Mobile App Development (iOS & Android)

Prepared by Digital Apes GmbH

Project Summary

The Let's Go Adventure Club App will serve as a central mobile platform (iOS & Android) where users across the UK can discover events, book trips, and engage with an active community. The app takes inspiration from successful platforms like the WeMeet App while going beyond with its own unique features.

Vision: A central hub for events, trips, and community engagement — simple, inviting, and social-first.

Project Goals

Target Platforms

Core Features Overview

Version 1 (V1) includes all essential features to successfully launch the app and build a solid user base.

📍

1. Event Feed

Location-based feed with categories, smart suggestions, and a clear overview of all events.

2. Event Creation

Users can create their own events — with an approval process by admins before publication.

👤

3. User Profiles

Personal profiles with past and upcoming events as well as social proof elements.

🎫

4. RSVP & Tickets

One-tap join, digital tickets with wallet integration, and scan functionality.

🏙

5. City Structure

Events organized by cities such as Leeds, Manchester, London, and more.

🔔

6. Push & Email

Personalized notifications and emails based on location and interests.

Event Feed & Discovery

The Event Feed is the heart of the app. Users see relevant events based on their location — automatically detected or manually selected.

Location-Based Display

Event Details

FieldDescription
TitleName of the event
Category / "Vibe"e.g. hike, social, trip
Date & TimeWhen the event takes place
Attendee List"Who's going" — overview of participants
Quick JoinOne-tap participation
DescriptionDetails and info about the event
WhatsApp LinkDirect link to event group chat

Reference: The WeMeet App uses a similar concept with categories such as "Art, Culture & Books", "Food, Wine & Drinks", "Nature & Excursions", "Sports", "Yoga & Wellness", and "Community & Reunion".

Event Creation & Profiles

Event Creation with Approval Process

Users can create their own events. Before publication, all events go through an approval process (admin approval) to ensure quality.

Required fields:

Workflow: Create event → Admin review → Approval → Event goes live in the feed

User Profiles

Each user gets a personal profile with the following elements:

RSVP / Join System

Cities, Notifications & Email

City-Based Structure

The app is organized by cities to show users relevant local events:

Push Notifications

Personalized push notifications increase engagement and keep users active:

TypeExample
Social Proof"40 people going tonight in Leeds"
Urgency"Last 5 spots left!"
Relevance"New event near you"
New Offer"New trip just launched!"
Seasonal"Feeling like you want some winter sun?"

Email System

Personalized emails based on user behavior and preferences:

Note: Push notifications and emails are an important retention channel and should be considered from the very beginning of the strategy.

Technical Implementation

Recommended Technology Stack

AreaTechnologyBenefit
Mobile AppReact Native / FlutterSingle codebase for iOS & Android
Backend / APINode.js / SupabaseScalable, real-time capable
DatabasePostgreSQLReliable, geo-capable
AuthOAuth 2.0 / Social LoginEasy registration
PushFirebase Cloud MessagingiOS & Android covered
EmailSendGrid / ResendPersonalized campaigns
TicketsWallet API (Apple/Google)Native integration
HostingAWS / VercelGlobal, highly available

Cross-Platform Approach: By using React Native or Flutter, the app is developed with a single codebase for both platforms (iOS & Android). This saves time, reduces costs, and ensures consistent behavior.

Project Phases

PhaseContent
1. Discovery & DesignRequirements analysis, wireframes, UI/UX design
2. Development V1All core features (Event Feed, Profiles, RSVP, Tickets, Push, Email)
3. Testing & QAFunctional, performance, and usability testing
4. LaunchPublication on App Store & Google Play Store
5. IterationIncorporate feedback, bug fixes, optimizations

Future Enhancements

After a successful V1 launch, additional features can be planned and implemented. The exact scope depends on budget, timeline, and insights from live operations.

Potential V2 Features

Iterative Approach: We recommend collecting user feedback after the V1 launch and prioritizing the roadmap together. This ensures resources flow into the features that deliver the greatest value.

Context & Background

Current Challenge: There is currently no central platform for events and community around Let's Go.

Objective: Simplify event discovery, booking, and community engagement — all in one app.

Benchmark: WeMeet App (reference for UX, features, and market positioning).
