Kaihon

Athatrunsitself

Kaihon is a community app for Android, in English and Arabic. Every community has ranks, committees and rules, and its own members run it.

The leaderboard

Every rank has a limit

One founder, two co-founders, five leaders, ten admins, twenty curators. Nobody reaches a rank before its level, and only with a clean record.

House of Art is a sample community we built to photograph the app. Its empty seats wait for members who reach their level.

Enter your Google email

We send you an email to confirm it. When the test starts, the Google Play link arrives at the same address.

Questions before you join

When does the test start?

Once the server is online and the app is signed. We give no date, but we write to you on the day.

Why my Google email?

Kaihon signs you in with Google only. With this address Google Play adds you to the test, and the app knows you and gives you your title.

Does it work on iPhone?

Not in version 1. Version 1 is for Android only, and iPhone comes in a later version.

Is it free?

Yes. Nothing is for sale in version 1, and wallet coins are earned by showing up and have no money value.

What do you do with my email?

We write to you about the test and the launch, and share it with nobody. Brevo keeps it for us, and every email has a link to leave the list.

Can someone take my title after me?

Several testers can choose the same title, but nobody gets one after the test. The app will also refuse any title that copies its name or colour.
