Hello everyone! Super excited to finally launch version 2 of this iOS app! With Flinder, you can discover fun things to do based on your location, weather conditions and current time. For instance, if you open the app at night it'll give you suggestions to go to a pub, karaoke bar, nightclub etc. If you open it in the afternoon and the weather's kinda sucky it'll recommend activities like visiting a museum, go to the movies, all kind of indoor activities. It'll also show you nearby places related to the activities. I've completely rebuilt to app from scratch in React Native. V1 was built in Cordova/Phonegap which was.. not that great to say the least. Anyways if you decide to give it a go (promo codes available, send me a dm), please let me know what you think! 👏

Great app! I especially like the design

Pros:

Beautiful design

Easy to use

Cons:

Everything is real-time , can’t search for things to do later that day

Hi @echlpl does your app have strong UK and Ireland content.
Jan Van Echelpoel
@stevenlaw Hi Steven. The app uses Foursquare data to find the nearby places related to the things to do so it definitely has. That being said, the app performs better in urban areas where there are a lot of places listed.

@echlpl Hi Jan, so what makes your app unique compared to just using FourSquare?
Jan Van Echelpoel
@stevenlaw Flinder is best used for those moments when you really can't make up your mind what to do. It decides based on your location, time and weather conditions what's the best thing to do for you at that moment, without having to use filters or doing a signup, etc.
