## Description

Private messaging and voice calls for your community. Groups, direct messages, invite codes, and admin tools. Sign in with Apple — no phone number needed.

PapaChat is a private messaging app for closed communities. Create or join a community, chat with members in groups or direct messages, and manage everything with a clean, distraction-free interface.

COMMUNITIES

- Invite members with shareable invite codes (24-hour expiry)
- Search and request to join existing communities
- Admin tools: approve/reject join requests, remove members, create groups
- Leave a community anytime — admin role auto-transfers to the next member

GROUP & DIRECT MESSAGING

- Real-time group chat — every community gets a General group automatically
- Direct messages — tap any member in the People directory to start a private conversation
- Read receipts — double blue checkmarks when your message is read
- Message reactions — long-press to react with emoji
- Reply to messages — swipe to quote and respond
- Delete your own messages — a placeholder preserves conversation context
- Archive chats to tidy up without losing history
