Location-Based Social Meet-Up Mobile App
Budget: £20 – £250 GBP
I'm looking for a mobile app developer to bring my vision of a location-based social meet-up app to life. This app is designed for a new business, aiming to connect people based on their geographical proximity and shared interests. This app aims to combat male loneliness and mental health issues as a 2022 Pew Research Center survey found that six in ten men under the age of 30 are single, Those aged between 16-29 are over two times as likely to report feeling lonely often or always than those over 70 (9.7% versus 3.7%) and “Younger generations are expressing high or chronic levels of loneliness which demonstrates the importance of understanding why this happens, how it can be prevented, and how it can be intervened effectively.
“Since the peak of the pandemic, chronic levels of loneliness have not returned back to levels we saw before lockdown. While this could, in part, be down to loneliness becoming a more accepted and talked about issue that can impact any of us at any stage of life, it’s clear that there are millions of people experiencing the severest form of loneliness, which we must continue to address.
Key Features:
- Primary functionality revolves around suggesting location-based meet-ups, facilitating new friendships and social connections.
- ID requirement to join.
- Message functionality and ability to accept/decline requests
- The app should also incorporate push notifications to keep users engaged and informed about potential meet-ups.
- Profile creation fucntion - Age, 3 photos required, job, bio.
- People will list meet ups with what, where, who, when and free/pay per person.
For example; 5 a side @ Goals Croydon, £7pp. Spare ticket for Wireless Festival @ Finsbury Park, Free.
Pint and darts @ local pub, Thursday Night, Pay per person. Sunday run @ Hyde park, Free. Playstation session tonight @ Online, Free.
Person chooses ''I'm in' after looking at profile, then the lister accepts or declines, after this a chat function will be allowed and they can plan this themselves.
Ideal Skills:
- Knowledge of IOS app development, particularly with location-based services.
- Experience in creating user-friendly interfaces and integrating interactive features.
- Knowledge of implementing push notifications.
The successful freelancer will be passionate about mobile app development and interested in bringing this idea to life. Your experience and skills will play a crucial role in bringing this business idea to reality.
