# App Ideas

### Dhriti
- Bullet Journal App: takes picture of calendar and sets reminders on out phone
- Inventory App: helps businesses keep track of what materials that have been used and sends notifications when something needs to be ordered
- Recipes App: helps you meal prep during the week and provides recipes based on you skill level, feedback could be provided
- Adventure Finder: find the nearest adventure sport or fun activity and plan a trip
- Tune in: important news by topic, business, political, most popular trends and good articles to read because I struggle to keep up with current events
- Take a break: app that reminds you to step away from the screen and gives you a quick activity to complete to relieve stress, also the user can set up when they want the reminders and the duration of the activities
- Flip the coin: often we meet up with friends and don't know if you want to watch a movie or play a game and don't know which game or movie so the app helps provide two options after everyone submits a quick poll and then flips a coin between the two
