Users Clock Total Distance of 63,179,971 Miles – Equivalent to 2,537 Trips Around the Earth

MUMBAI, India , Sept. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Explurger, an AI-powered intuitive social media app that lets users connect and share their moments with friends and family online, has crossed several exciting milestones in a short span of time. The gamified social media app has expanded its footprint to over 50 countries, been downloaded by 1.3 Million users, and seen a three-fold increase with over 900,000 new members being added in just three months itself.

Explurger App Highlights:

  • Downloaded over a million times from the App Store and Play Store
  • Gained over 900,000 new users in three months
  • Over 226 Million people have been invited by registered users
  • Users are on average spending 15-minutes on the app, which is at par with other popular social media apps
  • Over 612,897 'Explurger-ins' (location check-ins) have been posted by users so far via the app
  • Users have cumulatively covered 63,179,971 miles, which is equivalent to circumnavigating the globe more than 2,537 times
  • A total of 190,794 rewards have been accessed through the app

Till date, over 75% of users who installed Explurger have synced their contacts with it, showing that they trust and enjoy this social media app and want their friends to join them as well. This has resulted in over 226 million invites being sent out by registered Explurger users to those who are not yet on this platform.

Jitin Bhatia, Founder & CEO, said, "Our sign-up rate increased substantially post launch in June. We are seeing higher traction in the engagement, with increased number of posts per day. We appreciate the enthusiasm of our user community, which has steadily risen, and crosses one million download mark in less than 3-months. There is no doubt the numbers will grow exponentially as our users continue inviting more people to come create thriving travel communities on our platform."

Explurger also has an impressive 80% sign-up rate with an average engagement time of over 15 minutes, which is at par with other global social media apps. That's not all, the app boasts of a 90% retention rate of users who have travelled over 1,000 miles and have AI-based travelogues in at least three cities. 

"The Bucket List has also turned out to be a popular feature in Explurger. If you see someone Explurge-in at an interesting place, you can add that place to your Bucket List. This isn't your run-of-the-mill bookmarking feature. The app will automatically remind you when you are in that area. So even if it happens after years and you have forgotten, Explurger will notify you that you had saved it in your list," shared Sonu Sood, co-founder, Explurger.

Explurger has been selected by Google as one of the top 100 promising startups and top 30 mobile startups in India. An AI-powered social media app with a gamified user experience, it lets users connect and share their moments with friends and family online. The app goes beyond just sharing pictures and videos, it uses cutting-edge AI to automatically create travelogues of the memories users share on their profile. Whenever a user creates a post or 'Explurge-in', the app's AI updates the Travelogue, so every mile, city, country, pub, and club gets added.

Each user's Explurger level goes up as in-app engagement increases, leading to more recognition on the platform. Users accrue rewards based on their activity, which in turn can be redeemed later. Currently, Explurger has more than 40 top brands on board as part of its rewards system and over 190,794 rewards have been accessed by users.

Explurger has been part of the Appscale Academy, a growth and development programme launched by MeitY and Google, where Indian start-ups are mentored on building high-quality apps for a global audience. The social media start-up was also recently recognized by Google in its "Top 10 Innovative Apps in India" list.
