The American company Apple has been removed its app store an American app that promoted private parties during the coronavirus pandemic.
Vybe Together it’s an app to calls itself a “private community to find, join, and host parties.”
A recent video on its TikTok account claimed it held secret parties every weekend.
Although the Vybe together accounts on the platform, as well as its own website, has been taken down, the company vows to return.
Some terrible people built a whole app for finding and promoting Covid-unsafe large, indoor house parties and they’re using TikTok to market it to millions of people,” The New York Times reporter, Taylor Lorenz, tweeted, sharing screenshots and a TikTok promotional video.
The original tweet on Twitter is that the video showed people dancing inside a venue, and it advertised a New Year’s Eve party in New York.
But in New York State, indoor and outdoor gatherings are limited to 10 people, and bars and restaurants are closed indoors in New York City.
The app Vybe Together has not responded to a request for comment.
However, a page on its now-removed website said that we are aware that Covid is a major health problem having large scale parties is very dangerous.
That is why we don’t support that. But Vybe is a compromise, no big parties but small gatherings. We could be living, at least a little during these times with Vybe.”
