Some quotes
- THE NEW PAPER : "The idea to bring the kampung spirit to a digital platform came to them in a bar."
- THE STRAITS TIMES: "The concept is simple: Users post comments or photos of anything they find interesting, which appears on a map as a feecha - a speech bubble-shaped cartoon creature."
- HARDWARE ZONE: "The potential uses are vast - from foodies sharing pictures of delicious food at a particular restaurant to shoppers alerting others of a great sale at a shopping mall."
- WIRED MAGAZINE: "feecha is a unique app that enables you to find 'what's hot now' in your location by screening content from all over the web."
- TECH IN ASIA: "It offers something different from traditional news reader apps. Since it’s a location-first news reader app, users also can discover information that’s not necessarily news-related. For example, when reading a food review tagged to my neighborhood, I learned about a cool ice cream place about 400 meters from my house that I had never heard of before."
- VULCAN POST: "Jaded by throngs of irrelevant posts? Feecha might just be the solution you need."
- YAHOO!: "The potential is undeniable."
- STUFF MAGAZINE: "An amazing Singaporean app." 5 out of 5 stars.

This app needs an overhaul. Most of the posts are pointless and doesn't serve any purpose to bind the community together.

There is nothing wrong with it but with no one else in my area (50 mile radius), makes this app kinda useless.

Great way to read local news and to find out about what's happening in the "kampong". Additionally, when I plan or am visiting somewhere new in Singapore, feecha presents to me what are the hot spots and happening in the area, and what people are talking about at that moment! Interface is beautiful & well-designed too

Has improved hugely in recent revisions. I'd like to see it rotate with the phone and feel a bit more snappier in general but otherwise it's a great app. Could be the next big thing with a little polish! Keep up the great work.

I use feecha to see what events are happening in my area, good food to try, deals to take advantage of and news from the usual suspects like Channel News Asia and The New Paper...and even "underground" ones like The Real Singapore. The cool thing about feecha is that you can see all those things by neighbourhood, so it's like a news reader just for Tiong Bahru, a news reader just for Holland Village, etc.

My suggestion is an option to make the map bigger...map a bit too small to use. Otherwise cool app, got useful content.

Very useful app which you have to try if you live in Singapore or you're planning to visit this country. A lot of informations on just one place - your android device! Very easy to use, you can locate all news on map, scroll between them, post news, write comments, choose which news you want to get and from which part of Singapore, also you can simply share news on social networks or send text message, etc. Definitely a must have application! Hope, soon it will be available for other countries. Keep up the good work!
