Love the idea and project, but I have to admit, you missed an amazing opportunity to call it "Yo-Lo" and parody off that awful (popular) phrase used in pop culture... Haha :) Keep it up. Downloaded the app, and am getting some other friends on there too!

Thanks a lot! Glad to hear someone enjoys the app as much as we do :). Apple actually wouldn't approve the app with "Yo" in the name, so we decided to run with just "Lo" instead.

Rebrand and release it twice, that's what all the app store trolls do right?

also really love the idea (have not tried this).

to me, this seems like if you can get past patent issues and get it fully to market this would be a no brainer acquisition for FB messenger.

I couldn't see myself using this as a standalone app but would definitely use it as a feature within another app.

Thanks for the feedback! We're excited to keep moving forward with the project whether that means integration with other apps or building out Lo itself. It's great though to see people enjoying the app we originally built just to keep track of our team :).
