**mortalpings** is a hyperlocal messaging platform designed to connect people instantly within their surroundings.
Unlike traditional messaging apps, mortalpings is built around the idea of **time-bound** and **location-based** communication.
With mortalpings, your messages:
• 🕒 **Live for a limited time** — Messages automatically vanish after a set duration (1–24 hours).
• 📍 **Stay within your area** — Only people within your chosen radius (500m → 10km) can see your post.
• 📸 **Show the reality** — Attach **Photos** to give immediate context to your pings.
• 🙈 **Remain anonymous BUT accountable** — Each device / app install is assigned a stable UID. You also have a human-friendly displayId (e.g., MP-12345) that appears in the app. The UID lets us link actions for moderation (ban or mute) but does not reveal any personal identity information.
• 📶 **Work even during patchy connectivity** — If you’re offline, your message (and attachments) are saved locally and auto-sent once the network returns.
