Summary

I’m building a mobile app focused on SEC college towns that allows students to anonymously view real-time “vibe” data for local bars before going out. The goal is to help users quickly decide where to go based on crowd level, energy, and overall atmosphere — without displaying personal identities. This is an MVP build focused on simplicity, speed, and strong user experience. Target Users: College students (18–23) at SEC universities. Core Concept: Users can: View a list of nearby bars See live crowd/vibe indicators (e.g., packed, buzzing, slow) Submit quick, anonymous vibe updates (2–3 taps max) Make fast decisions before going out The app should feel: Clean and modern Social and energetic Not overly “fratty” or chaotic Simple and intuitive Scope of Work: iOS-first mobile app design 12–18 total screens (MVP) Onboarding flow Bar list feed Individual bar detail page (live vibe metrics) Quick anonymous check-in interface Basic settings/profile screen Simple design system (colors, typography, components) Clickable Figma prototype Developer-ready assets Deliverables: High-fidelity UI designs in Figma Interactive prototype Organized component library Assets prepared for development handoff Ideal Candidate: Strong mobile UI/UX portfolio Experience designing social or consumer apps Ability to simplify flows and reduce friction Familiar with building scalable design systems Comfortable collaborating on product strategy Timeline: 4–6 weeks Budget: Open to proposals based on experience and scope. Please include: Relevant mobile app portfolio examples Your process for UX flow planning Estimated timeline and cost Looking for someone who is interested in potentially continuing into future iterations as the product evolves.
