Description

What is WalkBy
WalkBy is an application for Android that replicates Streetpass functionality of the Nintendo 3DS. With WalkBy it is possible to exchange drawings with other people who also have the app installed. As soon as you pass another person with the app, your drawing will be exchanged with the other person's drawing. The goal of WalkBy is to encourage people to go outside more.

Is WalkBy secure? and how do I prevent inappropriate content from being exchanged?
WalkBy has a feature which prevents random people from sending notes to you. Its called the friend filter. When enabling the friend filter WalkBy will only exchange notes with people in your friendlist. Friends are easy to add and both people must have added each other to be able to exchange notes.
Besides the friend filter WalkBy also has other systems in place to prevent people from sending inappropriate content, and further improvements in the system are planned.

How does WalkBy work
WalkBy uses location and bluetooth connection to quickly detect other nearby phones and quickly exchange messages. The moment of discovery to exchange messages can take between 10 and 60 seconds depending on the circumstances.

Why did you make this
I made it because I thought it was a fun challenge... or.. I might've been bored as well.

It does not work
Make sure that both the person you want to exchange and yourself have disabled the friends filter or added each other. The exchange can take between 10 and 60 seconds depending on the circumstances

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

3 ★i love the idea, but the drawing pad is too unweildy to be able to make anything meaningful, and even after struggling through it, turning the device sideways erases all your work without a warning, and kts ogten impossible to save due to the menu button dissapearing. Needs fleshed out, but once it is i expect it will be really cool
