# Trial Pilot

{% hint style="info" %}
This page will outline the trial pilot or V1 of Matar App.
{% endhint %}

***

We have launched **Version 1 of Matar App on Android devices in March 2023 to a select group of partners for free.** V1 was our pilot in understanding whether such a peer-to-peer model, designed as an audio Quora initially, can facilitate impactful community learning.

***

#### In the first version of the application, the users can:

1. Listen to prompts (questions) categorized by different topics relevant to their community.
2. Anonymously record their own responses or listen to community-upvoted answers of their peers to each prompt.
3. React (Like/dislike) responses, view bookmarked (liked) responses to questions and also maintain a history of their recorded statements to listen to later.

***
