Objective:
60Plus is a social network catering to individuals aged 60 and above. It provides a platform for seniors to connect in interest-based clubs, share photos, and explore investment opportunities for passive income.
The client hired FIVE to create Android and iOS applications completely from scratch.
Challenge:
Our team had to create both the Android and iOS apps, as well as design the whole look of the application completely from scratch.
60Plus allows its users to join or create clubs based on their interests and hobbies. These clubs serve as virtual gathering places where members can share their experiences, hobbies, and knowledge.
Users can share their cherished memories with friends and family through photo-sharing features. This helps seniors maintain connections with loved ones, even if they are geographically distant.
One of the unique aspects of 60Plus is the inclusion of investment opportunities. Seniors can explore various projects and initiatives for passive income, which can be a source of financial security during retirement.
The platform enables users to schedule events and activities, fostering a sense of community and engagement. This feature can be used to plan gatherings, discussions, and other events.
The platform provides avenues for learning and personal growth. Seniors can access educational resources, engage in discussions, and learn from their peers.
60Plus offers a chat system like popular messaging apps like Telegram. This feature allows real-time communication, further enhancing the social experience for seniors.
