Google to launch Neighbourly app across India, here are the 15 key features || Commerce News Guruji

Have a question about what’s happening nearby? Which is the safest park for kids in this area? Any affordable maths private tuition around here? Any best ayurvedic chemist nearby?

Local questions like these come up all the time. But they’re hard to answer, especially in big cities. And when you ask your local group chat for help, you find it’s noisy and only reaches the people you know.

That's why Google built Neighbourly, the location-based app that connects you to your community so you can get answers you trust, share your own advice, and stay in-the-know together. Neighbours have the most up-to-date, relevant, and credible insight about what’s happening nearby.

Key Features of Neighbourly app:

You can ask your entire community all at once in a simple Q&A format.
Just ask your question, and it’s routed to a community of neighbours that can help.
You can also speak your question into the app, just like you were talking to a neighbour. The app uses Google’s expert speech recognition technology to transcribe your questions in eight Indian languages, so you can ask your neighbour a question in a language you are comfortable with.
Find relevant questions where you can advise or assist by sharing answers and advice that help your community.
You can follow questions in which you are interested by tapping bell icon to the questions to get relevant updates back as your neighbours share answers and support their community.
Each answer will help a neighbour find credible information they care about.
The more you advise, the more you’re recognized for your insights. Swipe back and forth and find relevant questions to gain local insight and get credible knowledge.
You can even share your favourite answers with your friends on social media.
Find, ask and answer questions without sharing all of your personal information. Keep personal details like your phone number, full name and other contact information completely private when using the app.
Your profile only contains a small profile picture and your first name — the only information your community will see or find when you ask a question or share an answer.
And your neighbour can never message you directly.
You can block any user, if you fell so.
Neighbourly is the human, helpful, local way to ask and answer questions about what’s happening in your neighbourhood.
Together, your answers can help make your community stronger and feel even more neighbourly.
