Live comfortably with anyone, anywhere. That is the goal of Crib. We understand that most people out there are just trying to survive. That might mean living with other people to save money. That last thing you need in your already stressful life is to come home to an uncomfortable living environment because your and your roommate don't get along. This app does NOT stop bad roommates from being bad roommates. What it does is prevent tension between roommates by helping you communicate your needs, even for those that aren't confrontational. How? Home or Away: This feature allows you to see who's home or not. The alternative would be to share your location at all times but that might feel like an invasion of privacy, especially if you aren't too close with your roommates. You might like to have 'alone time' in the house, or wonder if your roommate got back home after a night out. This feature helps communicate your whereabouts without sharing your actual location or texting them every time. Custom status: This feature is designed to communicate your needs to your roommates. Have a final tomorrow and need to study? Set your status to 'Busy' and leave a note saying that you are studying. Crib will notify your roommates that you are on a grind and ask them to respect your needs. Crib alerts: This feature is to maintain a comfortable living environment for all. Use it to notify your roommates about rent, dirty dishes, and even when you run out of toilet paper! Do you have a feature idea from your own experience? I would love to hear it!
