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. Please
remember that the service is still in public beta.
Stay tuned!

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 …
[View More]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 :-)

Hi all,
Hope this email finds you well.
We are elated to announce that Prav app project has reached the minimum

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-…
[View More]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.
