Cherriz vs Interests

Cherriz is a new friendship app for University Students who share similar interests, have common hobbies, and enjoy attending the same events. Are you a University Student? Do you want to practice one of your favorite hobbies or attend your dream event, but none of your current friends is actually into that? Then Cherriz is the app for you! From extreme sports to spiritual practices, from local events to world-concert tours, amazing experiences are available for you to co-create and live along with other University Students. Living your best university life is just a swipe away in the Cherriz app! How Cherriz works: - All you need to do is to set up a profile with your verified university email, your photos, and your top five interests. Then you can start browsing through the profiles of students who have the same interests as you. - Swipe right if you wish to connect and start a conversation with a friend to share hobbies offline. Alternatively, you can create an activity-centered group and chat with like-minded University Students. - Tailored to your interests, Cherriz helps you discover, create and attend exciting events with your new friends. To prioritize trust and safety, we have introduced the University Account Verification and the Reporting and Blocking features.

So the old Facebook was more focused on profiles as the news feed did not exist yet. Every profile had to belong to the user’s college. In 2004, Facebook was more about meeting people than keeping up with your friends. One feature I really miss is this: If you look at the “Interests” field on an old Facebook profile, notice that listed items are a blue hyperlink. Clicking on a hyperlink would direct you to a list of people in your college network who share the same interest. Another similar feature was the ability to enter the class schedule. The list would consist of hyperlinks of the classes that would also direct to a list of students with the same class. I would like to bring this functionality back to the masses. The app will consist in a bare-bones kind of way that consists of a text field up top to enter the user’s interests and hobbies. This will be shown after the user logs in via Facebook. These values will be added to a table view of tappable items. Tapping one of these interests would take the user to a screen with a list of other users that share the same interest. The list will be presented in a random order. Tapping on a user would direct to the Mail app to message that tapped person. This is a great app for making new friends!
