The three main call to action buttons that appear on the home screen are the most important.

Chat page
After a brief chat with the selected profile, users can choose an initial meeting place that suits their location and shared interests using the Suggest a Meeting Place button:
This will allow them to get to know each other a bit before starting their trip together.
Trip together screen
When clicking on the "Trip together now" button in the selected user's profile, users will be directed to a trip selection screen with several options that can be customized to the preferences of both parties.
Navigation screen during the trip
Arrive at a destination on their trip
A menu opens that provides information about the area, including an AR component that simulates a tour guide experience.
This allows users to learn about the place they are visiting in a more immersive and interactive way. Additionally, the app enables users to conveniently purchase entrance tickets to the site
directly through the application.
End of the trip
At the end of the trip, users can rate their overall experience and provide specific reviews of the places they visited. This helps to improve the accuracy of future trips and ensures that users have the best possible experience.
App Design
The color "green" represents nature and the environment, symbolizing growth, renewal, refreshment, health, and youth. These associations are also found in global travels and nature.
The secondary color is a light blue resembling the sky, aiming to provide a soothing shade that complements the green without being overly attention-grabbing.
