Nearby Live 1.38.8.2
In order to be able to contact other users and exchange messages, share thoughts and various types of content, social networks and dedicated applications came into being.
One of the tools that Windows Phone users can rely on when it comes to such activities is Nearby Live, a neat utility that offers a simple and straightforward manner of meeting people and starting conversations.
Appealing look and smooth layout
The app offers a very nice interface in which the nicely designed graphics are complemented by a smart arrangement of the commands and functions, which are all kept at hand and easy to reach.
The navigation inside the various sections and menus of Nearby Live is smooth and without visible delays or other kind of glitches. As is to be expected, you will have to wait for a split second when refreshing the main stream so allow the most recently added posts to be included as well.
A visible annoyance is represented by the ad banners that appear in the lower side of the screen and keep on changing. Removing them completely can only be done by purchasing a Gold membership, which also has numerous other advantages.
Explore and meet people on the fly
With Nearby Live you can create a new account or sign in with your existing Facebook account and immediately you will be able to browse the list of users who are also looking to meet new people.
Before starting a conversation with someone you can check out their profile to see what information they chose to make public about themselves and see if they are a good match for what you are looking for.
See who is near you and willing to get in touch
The main asset of this application is the ability to detect other Nearby Live users who are close to your current location and you can view just how close to you they are, so there is even the possibility to meeting in person if both of you agree to this.
The built-in search function is a neat addition, as it allows you to find users that might match your interests. Posting interesting pictures or personal thought inside the "World Stream" section or commenting to what others have added is also a way of getting into conversations with people.

Nearby Live offers a lot of handy features inside a friendly and easy to use package, so anyone can find people to talk to and have a good time. |
Security7
There are many system areas in which this application looks, some of them unrelated to its functionality and it also collects a lot of personal data. |
Battery5
The power consumption is considerable if the utility is left running, as it takes up a lot of energy even while it is kept the background. |
Price9
The basic membership offers a pretty decent set of features, but those who want more and also are willing to pay for extra points can do so from within the app. |
Compatibility10
Nearby Live is suitable for use on most Windows Phone devices out there as it only requires version 7.5 or higher of the OS. |
