Jelato

Jelato is a modern-day social friending app that connects cool folk nearby on shared interests. Real time chats and events bring jelling to the next level on iOS.

Connecting for real. There are many ways to connect with friends online, but only Jelato perfects the art of jelling. Through location-based connectivity, 24 hour chats, and live social event listings, we designed and developed an interactive experience based on shared interests and conversation for Vancouver-based startup, Jelato.

24-hour chats mean chat histories expire after a day. This logic keeps interactions fresh and casual, while encouraging in-person meet-ups through events. Using integrations such as Google Maps, we were able to build seamless digital connections through user experience and usable technology.

Technologies: MVVM, RxSwift, Redux, Coordinator Pattern, Twillio Chat, Google Places, AWS Lambda, Node.js
