Features

Everything in Netoo is built around one idea - your village is already the group.

Getting Started

Walk Right In

Most social media and community apps make you work to belong — find the group, ask to join, wait for approval.

Netoo skips all of that. Select your village or locality and you're already in.

Look Around Before You Join

See what's happening — no account required

  • Select any village or locality — no login needed
  • Instantly view public posts, announcements, feeds, scheme information, and the contacts directory for that village group.
  • Want to post, reply, or make an announcement ? That's the point where you'll need to register

Registration, Without the Hassle

A few details, no OTP, no email verification

  • Just tell us who you are — no OTP or email confirmation required
  • Add a profile photo and your role or occupation, visible to others in your village's contacts directory
  • Up to 4 accounts per device, so a shared family phone isn't a limitation
  • You must be 18 or older to register

Actively Participate in your Village Group!

Once you are registered, you can do lots more

  • Communicate with the entire Village group
  • Vote others posts.
  • Chat one-on-one with other users in the Village group
  • Control what you can see by hiding or unhiding content.
Communication

Every Way to Say It

Not every message needs the same weight. A shop's opening hours don't need the same format as a village meeting, and a private word to a neighbour is different again. Netoo gives each one its own place. Netoo supports three different types of messaging.

Public Posts - Say Once, Reach Everyone

A public post to your whole village group

  • Attach a photo, video, or document
  • Perfect for business updates, locality events, weddings, or anything your village should know
  • Anyone can reply privately, continuing the conversation one-to-one
  • Visible to the group for 30 days

Public Announcements - Quick, Visual, To the Point

For updates that don't need a whole post

  • Choose from ready-made visuals for common updates — temple timings, shop open or closed, the milkman on his way
  • Or write a short custom announcement with your own picture or audio. Announcements are meant to be short and Netoo enforces that.
  • Seen by everyone in the village group, visible for 7 days

One-to-One, Just Between You and Another Person

A private conversation with anyone in your village group

  • Message any registered member of your village directly
  • Supports the same attachments as public posts
  • Visible only to the two of you, for 60 days

Live, In the Moment

Real-time video for your whole village

  • Any registered user can start a live broadcast
  • It can be watched live by the rest of the village group
  • Configured to 4 minutes per session, and not recorded — once it ends, it's gone

Something More Specific in Mind?

We're building this along with villages, not just for them — shaped by their inputs.

  • Want a specific icon or visual for your announcements — like a particular message or visual indication?
  • Write to us and we'll look at adding it
  • Netoo grows based on what real villages actually ask for
Information

Everything Worth Knowing

Beyond conversation, Netoo keeps your village informed — news from various sources, scheme information that actually affect you, and the people who make up your community.

Curated News, In One Place

  • Netoo pulls updates from known government and news [1] handles automatically
  • No need to follow anyone or check another app — it's all inside Netoo

Control & Account

Your Village, Your Rules

Netoo adapts to you — where you live, what you see, and how your profile represents you — not the other way around.

Working Away? Stay Connected

Move between your workplace and your native village anytime

  • Traveling for work, studies, or family? Switch to that village and join its group instantly
  • Switch back to your native village whenever you're ready
  • You're part of one village group at any time — don't miss out on your village gupshup and happenings.

You Decide What You See

Hide, unhide, and control your view — separately, for every kind of content

  • Hide a person or any message you don't want to see — unhide anytime and immediately
  • Control what you can see or hide separately - for public posts, announcements, private messages, and feeds
  • Report anything that shouldn't be there
  • Block a user if you dont want to have any communication or visibility. It works both ways.

Your Profile, You Decide

Easy to set up, easy to update

  • Add or change your profile photo anytime
  • Update your role, occupation, or other details as they change
  • Change your location from the profile page also
  • Unhide hidden or blocked users to see their messages again

Easy access to Settings

Language, support, and everything you signed up to

  • Useful for wider announcements, local business promotions, or news that matters beyond one village
