Inspiration

Do you ever look at your computer screen and honestly not know what day it is? Or how long it's been since you were last outside? Do you want suggestions for fun things to do to break the quarantine boredom?

What it does

Using the data the Google collects for your location, GetGoing2021 will notify you when you haven't left your house for a certain number of days (default = 5 days), and recommend fun activities based on your interests.

How we built it

We were able to build the app in Glide. We used data to test it from one of the team member's own Google Maps location data for January 2021.

Challenges we ran into

Deciding which platform would be best to build the app Determining the best way to parse the JSON file of Google Maps locations in Python

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Ability to obtain and use action location data to analyze Making our first mobile app!

What we learned

How to make a mobile app using Glide How to extract relevant data from a JSON into a CSV that can be read by Glide

What's next for GetGoing2021

More testing and troubleshooting!
