This app is a location journal of all the places you and your friends have been. But it does not stop there as others in your vicinity are able to contribute to directory of locations we can visit. Using this enriched set of logs across our area, we won't run into that situation of lacking something to do despite time, money, and friends. This app provides not only logging capabilities, but also an LLM to conversate on what activities is best for our current situation. Alongside this is a list and ranking feature of different activities we did.
