Introducing Gäng
One chat for you, your friends and Dopppel. Plan the weekend, pick a place to eat, and keep everyone on the same page.
Group chats are fun until it is time to decide something. Ten people, forty messages, and still no plan.
Today we are adding Gäng to Dopppel. (You say it "gang".) A Gäng is a group chat with your friends and Dopppel in it. You talk to each other the way you always do. When the group needs help, you call on Dopppel, and it answers everyone at once.
Dopppel joins when you call it
Dopppel does not jump into every message. Type @Dopppel when you want it, and ask. It can find a place to eat or check the weather for Saturday. It can also turn a messy thread into a short list of who is doing what.
@Dopppel we are 6 people, Saturday night, somewhere cheap near the river. Ideas?
Dopppel
Here are three places near the river that fit six people and a small budget.
Want me to look up their menus?
You can tag a friend the same way. Type @ and their name, and they get a ping.
What it makes belongs to everyone
When Dopppel answers in a Gäng, the whole group sees it. Ask for a packing list or a list of who brings what, and everyone has the same one. Nobody has to copy it and send it around.
A nudge for the whole group
Need a nudge before the big day? Ask Dopppel to remind everyone. The reminder is for the whole Gäng. A card shows up in the chat, so each person can say they are in, or no thanks.
Your private things stay private
A Gäng is a shared room, so Dopppel acts like a guest there. It cannot see your memories or your reminders in a Gäng. Those stay in your own chats. What you ask for in the room is for the room.
Start a Gäng in a minute
Make a free account, then tap New Gäng in the side menu and pick up to 15 friends.
Gäng is free, like everything in Dopppel.
