Higo: Local Meet Global Unveils Version 1.5 with Enhanced Translation and People‐Search Features

Higo: Local Meet Global, the travel-centric social app that helps global explorers meet locals and fellow travelers, recently rolls out version 1.5. This release delivers two major enhancements: smarter translation integration and an upgraded people-search feature, reinforcing Higo's commitment to facilitating authentic, intentional in-person interactions for users visiting Thailand and beyond.

Introduction
As travel resumes globally, Higo empowers solo adventurers and culturally curious visitors to step off the itinerary and engage directly with Thai locals or fellow explorers. Version 1.5 brings deeper linguistic and discovery support, so conversations and plans start earlier-before departure.

Key Features
• Real-Time Translation Enhancements
Higo now offers a more seamless in-chat translation experience-turning language barriers into bridges. Communication in multiple languages is now smoother, whether through chats or moment-feed content. Travelers can interact confidently with users in Thailand, with translated messages appearing inline to preserve conversation flow.

• Advanced People-Search
The upgraded search tool lets users explore local hosts, fellow travelers, or interest-based communities based on travel dates, destinations, and tags like "digital nomad," "foodie," or "Thailand local." This enhancement strengthens pre-trip planning by connecting like-minded individuals proactively and intuitively.

Target Audience
Higo is tailored to travelers visiting Thailand and other Asian countries -from first-time tourists to long-stay digital nomads. Users can build connections with locals or global peers for friendship, cultural exchange, group outings, or more-all before arriving in-country.

Safety & Verification
Each user is verified via real-person profile photos and manual checks, earning a visible "verified" badge. Higo also maintains easy reporting functions and in-app support to ensure a respectful, secure environment.

Local Focus
Centered on Thailand's vibrant cities-Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, and beyond-the app highlights hosts and local meet-up plans. With the updated search feature and translation engine, both travelers and locals can discover and engage with relevant communities more naturally and confidently.
