I've been working on FriendApp the past year. I think it hasn't worked in the past because the average person doesn't realize that they could really benefit from this solution. It hasn't necessarily felt like a burning problem. I think it has to add some value beyond just classifying and adding additional metadata to contacts.
My goal is to develop features that also facilitate sharing of activities, upcoming events that I'm attending that I want to share with people I know. Things I want to do, and making that visible to select groups of people.
I've been building FriendApp the past year. The core feature on iPhone right now is to just group people into lists, and preserve messaging integration with whatsapp, text etc. Trying to make it super simple. Also has ability to sync for recent contacts list. Would love feedback, and thoughts on the next features to iterate on.
This is where I'd like to go with FriendApp. Would love if you wanted to check out where we are right now with our iPhone app. https://www.friendapp.com/
Hi. I've been working on FriendApp, a new productivity app to help you focus on your local friends. I've become more aware about how much time we spend interacting with people virtually that we don't see on a regular basis, or perhaps have never met. And I think we need tech to help us bring that focus back a bit to local relationships that have greater chance to be IRL
I was wondering if anyone uses other tools to keep a local list of people they want to stay in touch with, or any other hacks they may have done.
FriendApp is only available for iOS at the moment, but I certainly welcome any feedback on the early version available at https://www.friendapp.com
