An app to connect women travelling solo.
I've seen women posting on solo travelling facebook groups their current or next location and PM each other, especially in non-english language groups.
With the app, you would receive a notification when a new traveller (speaking your native tongue or not) is close using geolocation, then you check their facebook profile and message them (via messenger).
No need to display the app: you just wait for the notifications (which frequency can be changed). This is my idea for solving the egg & chicken problem, so obviously the app doesn't display ads (and is free).
- INTPenis 6y agoWell what is it called? I'm active on camping forums where this might be useful
- solof 6y agoApp is still in development and will be ready as soon as we can travel out from Europe Could you tell me more about the camping forums ? Are you from the US ? solofapp@gmail.com
- INTPenis 6y agoI always camp by bicycle and my favorite forum is the subreddit bicycletouring. I mainly use reddit for discussions like that. When you're ready, I suggest you post a link to the app on some reddit boards. Please.
- johnmarinelli 6y agoI'm sorry that my mind is in the gutter but the email reads "Solo Fap" to me, you may want to consider changing it because there are probably plenty of other lonely 20-somethings whose minds are also in the gutter
- solof 6y agoAha thanks for the heads up, I won't make this mistake again.
- Jemaclus 6y agoInteresting idea! I bet there are tons of solo women travelers who would love this kind of thing. How do you verify that they're all women?
- solof 6y agoThanks! For a start, users have to login via Facebook and they can report other users.
