Bondee App: The Latest Metaverse Game

3 February 2023
Bondee App The Latest Metaverse Game

If you're on social media practically every day, it doesn't matter if you're just online for an hour or 10 hours each day, chances are you've come across a legion of viral posts in your social media feed about an app that took the Asian internet by storm in the first month of the year.

 

It's Bondee — a digital world provider that has become a source of escapism among people beset by an overwhelmingly stressful real world. If you're curious as to what makes Bondee so special and popular, let Lumina Homes walk you through the metaverse world that many have since entered and enjoyed.

 

 

What is Bondee App?

Launched on January 17, Bondee is the latest craze on the internet. It is a new social networking platform developed by Singapore-based tech firm Metadream. The social networking app comprises a virtual world where users can create avatars and design rooms that resemble what they have, or want to have, in real life.

 

Just like other social media apps, Bondee contains social elements that make it possible to share virtual moments with friends in the metaverse world. Bondee is a massive sensation in Southeast Asian countries, which topped Social Networking rankings on the App Store in the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand, according to a report by NME.

 

Bondee users can visit friends' spaces, meet random users, customize their own rooms, and simply live a mundane life in the metaverse space. It has similarities with social simulation video games such as Animal Crossing and The Sims.

 

 

How to Download or Install Bondee App?

To join the hype, you can install Bondee through the App Store for iPad and iPhone users. For Android customers, the app can be downloaded via the Google Play Store. You can use and enjoy the Bondee app for free, though some items require in-app purchases via B-beans, Bondee's in-app currency.

 

While it's not a secret, it is also worth mentioning that the social media app contains elements of NFTs (non-fungible tokens). This means that the blockchain elements will be integrated into the virtual reality game, though Metadream hasn't disclosed when this will happen and what specifically will Bondee's NFT offerings be.

 

How to Use Bondee: A Quick Guide

Once you downloaded and installed the Bondee app, you will be asked to set up an account to start. After entering your phone number and a password, that's when you can create your digital twin or 3-D avatar. You can dress yourself in outfits that suit your personality, and add accessories, appliances, and other miscellaneous items.

 

After creating your own avatar, the next thing to customize is your room. This is what excites users the most before they can even start. This part allows you to design your own room to your liking, from furniture, posters, picture frames (you can upload real photos of you and your family from your gallery!), and other display objects.

 

 

How Do I Interact With My Friends?

After customizing your personal space, the next best step is to enable virtual interactions with people by adding your friends — with 50 as the limit — who are also on the platform. To invite your friends, you can search for their User ID or upload their QR codes.

 

Once you successfully added your virtual companions, you can start messaging them, which is a core feature of most social networking sites. What is more, you can be in control of your avatar's emotions and actions. You can chill out on a comfy beanbag, mimic an office setting and sit on your swivel chair, or go indoor picnic, among many others. Want to bond with your friends? Dance the night away with your coolest moves, or hang out with friends in the great outdoors!

 

To check on friends you've added, there is a "Neighbors" tab where you can see their customized rooms and what they are up to at the moment. Beyond the rooms, there is also a "sailing" feature where you can explore unchartered waters in the digital world and meet strangers you could then befriend and interact with. Along your journey in the open sea, be on the lookout for floating notes that may contain gifts, such as accessories and miscellaneous items, that you can win.

 

 

So, What's With the Hype?

While the creative concept behind Bondee isn't new, the app's well-received launching to the Asian market could not be more appropriate and timely. It is not a social media app presenting itself as a Facebook or Twitter alternative, but rather as a casual video game where friends who are physically not with each other can socialize and bond in a virtual space. It is a source of escapism for users who want to shy away from negative vibes and just chill out on a different virtual reality sans the sources of stress, be it depressing domestic news or unending social media drama.

 

Furthermore, unlike the usual social media sites we're used to, Bondee has its own unique way of providing a news feed of friends' statuses. Instead of presenting you with an entire timeline of people sharing their activities and thoughts, Bondee users will display speech bubbles to publish status updates. On the homepage, you will see glimpses of your friends' virtual activities and whereabouts.

 

If you're a very social media person, Bondee is just one of the many social apps that are worth hopping on the bandwagon! Know more about the immensely popular app through Bondee official website.
