Meet LIVR, a new social media app that is specifically designed with people who love to get drunk in mind.
Before saying, “Oh boy, another social media universe to be apart of so it can eat my free hours away,” let me explain just how much you will love this app by the end of the year.
First off, LIVR doesn’t so much eat your free hours away as it does make them more fun, by involving alcohol. The app’s premise is that people love to share their wild drunken nights on Facebook both as they are occurring, and they love to be able to look back on them later to reminisce with their friends. What people don’t love is that often times their mother and their boss are able to see these nights as well by default, unless the poster is a functioning-drunk who is able to figure out Facebook’s and other services’ enigmatic privacy settings in their stupor.
LIVR seeks to offer users a safe domain where they can “live life honestly and have a great time doing it.” You see, the network is only accessible when you are drunk, because you have to blow a .08 or higher into a breathalyzer attachment for your smartphone to be able to use the app.
Once deemed “drunk”, LIVR offers a variety of services that serve to make your night one of those wild nights where you somehow ended up going to a club with a middle-aged Australian rugby team.
There are four main services from the main menu that can help you get there.
First, there is the truth or dare function. Essentially, this gives you access to a crowdsourced bank of the best truth and dare questions that you and your friends never thought of.
Know you want to get drunk, but don’t know where you want to get drunk? LIVR’s Hotspot feature will show you a map with a range of realtime drinking data of each location, such as who is drinking, how many people are drinking, and how drunk they are, which is all gathered via the simple act of others accessing the app with the breathalyzer.
Want to meet that Australian rugby team? Drunk Dial allows you to randomly call another LIVR user near your location so you can have a passionate drunken conversation, become best friends, and meet up with them later.
The short of it is that LIVR has the potential to turn any ordinary night into a night that you will either remember for years or not remember at all. Best of all, if you happen to be ashamed of any sharing you might have done in the moment, there is the Blackout button, which will erase all of your activity from the previous night should you happen to wake up in a less-than-familiar place cradling your brain, who is likely very angry at you.
