Two young Nigerians have launched a new social media app known as ‘TheNewGram’.
The social media app which was launched on the 1st of August, 2020, was created by Aliyu Ishaq, Chief Executive Officer of TheNewGram and Hassan Abubakar, the Chief Operating Officer.
According to the young talented Nigerians, in an interview yesterday in Abuja, TheNewGram is a social media application that enables people to connect to each other in communities, share videos and audios, stickers and files, blogging and also grow business.
He added that the app was built with the provision of 10 different languages which include English, Arabic, French, German, Italian, Russia, Spanish, and Turkish languages.
According to them, the app has many features such as videos, audios, files, stickers and can also be used by bloggers.
“Some of the benefits of the app include being able to chat, share videos and files. The App is safe because more authentication has been put in place to protect end to end encryption of private chat between users,” Ishaq said.
He stated that the app is built in a way to protect users’ information and privacy.
“We have privacy settings which is built for the purpose. User phone numbers are not also visible to other users and personal information is not visible.
“We have the admin panel for the team use. They can see any post and other things but cannot see the chat conversations. We can delete videos, pictures if there is a report and accounts can also be deleted. Also, users’ pages can also be modified. Misinformation, fake news can be handled and taken down when users report issues and we confirm it as fake. Same goes for gory contents”, Ishaq also said.
