Social
media has revolutionised free speech, but a new forum for discussion is set to
overhaul the idea of sharing opinions and ideas. ‘Debate’ is a brand new free app,
available on iOS, designed for the opinionated public, providing them with an
outlet for their views.
A
sphere for friends and strangers to come together to debate the topics of the
day, the app removes the need for endless postings on other social media sites
where opinions are often overlooked or met with animosity. The app is designed
to be a safe space away from other social media sites, allowing for healthy
debate with a friendly tone. It’s easy to share thoughts via text or video, and
the platform is set to take the country by storm as the actions of world
leaders and icons divides opinions across the globe.
Mark
Forster, CEO and founder of Debate, said, “Technology has completely changed
the way we absorb information, and of course the way we discuss it too.
Although generic social media platforms are great for getting views out there,
they can often get lost or are met with abuse from other users who disagree.
And that is where Debate comes in. We have designed the app specifically to
provide a relevant and active outlet for discussing hot topics with like-minded
people – from all backgrounds, of all ages and genders.”
The
app is simple to use, packed with some great features. Users create a profile,
complete with a photo, key characteristics and comments, and from there are
able to record their views in the form of text or video responses to let others
know why they feel a certain way, share opinions on social media to entice
their friends to engage, follow others with similar interests, and of course
view the results of their debates.
Results
are broken down into specific groups - by gender, age range, and even region.
This allows users to see whether their views are mirrored by their peers, or
whether they fit into a different group.
Debates
change on a regular basis depending on the burning topics of the day, ensuring
the platform is always alive with the latest talking points. Discussion topics
are always broken down into themes, allowing users to only browse the topics of
interest.
Available
now through the app store, Debate will certainly be a welcome outlet for those
who enjoy sharing opinions and getting into gritty debates about subjects they
are passionate about.
