Hi! I have actually spoken to a number of different people regarding this and a vast majority liked and would use something like this. I do understand where your question is coming from so I am going to add some context to their responses.

1.) Some people said it would be awesome to use when they travel to meet up with people at conventions and or other tourist that are also traveling to go site-seeing or enjoy company together.

2.) Another person said, because she is 'single' and most of her friends are in a relationship it is often bothersome for her to go on third wheel or fifth wheel outings and she doesn't really have any friends that are not in a relationship in her circle.

3.) An answer we heard often was from people that just moved to a new place and/or got a new job they said it would be an great tool for them to get to meet people and or enjoy company during their lunch breaks.

Right now many of them did say that they were using other social apps to meet people mainly Tinder. At the same time they all felt that Tinder was not made for this purpose but they did not know of a better tool.

Perhaps you could initially target one of these groups and try to make Letz (+1 for that version of the name) the best app for their specific use case.

Also, one trick to make sure people in interviews are being honest with you is to get them to commit to a concrete action. It can be as simple as getting their e-mail address and then sending them an e-mail with a fake link just to see if they click on it, or as hardcore as asking 20$ in advance for a "premium access to the finished app". This way you'll see if they REALLY need what you are building.

haha, I like the $20 dollars commitment. we actually started development of a pretty much full blown app, I dont want to call it an MVP because this app is quite complex but I only did so because in order to give a good product/solution I wanted to make sure it could result in conversion/giving the users the desired result of their install. I will be targetting a specific market to start and be running a prelaunch campaign for beta testers in the upcoming week, I will let you know what the result is.

I would be most interested, especially to compare how your experience differs from ours (we also have a B2C app that needs to overcome the ghost town syndrome in order to be successful).

You can reach me at e-mail written in my profile!

IMS cant find your email in your profile not there. "Let's" stay in touch and try to help each other with our growth strategies.

Do you see what I did there? lol
