Not sure it’s a good idea with everybody snitching on everyone.  What next?  Report if someone is not a Communist sympathizer?  Scary really. 

Exactly, this is what my mindset as well? I don't think this is a good options for citizens to reports someone and it could led to abuse. Imagine if you have a enemy and wanted to get back, you can just used this tool to humiliate him/her.

This is one of the worst invention that I have seen, it just brings more cons in the long run. And it also shows how government really wanted to spy on everyone, very very scary and dangerous, imho.

This app will be useful for many. If it will send a notification to the phone that you owe your friend some money-it will be very cool.
In the 21st century, many people are afraid to remind a person about the debt, this application may fix everything
