Android App for Homestay Food Exploration
Budget: ₹750 – ₹1,250 INR
I'm looking for an Android developer to create a mobile app that allows users to discover homestays and explore local food options.
Key Features:
- Search for nearby homestays: The app should enable users to find homestays in their vicinity.
- Map integration: Utilize a map interface for easy navigation and location finding.
- Booking and reservations: Implement a feature for users to book their desired homestay.
- Chat with hosts: A chat feature for users to communicate with their hosts.
- Vehicle rental: An option for users to rent a vehicle from their host.
- Food menu: A feature displaying the food options available from the host.
Ideal skills for this project include proficiency in Android app development, UI/UX design, and experience with integrating map and chat functionalities into an app. A keen understanding of booking systems and food delivery interfaces would also be beneficial.
