New app automatically texts your girlfriend

[Jazzy]

A new app aims to allow users to spend more time with their 'bros' by sending automated messages to their girlfriends.

The BroApp, which is available in the Android Play Store, allows users to send a series of automated lovey dovey messages.

Australian developers Factorial Products Ltd. describe the app as "smart" and a key way of "maximising your relationship".

But it's not clear with it's stunningly sexist - or a clever parody.

Users are asked to type in their girlfriend's name and number when they first download the app, and after that it's up to them to write the messages.

The app even detects when the user is at his girlfriend's house by identifying her WiFi network, and doesn't send any messages then - which would blow the whole cover.

It also detects when the user has messaged his girlfriend in real time, or she has messaged him, and cancels any pre-written texts to avoid arousing suspicion.

Finally, there is a 'Girlfriend Intrusion Detector', which the developers claim will send any inquisitive girlfriends to a list of gifts the user was planning to buy her if she tries to get into BroApp.

It is apparently only set up to send texts to women and is selling at £1.49 in the Android Play Store. Developers say they hope an iPhone version will be available soon.

How hard is it to text someone while you're hanging out with someone else, its not like your undivided attention will be dedicated to your "bro's" for the entire time.

If I ever caught someone doing this to me, I would flush their phone down the nearest toilet.

If the relationship involves someone who is either that jealous or that suspicious or that controlling or even that needy of "their time" that for some reason they believe they need this ap, then the relationship probably isn't going to work out.

My comment: WTF

Anyone who uses that app,probably spends more time with his bro's then his girlfriend.

Ergo move in with your bro's

This sounds awesome and extremely rude, of course.
But it's pretty feature rich by the sound of it.

That made me smirk, it's stupid, yes, but it provided me with a little bit of amusement, possibly because how elaborate they got with it.
