You might not be aware of the great conversations and gatherings happening in your own neighborhood, which is what the Peacock app looks to help connect you to using intuitive, location-based software. The Peacock app works quite simply: go onto the app to view the conversations or "rooms" as the brand calls them in your neighborhood. From here, you can choose to join in on the conversation or even host one yourself.
Users can "yell" at each other on the Peacock app and effectively help to connect with those around them in a more orderly fashion. As you interact with other users on the Peacock app, you'll automatically get points that will increase your profiles prowess and might even score you a couple IRL (in real life) friends.
