Alyson Wyers — September 28, 2016 — Social Good
Designed to help you find your study buddy, Studyhubb is a startup in Atlanta launching this fall. This mobile app will help college students leverage the power of social media networking and chat apps to better their education. Users can swipe through to find a potential study buddy to match with.
In addition to being able to send and receive messages at an individual level, you can also use the smartphone application to find and create study groups if just one buddy isn't going to cut it. The social studying platform is described as the first of its kind, utilizing a Tinder-like experience.
Other matchmaking apps have been used outside the realm of romance, but this one caters to a specific, location-based demographic.
