I graduated May 2014 with a Computer Engineering degree and got a job 4 months after earning 34/hr. During the first 2 months I barely had anything to do so I would browse the internet and just read things. I stumbled upon the Fastlane Millionaire and honestly thought the name was a bit meh, thinking it was going to be a cliché book about making money. When I read it though, almost everything seemed to be exactly the way I felt about having a 9-5 job and wanting to free myself from this type of lifestyle even though I was making pretty good money for my age. I had tried making websites years ago for passive income, but I think I gave up too easily not knowing how to promote them and such. Still have about 5 websites that I haven't touched in a while.
Fast forward and I got laid off a bit over 1 month ago. I decided I was going to work on some app ideas I had been writing down. Last week, I finally released one app and now I need some people to test it and give me feedback on improvements and maybe ideas to promote it.
The app idea came about when I would go out to eat with my girlfriend and she was always super indecisive and wanted me to pick, so I made an app to pick for me.
It's currently only for Android. You can find it by searching for "EatingOut" with no space in the Google play store and it should be the 3rd or 4th result when you click more apps.
Also in case someone suggests things I probably can't do with this app. I'm using the Yelp API to search for restaurants so there is a lot of limitations. I wanted to add hours a restaurant is open, a nice picture, distance and things like that but Yelp does not provide it and it would be impossible to add them for every restaurant manually.
Currently trying to add a way to share the restaurant you pick to social media and getting the refresh button to actually refresh instead of having to go back and choosing again.
