BNDR is an app for users to keep track of their party activities. Users create their Bndr by setting a start time, update the Bndr by incrementing stats like number of drinks, and add photos to solidify the memory. Users must allow other users to follow them in order for their friends to see their Bndrs. Bndr also has a Fiestas feature to track stats and photos for group activities. On the You tab, users can look back at their lifetime statistics to get a sense of their nights out. BNDR abides by Apple's standard terms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
