Bop
Social, local, mobile discovery
“bop allows you to see what your local community is up to. A digital interface that extends beyond friends and families, beyond “following” and being “followed,” that actually clues you in to all the fun events happening all around you, connecting you to your true community.
It’s visual twitter unchained from the closed network.”
– from the bop founders.
The bop app was created with a small team looking to launch a new kind of local experience/event discovery app geared towards a college demographic. Users were given the ability to create private and public posts under a set of categories and tied to a location. Users had the ability to search and join local bops featured in their feed based on their location and college association.
Concepts included features such as a visual representation of day and weather changes, digital to physical product feature add ons (i.e. physical invitations), lightweight interactions, social interactions, private vs. public posting amongst others.
