Hey PH,
Co-creators of Maply here. Looking to get some feedback on the app we’ve been working on the past few years.
We started Maply in college to answer the question: “what’s going on near me?” This was a recurring inquiry not only for local activities and events, but also for breaking news and campus emergencies. At the time, the best way to find this information was via Yik Yak and other location-based social apps.
Similar to how Waze addresses traffic, we believe combining user-generated content and a real-time map interface is the best way to discover here-and-now information.
Today, we operate in five US cities and are used by thousands to find what’s happening nearby. In the next 6 months, we’ll be active in over 20 cities in the US, Canada and Mexico.
Look forward to hearing from you all!
P.S. if you’re attending South by Southwest, download Maply using this link (iOS: https://apple.co/2ELFo7n Android: https://goo.gl/hNFE59) for a map of everything free (music, tacos, parties, etc.) happening in Austin 😊
