New York: (RightNow) A unique messaging app ‘Roost’ is gaining popularity among social media users. This app offers users the experience of sending messages at the speed of a pigeon.

Roost is available on both iOS and Android platforms. It provides users with a unique experience of message delivery according to the speed of birds or other animals.

Since its launch in April, Roost has captured users’ attention. By August 18, its user base had exceeded 7 lakh.

The growing desire for a slow-paced lifestyle among youth is driving the app’s popularity. This trend reflects a move away from screens and towards a simpler life.

It is noteworthy that Roost is not the only app of its kind. Another app called ‘Carrier Pigeon’ was also introduced in April. The creators of both apps have claimed ignorance of each other’s ideas.
