Coming up with a cool app idea isn’t easy. Many people develop apps based on unmet needs, but sometimes some inspiration won’t hurt. If one of these ideas interest you, and you’re familiar with the industry, consider developing one.
- Star Recognition
Having you ever sat watching a movie or TV show with friends and couldn’t remember the name of an actor or actress? If you wait for the credits, you’ll forget all about it. Imagine having an app that would let you snap a picture and find out. The app could also list other films and shows the actor was in. This way, if the app user enjoys their performance, they can get suggestions for what to watch next.
- Art Recognition App
This could be a useful app for someone who wants to appear they know more about art than they actually do. Have the user snap a discreet photo of a work of art in a country club or the bosses’ house. The app could reveal the name of the painting or sculpture and the artist.
- Find a Foreign Language Buddy App
This app would let people trying a learn a foreign language find a buddy fluent in the language to help them. The person who wants to practice in a real-world setting can offer a lunch invitation to someone a local café and pick up the tab for an interesting meal. Language learnings apps are great, but there is nothing like practicing the language in public.
- Find a Dining Buddy
People who want to try a new restaurant may not want to go alone. It wouldn’t be a dating app, just a way for people who also don’t enjoy dining alone. It could be a way to meet a new friend, but the emphasis is on trying new places to eat.
