What will this look like for a person with Android? Or will Voo's functionality be hidden in a conversation with someone via sms?

Voo Plan for Kik

@george_burke So basically on Android what happens is that the user receives a link. They can see all the information about the plan and add it to their calendar. This is an example of what they can see. Is there anything more you think could be useful? https://app.letsroundup.com/m?id...

This looks great, and the most convincing use of iMessage apps I can think of. What's the plan for extending the types of meets? For example, could I organise a park run with a few friends and upload my own photo?

@adamfarah Thanks Adam. Right now you can collaborate on a plan anywhere, even the park! We don't have the ability to upload pictures just yet but we're looking at being able to have you login with Facebook and have a lot more options. What kind of meetings would you envision on this? We're all ears!

So many of my conversations with friends have involved "where / when are we going for drinks tonight?" which involves one of us clumsily searching through Yelp and copying and pasting a link over to messaging. I love how this makes the cumbersome routine into a single step that's already integrated into messaging I use today. Looking forward to trying this out for weekends to come!

@jiggityk Thanks Jiggity! What we realized is that people already have their platforms that they're using so we just wanted to make your existing workflow better. What else would you like to see in the product? Thanks again!

Can I suggest a few dates and have my friends choose which are good for them? That would make this really useful...

@theyonibomber Right now the cards themselves are fully collaborative so people can comment on the cards. Would you like to send a date poll similar to doodle?

I've used a lot of products that attempt to get me together with friends. The new beta is awesome. I talked to the founder and he's updating new things in the app that will make the next version even better. This is going to be the future of o-authing calendars. I think Meekan was the first step, this is the 2nd layer of abstraction and a new type of user behavior that is likely to be embraced for its capability to be impromptu and still hit the calendar as an event.

@datarade Thanks a lot for the hunt. Much appreciated. We wanted a simple and fast way to get people together while integrating smart analytics and integrations for places people love going to. iOS 10 gave us the perfect platform to do that with the iMessage apps. Since it's within people's workflow it removes the messiness of convincing friends to join another chat platform. As a nice sidenote, Apple is featuring us on the front page of the App Store for the iOS 10 launch so we're really humbled by that. Full Calendar integration is coming very soon. Which calendars would you like supported?

@cturlica gcal and as well outlook. I have friends in legacy industries and they swear by outlook. Not sure if it's the same standard format at large... but yeah just supporting outlook and Google calendar would be great.

Love the iteration from the standalone app, planning something from iMessage is faster and smoother. Great work from a great team!

@mirceap Thanks Mircea! Should be out as soon as Apple starts pushing out iOS10 -- should be about now lol It's all built in React Native as well so we went a bit all out. What did you think of the new design?

@cturlica Much cleaner than before! Looking forward to a Facebook Messenger version of Voo, hopefully it will be technically feasible soon :D

Really excited to see this product at a time when one of my favorite calendar apps was sunsetting ;) Yelp is cool but not quite what I need. Opentable is great but no group communication. Voo is where it's at for simply connecting friends for a rendezvous. Bravo.

@marshallhayner Thanks a lot Marshall. Yeah it's been a lot of work on the recommendation side as well. Hope to make getting with friends easier. What else would you like to see in the product to make it even better for you?
