Flamyngo's pretty designed app lets you create a city guide as either a map or list. The idea is to ask your friends suggestions what to visit (bars, restraurants, etc.) and it pops-up on your list without them having to sign up for anything, only using a whatsapp/messenger link you share.

@yvoschaap Thanks Yvo for hunting us! 🚀
You perfectly sum up the benefit of the app. We've been building this app as the best answer for all those questions like "Anyone tips for NYC? About to go on a trip tomorrow!".
Just select which friends you want to ask for suggestions and receive all their favourite places in one inbox, including all the info you need like opening hours, contact info and photos. Remember the days where you needed to search on timelines or within mailboxes? With Flamyngo, the best suggestions from your friends don’t get lost.
Flamyngo is just getting started. Curious what everyone thinks! I'm here to reply on feedback :-)
@think_andreah@yvoschaap thanks for your enthusiasm Andrea! Let us know how that pink bird helped you during your next trip

@yvoschaap@mhgraven This is awesome. Started creating my own guide to the city that I can share when friends come and visit from the UK. One thing that would be great is the functionality to add notes. E.g - I'd add my fav bakery to the map, but I could also add a note such as "Get there before 8am or there's a line. The morning buns are a must-try!".
Awesome idea and concept. Any plans to let people create ready made guides that friends can pre-download without having to prompt a friend? And maybe make the guides for general public consumption as well? I have a number of friends that often come to London and I find myself recommending the same places over and over. It can in fact get quite repetitive. It would be good to be able to create a single guide and then share it out to whoever asks.
@khurammalik Great to hear and thanks for coming up with this feedback!
We should probably make it more visible in the app, because you can already share your guide. It will generate a deep link. Friends who use Flamyngo will see your guide directly in the app after hitting the shared link. Friends without the app will see the guide after downloading it via the link.
Desktop & Android users will see your guide on the web. Here's an example of my web guide for Amsterdam: https://www.flamyngo.co/maarten-...
@mhgraven How do people add suggestions? Do they need to install the app?
It would be great if you could just pull comments straight from Facebook and run NLP on them. Or second best, provide a web link for them to add suggestions.
@tombielecki Thanks for reaching out!
Your friends don't need to install the Flamyngo app. They just click on the link they received from you and can directly add their favourite places. You can share these links on/via any platform, including Facebook. Cool if you try it out, let us know if it works for you :-)
@rstankov Cool, enjoy your next trip!
You can also ask our team for suggestions, just use Twitter (@flamyngoandco) for your request and we'll try to inspire you with some nice places.
