Huud Connects Neighbours Nationwide with New Social Network App Print E-mail
Written by Huud   
Wednesday, 12 December 2012
Innovative Huud app rivals Facebook and FourSquare with new location-based social network app aimed to bring communities closer together.


 

LONDON- UK’s first neighbourhood focused social networking app launches nationwide today for iPhone and Android, designed to instantly connect neighbours on the issues that really matter to their community. From local news and events to sharing services and favours, the free Huud app promises to build stronger and happier neighbourhoods up and down the country.

So what is the secret of building a strong community in your neighbourhood? According to Huud’s co-founder, Hrissto Ditchev, ‘We think it is the favours people do for each other. Favours like lending a tool or lending a hand, offering a shoulder to cry on or just a drink- simple ways to be there for each other when in need. Huud provides a free platform for neighbours to connect on all of this and more, putting your neighbourhood in the palm of your hand.’

The free app for Android and iPhone helps users to collaborate, network and socialise with their local community on the go by posting or browsing topics about their neighbourhood and creating interest-specific groups. You can share local news instantly, offer and receive services on a local marketplace, ask your neighbours for help, arrange events and ask for recommendations in one swipe of your hand.

Download Huud for free on iPhone: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/huud/id571283198?ls=1&mt=8

or Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.HUUD
