PassMe

Inspiration

We were majorly inspired by Nintendo's StreetPass to create a social app for your phone.

What it does

This is a social app that allows you to meet people as you pass by them on the street. The app prompts you to create a profile that asks you what you have been up to during the week and gives you the opportunity to ask people a question. Others that happen to pass by you can answer to the said question and you can see their responses. You, respectively, can answer others questions as well.

How we built it

We built the app for Android in Android Studio utilizing Flutter. We also implemented the Google Nearby Connections API to get the pass by function to work.

Challenges we ran into

The main challenge was definitely understanding and getting Flutter to work in our favor. A lot of the challenge came from us all trying to understand Flutter for the first time ever.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are very proud of getting the Google Nearby API to work with the program as it was very essential to our project.

What we learned

We learned how to make a social app for the first time in Flutter with the use of Google Nearby API.

What's next for PassMe

If we were to expand PassMe, we could probably implement friending and small minigames to incentivize people meeting each other when using the app. Moderation features would also be a must have to further expand the app.
