sosmedplus

User manual

Every horizon, mapped.

Read everything sosmedplus can do before you open the door. This is the same manual you will find inside the app.

Take the journey

Three horizons, one app

Every life has a horizon: the edge of what you can know, what you can make, and who can hear you. Each feature moves one of those lines.

Why a chain

On Misool, Raja Ampat, sasi is agreed by the whole village, blessed in prayer and marked with a board at the water’s edge. Everyone knows it, so everyone guards it — and the sea comes back full of life.

sosmedplus keeps its promises the same way. CYV — Coin of Your Voice — is what your posts, comments and contributions earn, and what you have received is never taken back. A public ledger turns that promise into one with many witnesses, held by no single party. NFTs carry their maker’s mark: every edition has its own serial number, and every resale sends 5% back to the creator.

  1. Today: your CYV balance lives in the app’s ledger; the CYV token and NFTs run on the Hedera testnet.
  2. Next: legal compliance and an independent audit, then CYV settles on Hedera mainnet.
  3. After that: a wallet whose keys only you hold.

Chapter 1Sign Up & Log In

Creating a New Account

Available on Android · Windows

To start using sosmedplus, you need to create an account first. Signing up is quick and the account is ready to use right away, with no extra email verification.

Sign-up is available in the Android app and the Windows app. The web version is for signing in only (see the "Web & Windows" chapter).

Steps

  1. On the start screen, tap "Daftar disini" (Sign up here) to switch to Sign-up mode.
  2. Enter a Username — the system checks availability as you type ("Username tersedia!" or "Username sudah dipakai"). A username needs at least 3 characters and may only contain letters, numbers, dots and underscores.
  3. Enter an active Email.
  4. Enter a Password (at least 8 characters, at most 64) and retype it in the "Ketik Ulang Password" field — both must match exactly.
  5. (Optional) Enter a Referral Code if another user invited you. The person who invited you earns CYV each time a friend signs up with their code. If the code is wrong or already used, your sign-up still succeeds.
  6. Tap the DAFTAR SEKARANG button. On success you will see "Daftar Berhasil! Silakan Login." and you are taken to Sign-in mode to log in with your new account.

Logging In

Once you have an account, just sign in with the email and password you registered. On web and Windows you can also sign in with a QR code from your phone (see the "Web & Windows" chapter).

Steps

  1. Fill in the Email and Password fields.
  2. (Optional) Tick "Ingat Saya" (Remember me) so the app remembers your login details and you do not have to type them again next time.
  3. Tap the MASUK (Sign in) button. On success you go straight to the Home screen.

Forgot Password

If you forget your password, you can reset it by email without any help from an admin.

Steps

  1. In Sign-in mode, tap the "Lupa Password?" (Forgot password?) link below the MASUK button.
  2. In the "Reset Password sosmedplus" box, enter your account email, then tap Kirim Link (Send link).
  3. Check your inbox — you will get a password-reset link from sosmedplus.
  4. Open that link on your phone; the app opens the Reset Password page automatically.
  5. Enter a new password and its confirmation (at least 6 characters, at most 64), then tap the save button. You are taken back to the Sign-in page to log in with your new password.

You can also change your password any time from Profile → Edit Profile → Account Security.

Special Note

If you sign up with an email that is already registered, the app shows an "Email Sudah Terdaftar" (Email already registered) pop-up with two choices: Forgot Password (if it is your account) or Login Now.

Chapter 2Membership & CYV Levels

CYV Tiers (Verified, Silver, Gold, Creator, Prime)

Tier badges appear on your profile and avatar, based on your CYV balance and your number of positive posts.

Tier order: Verified → Silver → Gold → Creator → Prime.

Verified: balance ≥3,000 CYV

Silver: balance ≥8,000 CYV

Gold: balance ≥15,000 CYV

Creator: balance ≥25,000 CYV + at least 100 positive posts

Prime: balance ≥50,000 CYV + at least 300 positive posts

These thresholds adjust automatically over time so they stay fair to reach in any era.

Once a tier is reached, its badge is NEVER lost even if your balance drops from spending in the Market/NFT — just keep your balance above the minimum (far lower than the threshold to rise a tier) so the badge stays lit. If it dips below the minimum, there is a 7-day grace period before the badge temporarily dims, and it lights up again automatically once your balance is topped up. While dimmed, Profile shows how much more CYV is needed to reactivate it.

CYV you have already received is never taken back.

Level Ladder 1–25 & the Avatar Ring

Besides the five tiers above, sosmedplus has a finer level ladder: each tier is split into 5 named steps, 25 levels in total. Your level shows in two places: the progress ring around your avatar (with the level number on its badge, also in lists, comments and other people's profiles), and the level text on the Profile page, for example "Level 7 · step name".

Step names per tier

  • Verified: First Voice → First Echo → Daily Rhythm → Known Presence → Verified Threshold
  • Silver: Steady Beat → Open Circle → Long Breath → Firm Ground → Silver Threshold
  • Gold: First Shine → Steady Stream → Deep Roots → Landmark → Gold Threshold
  • Creator: First Stroke → Steady Hand → Signature Style → Own Gallery → Creator Threshold
  • Prime: Rising Light → Reference Point → Momentum → Compass → Prime Threshold

On the Profile page you see the next step and how much more CYV (and how many positive posts, for Creator and Prime) is still needed. Once the last step is reached, "Level maksimal tercapai!" (Maximum level reached!) appears.

Difference from the tier badge: the tier badge is permanent (see above), while the level and ring are calculated from your current CYV balance — so they can drop if you spend your balance, and rise again as it is topped up. The threshold of each step also adjusts over time. Levels are only a progress display; they never reduce or take back CYV you have already received.

sosmedplus Membership

Available on Android

sosmedplus Membership is an optional subscription you can activate any time from Profile.

Benefits

  • An exclusive "Member" badge on your profile
  • A higher CYV balance ceiling — non-members have a cap on how much balance they can accumulate, members do not

How to subscribe

  1. Open the Profile tab
  2. On the card "Kamu belum jadi Member sosmedplus" (You are not a member yet), tap "Jadi Anggota" (Become a member)
  3. Complete the payment through Google Play

Once active, that card turns into the "Member" badge. Want to switch plans (monthly to yearly) or renew early? Tap "Kelola Langganan" (Manage subscription) on Profile — it opens the official Google Play page where you can manage your subscription any time.

Chapter 3Home

Main View & Follow/Xplor Mode

At the top of the Home screen is a floating glass bar with three elements: the menu icon (three lines — opens the drawer and shows a red badge when there are new notifications), the Follow / Xplor switch, and your profile photo on the right. Your photo is surrounded by a level-progress ring with the level number on its badge (see the Membership & CYV Level chapter).

Follow: shows posts from the accounts you follow, plus official admin announcements captioned "Penting" (Important).

Xplor: shows posts from many other users (discovery mode) — here every post by someone else also shows a short Follow button so you can follow them without opening their profile first.

Steps

  1. Tap Follow or Xplor to switch mode.
  2. Tap the profile photo at the top right to open your own profile.

Radio & Music (Tape Deck)

At the very top of the feed is a floating radio-style music player that plays songs while you scroll other posts. It has 3 song modes you can switch between:

  • sosmedplus Radio & Music — listen to favorite music from the shared collection.
  • Private Playlist — your own song collection.
  • Offline Warehouse — songs saved on your phone.

Steps

  1. Tap the GANTI MODE (Switch mode) button to move between the three modes above.
  2. Use the row of buttons on the player to choose a song source: HP (songs from your phone storage), Radio FM (streaming FM radio), Net (search free songs on the internet), AI (the sosmedplus AI-made song collection), and Playlist (playlists you made yourself).
  3. In Radio FM, find a station or podcast with the search box; local stations come from your location (allow location access), or pick the "Top Indo" tab.
  4. Tap the title/player area to minimize it into a small bar, and tap again to enlarge it.

Saving a song to your phone: the download icon on a song in the player saves it to the Offline Warehouse and also copies it to the app’s folder inside Music on your phone, so other music apps can play it too. On Windows the song goes to the Downloads folder, and on web it downloads through the browser. If the song is already there you are told, and it is not copied twice.

Stories

Right below the music player is the Story bar — photos, short videos or text statuses that appear temporarily in your friends' avatar circles, similar to stories in other social apps.

To create a Story

  1. Tap the Add Story circle at the left end of the bar.
  2. Choose a content type: Write a Status (Text), Pick from Gallery (photo/video), Photo from Camera, or Video from Camera (up to 30 seconds).
  3. (Optional) Tap Add Music to add background music, then set the story's duration (e.g. ½ song); for text stories you can also set the text position and alignment.
  4. Tap the send button to publish the Story.

To view someone else's Story

  1. Tap your friend's avatar circle to open their Story.
  2. If it is your own Story, you can see the list of viewers, save it to a profile Highlight (star icon), or delete it.
  3. For other people's Stories, you can reply through the message box at the bottom of the screen — the reply goes to that person's chat. You need to follow the account first to reply.

Highlights: on your profile you can create a new Highlight. Open your Story → tap the star → pick the target Highlight, and that Story is saved there.

Interacting with Posts

Every post card in the feed has a few standard actions in its bottom row.

  • Like — tap the heart icon to like; tap the number to see who liked.
  • Comment — tap the chat-bubble icon to open the comment box; tap the number to see who commented. Comments can include GIFs, stickers, attachments or a location via the attach button in the comment box, and replies are nested like a thread.
  • Repost — spreads that post again to your own feed (you are asked to confirm first).
  • Send — shares the post outside the app (WhatsApp, etc.) through the device's built-in share menu, with a direct link to the post.
  • Save (bookmark) — tap the bookmark icon to save the post to your saved collection.

Extra steps

  1. Tap the post's text/image area to open the detail (thread) page with all its comments.
  2. Tap the author's name or photo to open their public profile.
  3. Tap the three-dot icon at the top right of the card to open the menu: Edit and Delete (your own posts only), or Report (other people's posts).
  4. Videos in the feed play one at a time: the video you are looking at plays and the others pause automatically. Tap a video to open it full screen and swipe to move to the next one.

Content Categories

Below the profile bar is a swipeable row of category tabs: Posts, Holy Book, AI, Market, Travel, Education, Career, Technology, Motivation, Economy, National, Nusantara, Java, World, Sports, Health. The Posts tab is the main Home tab with the social feed above; the other tabs hold portal/news content for their themes (covered fully in their own chapters).

Tip: the category bar and top bar hide automatically when you scroll down to give more room, and come back when you scroll up.

Switching Sources, Back & Reload in Category Tabs

Almost every category tab has the same way to switch sources and navigate the web pages inside it.

  • Source chips: the row of chips at the top of the page. Swipe and tap a chip to switch platform/outlet. Each time you pick a chip, that source's page is loaded fresh from the start.
  • The "See all sources" grid button (the squares icon, at the end of the chip row): opens the list of all sources as a grid, then tap one to jump straight to it.
  • Back & Reload buttons: as soon as you open a follow-up page inside a site, two round buttons appear at the top left of the page. Back = go back one page, Reload = reload the page being shown. On web, "back" takes you to that source's starting page.
  • The phone's back button: goes back one page in the site being viewed first; once at the start page, it returns to the Posts tab.
  • Full screen: the square icon at the top right hides the top bars so the page has more room. The phone's back button exits full screen.

Chapter 5Chat & Calls

Conversation List & Groups

The Chat tab on the navbar shows all your conversations, grouped as Unread, Group Chats and All Conversations. Unread messages are marked with a red number badge on the navbar. The search box at the top looks for people, topics or files inside your messages.

To start a chat

  1. Open the Chat tab on the navbar.
  2. Tap a person's name (or find them with the search box) to open a private chat. If you do not follow each other, a warning appears.
  3. Type a message in the bottom field, then send.

To create a group

  1. In the Chat tab, tap "Buat Grup" (Create group).
  2. Name the group (the name has a length limit), then choose members. Only friends who follow you back (mutual follows) can be added to a group.
  3. Tap the create button. The group admin can add members later from the group info.

The menu at the top of the list also has "Tandai Semua Dibaca" (Mark all as read) to clear all unread badges at once.

Sending & Managing Messages

In private and group chats you can send more than plain text.

What you can send with the attach button:

  • Photos (from Gallery or Camera)
  • Videos (from Gallery or recorded live; private chat up to 30 MB, about 1–2 minutes)
  • Document files
  • Location (the map can be opened in Google Maps)
  • Voice notes (hold the microphone button to record)
  • GIFs and Stickers through the expression panel

Press and hold a message to open the action menu: react with an emoji, Reply, Copy, Forward, Edit Message (edited messages are marked), Add to Favorites, Pin Message (up to 8 pinned messages per conversation), or Delete. Delete has two choices: delete for me only, or Retract Message, which removes it permanently from everyone. A single text message can be up to 6888 characters.

Your favorite messages are collected in the "Pesan Berbintang" (Starred Messages) menu on the Chat list. The three-dot menu above the chat also has Search Messages and Media & Files (all photos, videos and files in that conversation).

Chat Settings: Wallpaper, Disappearing Messages & Block

From the three-dot menu above a chat you can set up that conversation.

  • Change Chat Background: pick a wallpaper from the built-in and online collections, or return to the default. The default changes randomly every day.
  • Disappearing Messages: new messages sent afterwards are deleted automatically after the duration you choose; older messages are not affected. In groups this can only be changed by an admin.
  • Mute/Unmute notifications: for that group only.
  • Block: blocks a user (private chat). The blocked list is managed in Drawer → Blocked.

In a group, the group info shows the members, the add-members button, leaving the group, and (admins only) deleting the group. Every setting here only applies to the conversation you have open.

Voice & Video Calls

Available on Android

You can call other users directly from the phone app, with no airtime needed.

Steps

  1. Open the Chat tab, then tick one or more people in the list (the title at the top changes to "N selected"). Two round buttons appear at the bottom right: phone (voice) and camera (video). Tap one to call. Groups also have a video-call button inside their chat.
  2. Wait until it is answered. An incoming call shows up with the phone's system calling screen, even when the app is closed.
  3. All calls are logged in Call History; the unseen badge disappears when you open it.

Note: calls are only available in the phone app. Web and Windows do not have calls yet, and Call History is not shown there.

Chapter 6Friends & Search

Followers, Following & Private Radar

The Friends tab on the navbar is where you manage your social connections. It has two tabs: Followers (who follows you) and Following (who you follow). Each row shows a "Saling Ikut" (mutual) or "Mengikutimu" (follows you) label where relevant.

Steps

  1. Open the Friends tab on the navbar.
  2. Pick the Followers or Following tab; type in the search box to filter by username.
  3. Tap the Follow / Ikut Balik (Follow back) button to follow someone, or the Following button to unfollow.

Private Account: if someone locks their account, their posts are only visible to their followers.

Searching All of sosmedplus

The Search tab on the navbar searches all of sosmedplus: posts, portals, Market products, and news from the news channels. The row of category chips at the top follows the Home tab you last opened, and you can change it to narrow the search.

Steps

  1. Tap Search on the navbar.
  2. Type a keyword ("Cari di seluruh sosmedplus..."), then press Enter.
  3. Pick a category at the top to narrow the search; for news categories you can also pick the news source.

Chapter 7Profile & CYV Balance

What the Profile Page Contains

Open your profile by tapping the profile photo at the top right of Home. The Profile page contains:

  • Profile photo and cover (tap to change: a photo from the Gallery or a built-in Avatar), name, short title, location, and the "Tentang Saya" (About me) bio.
  • Tier badge, level, and the sosmedplus Membership card (Membership & CYV Level chapter).
  • CYV balance and your rank ("Peringkat #... dari ..."). If you are not ranked yet, you are invited to start collecting CYV.
  • Activity graph: one square per day that gets darker the more posts you made that day, like the GitHub contribution graph. Press and hold a square to see that day's post count.
  • Story Highlights and your list of posts.
  • Creator Analytics (your account statistics) and the Sign-out button at the bottom.

Notification permissions: the "Diagnosa Izin Notifikasi" (Diagnose notification permissions) button checks whether your phone's notification permissions are complete and opens the phone Settings if some are missing.

Edit Profile, Private Account & Security

Tap the edit button on your profile to open "Edit Profil Lengkap" (Full profile edit).

What you can change

  • Username (must be available and follow the same rules as at sign-up: at least 3 characters, letters/numbers/dots/underscores)
  • Short title, location, and About Me (bio)
  • Private Account: when on, only your followers can see your posts
  • Full Personal Data (optional): occupation/profession, place and date of birth, last education, WhatsApp number, and website/social link
  • Account Security: change email, or change password (leave the password field empty if you do not want to change it)

Tap "Simpan Perubahan" (Save changes) to save. If the username or email is already used by another account, you are told and the change is not saved.

CYV: Send, Receive & Invite Friends

CYV is the sosmedplus reward point you collect from positive activity. From the Profile page you can:

  • Send CYV: transfer CYV to other users. Enter the recipient's username and the CYV amount (minimum 0.01), then send.
  • Receive CYV: share your username so other users can send CYV to you; tap the copy icon to copy your username.
  • Invite Friends, Earn CYV: your referral code is shown on Profile. Each time a friend signs up with that code you earn 20 CYV. Tap Share Code to send it, and see how many friends you have invited.
  • Buy CYV and Sell CYV: these only become active once CYV is officially listed on a crypto exchange through the Hedera Token Service.

CYV you have already received is never taken back. For the full token rules, read the CYV Whitepaper in the Drawer.

Chapter 8Holy Book

Read the World's Holy Books from Trusted Sources

This tab has 9 holy-book cards from various religions and beliefs, each with an ancient-manuscript photo cover and linked directly to its trusted original source site (not text copied into the app). Great for reading or checking the scripture references of your own or another faith without leaving the app or searching the internet.

Steps

  1. Open the Holy Book tab on Home.
  2. Pick one of the 9 cards: Qur'an, Bible (Alkitab), Torah-Zabur-Gospel, Torah/Tanakh, Vedas, Tripitaka, Confucian Scriptures, Guru Granth Sahib, or Other World Scriptures.
  3. The book page opens right inside the app. Each book has 2–3 different source sites (e.g. different schools or traditions) — choose the source with the chips under the title. The source you chose last is remembered for next time.
  4. While reading, floating buttons at the top left show Back (go back one page) and Reload.
  5. Press the back arrow at the top left to return to the list of 9 cards.

Fullscreen Mode & If a Page Fails to Load

Just like all web-based tabs in this app, the scripture page has an expand-fullscreen button (square icon in the top-right corner, YouTube-style) so you can read without header/tab bar clutter. If a page fails to load (connection issue), the app shows buttons to retry or open it in an external browser.

Steps

  1. Tap the fullscreen icon in the top-right corner to expand the view.
  2. Press your phone's Back button to exit fullscreen mode (back to normal view, not closing the app).
  3. If a disconnected-wifi icon appears, tap "Try Again" or "Open in Browser".

Chapter 9AI

Access Dozens of AI Platforms in One Tab

The AI tab collects links to many popular artificial-intelligence platforms at once, so you do not need to install lots of separate apps. It has AI Chat (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, Grok, Copilot, Mistral Le Chat, Meta AI, Perplexity and more), AI Image (Midjourney, Ideogram, Adobe Firefly, Bing Image Creator), AI Music (Suno, Udio), and AI Research & Learning (Hugging Face, HuggingChat, Papers with Code, Google AI, etc.).

Steps

  1. Open the AI tab.
  2. Swipe the chip row at the top to pick the platform you want (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT, Midjourney, Suno), or tap the grid button (the squares icon, "See all sources") to see every platform at once and jump straight to the one you want.
  3. The chosen platform opens right inside the app, and you can log in/chat as usual.

The same grid ("See all sources") button also appears in the Market, Travel, Education, Career, Technology and news tabs.

Upload Files & Save AI Results to Your Gallery

You can upload images/documents to AI platforms straight from the app, and images/videos/files downloaded from an AI chat (e.g. an image generated by Gemini/ChatGPT) are automatically saved to your phone's Gallery or Downloads folder.

Steps

  1. Tap the upload/attachment button inside the AI chat as usual — the app opens your phone's file picker.
  2. To save a result, tap the download button on that AI page.
  3. Wait for a confirmation notification ("Image saved to Gallery", etc.) — if the site doesn't support direct download, the app offers an "Open in Browser" option.

Fullscreen Mode

Just like other web-based category tabs, a fullscreen button is available in the top-right corner for a distraction-free chat experience.

Chapter 10Market

Local Market — Buy & Sell Products Near You

This sub-tab is an in-house marketplace, featuring sellers near your location (sorted by nearest distance when GPS is on). There's a category filter (Electronics, Fashion, Food & Beverage, Home & Furniture, Vehicles, Hobbies & Sports, Health & Beauty, Books & Stationery, Other) and a search box.

Steps

  1. Open the Market tab, then pick the "Local Market" chip.
  2. Pick a category at the top or type a keyword in the search box.
  3. Tap a product to see details and contact the seller.
  4. To sell your own product, tap "Sell Product" in the top-right — fill in product name, price, stock, condition (New/Used), description, photo, city/province (can be auto-filled via phone location), and WhatsApp number, then submit.

NFT Market — Collect & Trade Digital Works

This sub-tab is the in-app NFT marketplace based on the CYV token. You can see every NFT other users are selling (the "Semua NFT" / All NFTs tab), or manage your own NFT collection and list items for sale (the "NFT Saya" / My NFTs tab). NFTs with several editions are grouped on one collection card, and each edition has a unique serial number. Your CYV balance is shown at the top right.

Steps

  1. Open the Market tab and pick the "Pasar NFT" chip.
  2. In "Semua NFT", browse/search the collections for sale (there is a search box), tap "Pilih Edisi" (Choose edition) to pick an edition number, then tap "Beli Sekarang" (Buy now) and confirm to pay with your CYV balance.
  3. In "NFT Saya", pick one of your NFTs and tap "Jual" (Sell). If you have several unlisted editions, choose "Jual 1 Edisi" (Sell 1 edition) or "Jual Semua" (Sell all); enter the price in CYV (for many editions the price per edition is the same), then tap "Pasang Jual" (List for sale).
  4. Want to take an NFT off the market? Tap "Tarik" (Withdraw) on the listed NFT (or "Tarik Semua").
  5. After a successful purchase the NFT goes straight into your collection and can be checked in "NFT Saya".

Fees: sosmedplus charges no commission at this phase. For resales (secondary market) only, 5% of the price goes as a royalty to the NFT's original creator — unless the seller is the creator. You cannot buy your own NFT.

Shop Your Favorite E-commerce Sites

This sub-tab gathers major e-commerce platforms (Shopee, Amazon, TikTok Shop, Tokopedia, Blibli, Lazada, Bukalapak, Zalora, Bhinneka, Sociolla, Orami, eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, and more) accessible directly inside the app without installing separate apps.

Steps

  1. Open the Market tab, then pick the store logo you want at the top row (store switcher).
  2. For stores with categories (e.g. Shopee, Amazon, Tokopedia), scroll the category chips below it to jump to a specific section (e.g. Women's Fashion, Electronics, Special Promo).
  3. Shop as usual inside the embedded web view — an "Open App" button from the site automatically redirects to the official app if it's installed on your phone.
  4. Tap the fullscreen icon in the top-right corner for a distraction-free shopping view.

Note: the store switcher and category/search bar always stay visible (they don't hide while scrolling products), so you can switch stores anytime.

Chapter 11Travel

Book Tickets & Hotels from Various Platforms

This tab gathers popular travel platforms (Traveloka, Tiket.com, Bookcabin, Garuda Indonesia, Agoda, Booking.com, Airbnb, Skyscanner, OYO, RedDoorz, Trivago, Expedia, Trip.com) in one place for booking flight tickets, hotels, and even villas/glamping.

Steps

  1. Open the Travel tab.
  2. Pick a platform logo in the top row (platform switcher).
  3. If a platform has quick-pick chips (e.g. Traveloka: Top Hotels, Komodo Tour; Tiket.com: featured hotels), scroll the chips below it to jump straight to that offer.
  4. Continue the booking process as usual inside the embedded web view.

Land Transport (Bus & Train)

Besides flight/hotel tickets, the Travel tab also gives access to Damri (intercity/airport bus) and Access by KAI (train tickets, including Airport Rail/Railink and Whoosh categories).

Steps

  1. Pick the "Damri" or "Access by KAI" logo in the platform switcher.
  2. For KAI, scroll the category chips to choose between regular train tickets, Airport Rail, or Whoosh.
  3. Continue booking on the official page that opens.

Just like the Market tab, the platform switcher always stays visible while scrolling, and a fullscreen button is available in the top-right corner.

Chapter 12Education

Pandrita AI — Your Personal Study Tutor

Pandrita is an AI study assistant that teaches with guided question-and-answer (Socratic) method, tailored to school level and subject. Good for elementary/junior/senior-high students who want to practise or understand a topic, not just be handed ready answers.

Steps

  1. Open the Education tab — Pandrita AI shows up straight away as the first/main chip.
  2. Choose a level from the cover cards: SD (elementary), SMP (junior high) or SMA (senior high).
  3. Choose a subject. SD: Mathematics, Indonesian, IPAS (integrated science & social studies), Religion & Character. SMP: Mathematics, Indonesian, English, Natural Science (IPA), Social Studies (IPS), Religion & Character. SMA: Mathematics, Indonesian, English, Natural Science (IPA), Religion & Character.
  4. If you choose "Pendidikan Agama & Budi Pekerti" (Religion & Character), first pick your religion (Islam, Protestant, Catholic, Hindu, Buddhist or Confucian) so the material fits.
  5. Type your question or answer in the chat box, then tap send.
  6. Now and then Pandrita shows a "Cek Pemahaman" (Check understanding) card with a question to test how well you understood what was just covered.
  7. Press the back arrow to change level/subject/religion, or to start a new session.

Study Mode: Socratic vs. Direct Answer

Inside a Pandrita chat session, there are two answering-style options: "Socratic" (Pandrita guides you to think through counter-questions instead of giving the answer right away) and "Direct Answer" (Pandrita answers straight to the point). This mode can be switched anytime via two chips below the chat header, and always resets to Socratic each time you open a new study session.

Steps

  1. Inside a Pandrita chat session, tap the "Socratic" or "Direct Answer" chip below the subject title.

Available on Android

Mints NFTs straight from files already on your phone, so they are truly "your own work". It has 3 tabs: AI Gambar (AI Image — pick an image from the Gallery, e.g. an AI result you saved), AI Musik (AI Music — pick an mp3/wav/m4a audio file from phone storage), and Kamera (Camera — take a new photo with a caption).

A donation portal that links out to a third-party site outside the app (donasidanamustadhafin.com) — sosmedplus is only a bridge/link, not the party collecting or managing donation funds. Since the system can't verify a real donation was made, there's no CYV reward for this activity.

You can search an account, see the location signal status ("Satelit Terkunci"/"Sinyal Hilang" — Satellite locked / Signal lost), open the location in Google Maps, send a "Sirine" (a request for the target phone to sound an alarm so it is easy to find physically), and cancel a siren you already sent.

Web Version

Available on Web

sosmedplus can also be opened in a computer browser (sosmedplus.my.id). It has a three-column layout: the Drawer menu on the left, Home (feed) in the middle, and the category tabs on the right. The width of the Home column can be dragged; double-click the divider to return to the original size.

Signing in

  1. Open the site and sign in with email + password, or with a QR (see the QR Login section below).
  2. Creating a new account is not available on web — sign up through the Android or Windows app.

A few things differ on web compared to the phone app:

  • Some sites (most AI platforms, e-commerce and login-protected portals) forbid being shown inside another site. When that happens, a "Buka lengkap di aplikasi Windows/Android sosmedplus" (Open fully in the sosmedplus Windows/Android app) panel appears instead.
  • Voice/video calls are not available yet.
  • Some phone features are not available yet, for example recording voice with the microphone, uploading songs from a computer, and picking files in NFT Studio.
  • The "Unduh aplikasi" (Download app) menu in the web Drawer helps you download the Windows app or install the Android app through a QR to Google Play.

QR Login on Web & Windows

Available on Windows · Web

The sign-in screen on web and Windows has a "Masuk dengan QR" (Sign in with QR) option below the ATAU (OR) divider. A QR code shows on screen; you scan it with a phone that is already signed in to sosmedplus.

Steps

  1. On the web/Windows sign-in screen, find the QR code in the "Masuk dengan QR" section.
  2. On your phone: Drawer → "Scan QR Login" → point the camera at the QR (details are in the Drawer Menu → Scan QR Login section).
  3. The web/Windows screen changes to "Konfirmasi di HP kamu…" (Confirm on your phone…), then "Sedang masuk…" (Signing in…) once you tap Allow on the phone.

If the QR expires or is paused, tap "Muat ulang QR" (Reload QR). If "Login ditolak dari HP" (Login rejected from phone) appears, the request was rejected on your phone. If you request too many QR codes, wait a few minutes first.

Windows App

Available on Windows

The sosmedplus desktop app for Windows (store name: SosMedPlus) can be installed from the Microsoft Store or with the installer (.exe) from the sosmedplus download page on the web. It looks the same as the web version: three columns with the Drawer, Home and category tabs — but all category tabs, YouTube and site pages open fully inside the app.

Note on installing with the .exe: if Windows shows "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway.

In the Windows app you can create a new account, sign in with email/password or QR, and save songs and other downloads to the Downloads folder. Voice/video calls are not yet available on Windows.
