We are really excited to announce that the beta version of Lifetym will be available in a few weeks. Lifetym makes it fun to plan hangouts with friends! It’s like a private hangout planner with Path like timeline!

When we started working on this a month back, we observed the way people plan hangouts with their close ones and realized that few things have been done that makes it easy to plan these. Each of these real hangouts form a very important component of our life or as we say they form our ‘Lifetym’.  We want people to have more fun and spend more time with their closed ones and this beta release will be the first step on the way.

Some of the problems we heard from users that we are trying to solve:

Planning takes forever using messaging apps: The back and forth arguments on what to do and where to go is a very painful experience especially on messages. And calling people to finalize just doesn’t happen because everyone has their own opinion.

Collecting photos from everyone is such a pain: In each hang out there are multiple photos that people take and each of those have captured a precious moment. But the real pain comes when we start collecting the photos from everybody after the hangout. Whatsapp downsizes the photos and not all the photos can be uploaded onto Instagram or Facebook. Current optimal solutions like Dropbox make it all look like files and folders and sharing the folders and uploading them is a separate pain.

So we looked at these problems and thought about building a product that solves both of these problems. Something where to start planning all you need is to choose the friends! Where the entire issue of collecitng photos is automatically taken care of! Sounds exciting and unbelievable? The only way to find out is by signing up for our beta!

Happy Planning!
