we are finalizing bye-laws for the co-operative society and are looking forward to register as soon as possible. If you are familiar with drafting legal documents in general, your help and insights into crafting the bye-laws would be greatly appreciated. Please note that you can still become a member of the co-operative by submitting the membership form at https://prav.app/become-a-member. However, also keep in mind that all members have to be a citizen of India. Thanks to the co-operative structure, all members will get 1 vote irrespective of how many shares they bought, for general decision-making and to elect the board of directors of the Prav co-operative society. Lastly, we would like to sincerely thank all those who have pledged to join the co-operative, volunteered for the project, or helped with outreach. Your help was and will continue to be extremely useful for furthering the goals of Prav. -- Ravi Dwivedi https://ravidwivedi.in
