Frequently Asked Questions

How do I manage my notifications ?

You can change your notifications settings anytime via your general iPhone settings menu. Your modifications will take place the next time you launch Sooshi.

You can request to be notified when you receive new private messages (exactly like SMS), when someone replies to a public talk you are part of and when someone is nearby you. This lets you interact in real time with the people around you.

Only peoples who shares their excat position are displayed on the map.

On the map there are red & purple pins. What is the difference ?

In the visibility screen, one can choose to be in another location than your real position (GPS). In this case, the person is virtually visiting a place. Such visitors are displayed as red pins on the map. People using their real positions (GPS) are displayed as purple pins on the map.
