v1.4 · realtime · iOS / Android / web
Plus One is a free real-time chatting app: 1:1 and group chats (GCs), interest-based communities to make friends online, polls, voice notes and disappearing messages — on Android, iOS and the web.
An ink-and-paper messenger: live chats, a worldwide feed, place-based colleagues, stories, polls, WebRTC calls, and a daily AI greeting. Graphite, pulp, people.

Live from the product
These aren't mockups. Every element below is built with the app's own design tokens — Graphite & Pulp — and loops the way the product behaves.
Chat: typing dots, a sent message, ticks turning read, and a disappearing timer — 30s / 5m / 1h / 24h in the app.
Sunday long run — where?

Inside the notebook

Everything ships
Socket.IO delivery, typing, presence, unread badges, and ticks that catch up when someone reconnects. How the real-time chat works →
Replies, reactions, edits, forwards, voice notes with waveforms, images with lightbox, and delete-for-everyone.
First notes from outside your contacts wait in Requests until you accept, delete, or block.
Chat-wide or per-message timers: 30s, 5m, 1h, 24h. Expired messages are hard-deleted and vanish on every device.
Group polls with live bars. Admins rename, promote, and remove — the last admin never vanishes.
WebRTC on the web: ring, accept, mute, hang up. Call history everywhere. Dedicated Calls tab to call back.
Pin chats to the top. Star any message. Global search plus in-chat search that jumps to the match. Archive and mute.
Coloured text statuses, 24-hour expiry, viewed rings, tap-through progress. Paper, then gone.
Username + password, JWT sessions, auto-login, editable about. Password-confirmed permanent deletion with safe cleanup.
The Network
Post text, a cropped photo, and a tag. Likes and threaded comments land live. Filter by trending tags. Delete your own ink.
Communities
Start or join a community around a thing you actually do — the easiest way to make friends online. Open, ask-to-join, or invite-only — with polls, admins, and disappearing ink built in.
Once a day
After sign-in, a GLB character speaks — first name, real Open-Meteo conditions, unread and request counts — then signs off with “Let's find the +ones.”
And the rest of the notebook
Ionicons vectors and 1445 Twemoji. Same glyphs on iOS, Android, and web — no system emoji lottery.
Add to home screen, standalone chrome, paper theme-color, notch-safe padding. Median Android status bar match.
Light, dark, system, and Kinetic Ink — high-contrast manga-tech with cyan actions and red alerts.
Real WebM / M4A recording with permission, upload, and a playable waveform bubble with duration.
Block, mute, request inbox, status privacy, and a danger-zone Delete One ID that transfers shared groups first.
SQLite on a persistent volume, automatic backups every 6 hours and before shutdown. Only real sign-ups — no fake seed data.
Where it runs
Full PWA with live WebRTC media. Open it in two tabs and watch ticks go blue.
Open +oneExpo Go in a minute, or a side-loaded APK from EAS. Same paper UI.
