Lowkey fire

Itโ€™s good, just needs some work

I use an iPhone Air, so I can tell when my phone is using a lot of resources because it gets hot. This app has my phone heating up in my pocket all the time, and continues to use my location long after the side quest is done which destroys my battery life. I noticed the app was also trying to use my Dynamic Island. (I could swipe left and right on it) and it would just slightly expand the black part of it without showing anything. So basically, I really like the app idea, but it uses too many resources and still feels a bit unpolished and is kind of hard to navigate. Like what is the discover page supposed to do? Show me people I donโ€™t know? Really cool idea though.

Response from developer

thanks for taking the time to write this out. It's genuinely helpful. The battery drain and location running after a sidequest ends shouldn't be happening, and we're actively working on fixing both. The Dynamic Island bug which we are gonna fix in the next update thanks for bringing this up. On Discover: It's meant to show sidequests other people are posting so you can see what's happening around you beyond your friend group. If you want to share more or follow up directly, we're at team@thirdspace.so.

Love this app

I love this app, it makes it so easy to connect with others and to try new and fun activities !!

Customizable time of response

Great app so far but maybe being able to decrease or increase time to accept a quest would be nice!

Response from developer

Hey, thanks for the idea. We're always looking at how we can improve the user experience. If you have any more suggestions email us at team@thirdspace.so !!

So much fun

Itโ€™s so cool seeing everyone pull up in person!

FAQ

What does thirdspace do?

thirdspace helps friend groups make spontaneous real-life plans. It allows users to propose an activity with a picture and description, and friends have a 2-minute window to accept and join. The app aims to eliminate the cycle of saying 'we should hang out' without actually doing it.

How does the 2-minute window work?

Once a 'sidequest' (activity) is proposed, friends have exactly 2 minutes to accept. This short timeframe is designed to encourage immediate decisions and prevent overthinking, making it easier to commit to spontaneous plans.

Is my location private?

Yes, your location remains completely hidden until a friend accepts your sidequest invitation. Once they accept, maps unlock for both of you, allowing you to navigate to the meetup location safely.

What kind of activities can I propose?

You can propose any spontaneous activity that comes to mind, such as getting boba, watching a sunset, visiting a thrift store, going for coffee, or finding the best local tacos. The focus is on quick, real-life experiences with friends.

Is this app free to use?

Based on the provided information, the app is free to use and does not have in-app purchases or advertisements. It is designed to facilitate real-life connections without any financial barriers.
