SNS by email(VoidVoice) description

This is a slightly strange application that can chat by your own voice.
You can talk with message and message to message.
This application is a very good handy tool for you who think that it’s dull by E-mail or the partner is busy and might not be able to answer the phone or you who think that a live conversation on the phone is slightly scary such as a conversation in foreign language.

You can use this application as a voice message bulletin board or a foreign conversation class.
You can enjoy a voice chat according to the following instructions.
(1) Input your own information (e-mail address*, thumbnail, etc. )
Tap 'Done' button to login.
(2) Make a group. (Even two people is a group)
(3) Enroll members’ e-mail addresses* of the group .
(4) Send invitation to members of the group.
(5) The invited member becomes the member of the group immediately.
(6) Exchange voice messages and/or text messages between/among members.
(You can make up to 100 groups and up to 100 people can participate in one group.)

*The invited members can invite other persons.
*Each member can withdraw from the group
*it is available immediately without registering the personal information except the email because this SNS is not of the fixed server type.
