ABOUT THE PROJECT
Immediate information about everyone around you.
WhaaBaam is a unique app that instantly captures the personal profiles of anyone within your immediate surroundings. It provides you immediate answers regarding where they are from, what they do for a living, married or single, contact information, and so much more.
The app works on the premise that each user can be anywhere in the world and potentially use this app to find out immediate information about each other in close proximity. You can share as much or as little about yourself to those around you.
We all want immediate information about those we meet without having to ask — and Whaabaam is the answer to all of these requirements.
