That provides location and time based content in a truly ephemeral manner

Unlike our competitors who built location on top of their existing service

Our service is built on top of location

What we learned

iOS DevelopmentGained experience with Swift, Objective-C, as well as vector-based design with Sketch

Assess FeasibilityOur first three presentations were all on different ideas because we didn’t do enough prior research

PivotingKnowing and accepting a change of course is essential to development

No AssumptionsDon’t make assumptions about what the user wants. Actually ask them

UI MattersIf the interface looks bad, people will shit on it even if the idea/functionality is good

Be LazyDon’t implement something if someone else has already done it for you

Work left to do

Filter by FriendsImplementation of map showing only vescles posted by friends still buggy

Serving VideoCurrently only serve text and picture vescles, but video is essential too

Some Parts Scale...but others don’t. Whole application needs to be scalable to maintain a user base
