MissedConnections is an iOS app designed to help Boston University students expand their social circle by facilitating meaningful & lasting connections. The app uses location-based matching to connect you with like-minded individuals you missed during your day.
How MissedConnections Works:
1. Location-Based Matching
You send location pings as you go about your day, and we'll keep track of who's nearby. Even if you didn’t get a chance to meet, we help bridge the gap!
2. Daily Matches Revealed
At the end of each day, you’ll receive a summary of people you’ve encountered who share similar interests, ready to connect!
3. Meaningful Connections
Once you see your matches, you can send them a friend request. From there, you can connect, discover their social media, and even explore events to meet up in person!
