iDa

iDa is a map-based social network for communication in the real world!

HOW TO USE THE APP:

*Map*

Use buttons on the bottom to search for Places, Events & People.

Use the Radar button (bottom left) to scan area for existing objects.

To create Place or Event, long tap on the map until red marker appears, then tap it again. Notice "Visible to all" switch: if it's on, new object is visible for all users of the app! It's good for public places like playground, but doesn't suite private homes.

You can also use Plus button (bottom of the map) to create Places, Events and Movements.

*Communities*

Connect with people in your area using various interests! You'll get notified when there are new interests in your area. If you add new interest, people around will get notified as well!

*More*

Edit your Profile, upload your avatar, add Contacts and create Groups. For each Group and Contact you can enable location sharing.

GOOD TO KNOW:

You can invite Contacts to Places, Events and Movements, chat with them and receive auto check-in notifications.

LOCATION SHARING:

You can enable location sharing with selected Communities, Groups and Users. Check "Share location" switch (turned off by defult). If you are participating in a Movement, your location is shared with all its participants.

LOCATION USAGE:

If you leave the app working in the background, you'll notice "iDa online!" notification, which is required to be able to use your location data. It is used to automatically check-in on selected Places and to share your location with selected users (see LOCATION SHARING above).
