Rawr is one of those messaging apps for youngsters that I don’t get

In the world of unusual messaging apps, Rawr Messenger is one of the more unconventional ones. It combines messaging and what looks like the Xbox avatars. But the unusual bit is you can chat with friends and random people with your avatar and input things like #kick to kick your friend or the person your chatting with in the crotch. It’s not all that brutal, though, you can prompt it to do things like #hug and strangely enough you can #twerk, too. There are other things like being able to pull out props and even make out with them. Both you and the person you’re having the conversation with can see your avatars executing the actions.

The apps version of Chatroulette isn’t as scary or possibly open to abuse as picture sharing can only be done with your friends. It’s currently out on iOS but we can’t say yet if it’s coming out on Android.
