This is awesome - congrats on the launch!!!


thanks!!


This is absolutely awesome. As someone who has used Gather a bit, this blows it out of the water. Incredibly intuitive and fun way to move around and talk to your friends and coworkers. Once you realize that you don't need, nor want, the 8-bit paradigm to interact with folks, Flat.social clearly becomes the superior way to interact virtually.


Oh shoot - good catch. I'll fix it. Hope it helps!


Yes! I was doing this for awhile, but I am extremely lazy and didn't want to dig through my photos to find the screenshot. Plus, I wanted to tag in on my apple watch.

I encoded all the lat/longs of the FitnessSF locations into the Mobile Pass, so it'll just pop up on your phone when you're nearby. Saves me precious seconds :)

You're right the QR code doesn't change - neither does the mobile pass! You just have to generate the mobile pass once and never visit my silly website again.


Thank you! I agree, very niche, but I figured if there's even one other person that would appreciate it, it'd be worthwhile. I'm enjoying my workaround!


I was doing this too! But as a true millennial I had two complaints:

1. I still had to load the photo app when I approached the gym, which annoyed me. The lat/long encoded in the mobile pass just has it pop up when I'm nearby.

2. I wanted to be able to leave my phone at home and just use my apple watch.

Additionally, the code never changes so you never have to update the mobile pass or visit my dumb website again.

Divvy Homes | Sr. Software Engineer (full-stack) | (ONSITE) San Francisco, CA | www.divvyhomes.com

The Gist

At Divvy, we're helping renters become homeowners by letting our customers buy back pieces of their home over time. Our goal is for our customers to accrue enough equity in their homes to use as a down payment for a traditional mortgage.

The Company

Over the past year, we’ve worked hard to build an exceptional team, raise over $30 million in funding, and provide homes for dozens of families, meaningfully changing their financial future. Our customers choose any home for sale, and Divvy buys it on their behalf. The customer leases the home back from us while building equity credits along the way, preparing to buy the home at the end of their lease. Our customers get to live in their future home today, while buying fractions of the home over time.

The Job

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer passionate about using their creativity and talent to make access to homeownership more accessible. In this role, you’ll be part of the engineering team building our consumer, agent and administrative products. At Divvy, you’ll own your projects from start to finish and help to scale our platform to thousands of new applicants and multiple new markets. You’ll report directly to Divvy’s CTO and work alongside a team of 3-5 software engineers.
