Yarn is an App, Connecting People to Enhance Their Experience
References: weareyarn.io
As the tech age digitizes human interaction to foster an easier and more efficient way for strangers to connect, travel mobile applications are becoming an increasingly popular choice for those who embark on adventures alone. Yarn is a token of this movement.
Created by "four digital nomads" from Prague, Czech Republic, the travel mobile application is easy to use and alleviates the stress that is caused by meeting new people in new places. Users sign up for Yarn through a Facebook account and are integrated into a "weave" — a selected randomized group of people in the city. The travel mobile application socializes users based on their mood and interest. Yarn references the top recommendations for restaurants, cafes or social activities and makes suggestions for users to meet.
