Rippler

Client: Enkibyte Technologies FZE

iOS app for asking your contacts — and getting answers you can trust. No spam, no ads, no strangers.

Overview

Rippler is a private social Q&A app from Enkibyte Technologies FZE. We helped ship the iPhone experience now live on the App Store: mobile-number onboarding, Ask and Answer feeds among mutual contacts, Create Ripple with urgency levels (Normal / Urgent / Critical), optional anonymity, question expiry, and chat with photo, video, audio, or location. The product is built so Rippler only works between people who are mutually saved as contacts — preserving authenticity without public strangers in the feed. The app supports English and Arabic.

Challenge

People needed recommendations from people they already trust — not spammy public feeds full of strangers and ads.

Solution

A focused iOS product: contact-gated Ask/Answer flows, urgency and expiry controls, anonymous or visible posting, and in-thread media — so answers stay inside a trusted circle.

Results

  • Live on the App Store (Rippler — Ask Answer Assure)
  • Contact-only network — no spam, ads, or stranger feeds
  • English and Arabic support for a bilingual audience
