Poppin’ Bottles with Little Green Men: Sonar for Android Launches Today!

We spill a lot of ink here telling you about team Sonar, who we are, what we’re up to, and you can see we’re a pretty diverse crew aboard this ol’ submarine. That means it’s extra incredible when we all rally around a super exciting project like the one we’re unveiling today. And so it’s with great pleasure that we announce the release of Sonar in Google Play!

Completely redesigned for the platform and slick-as-can-be, Sonar’s new Android app brings the great friend-finding functionality of Sonar’s here-now social network, and adds a brand new Friends tab, where you can find and chat with any of your Sonar Friends even when they’re not nearby. We’re also adding localization in 6 languages. What a great day to invite all your friends—especially Android-owning international friends!—to join you on Sonar. We’ll wait… go ahead.

Ahem.

So if you’re in New York, swing by Sonar Intergalactic HQ today and you’ll find us raising a glass (or many) to a huge milestone and team effort we’re all incredibly proud to reveal. And be sure to keep an eye out for a special friend hanging around in the Sonar app over the next few days; if you’re seeing little green men, trust us: it’s not just your imagination!

Also, a huge thank you and admiring shout out to two superstar devs who helped out: Mark and Yang!

Happy Sonaring, iPhone and Android users alike!
