YPlan launches on Android



YPlan has only been around for less than a year , but the company is quickly covering new ground.

After the expansion of the Kingdom in New York City last month, the social planning service is today the launch of an Android app .

YPlan works by aggregating interesting events , parties and activities that occur within the next 24 hours , forever answering the question " What are we going to do tonight ? "

The fact that users can pay directly for any activity right inside the app , without having to print a ticket or worry about finding cash at the door, giving the service of " Uber for nightlife " feel .

The company says it has over 300k downloads in the past 10 months , and expects to increase these figures with the launch of an Android version of the application. YPlan has so far received $ 12 million in Series A led by General Catalyst .

So why did it take so long to launch an Android app ?


According to the company , finding good Android developers is difficult and YPlan kept the bar high in the search. " The development of a quality Android application is time consuming, so we've been working very hard on it during the summer , the separating force between Android and expansion to New York," said Viktoras Jucikas , co -founder and CTO of YPlan .

Obviously, the platform availability is crucial to the success of the enterprise YPlan since it is built out user base. Over time, co -founder Rytis Vitkauskas plans to integrate more social -oriented implementation of the plan , leaving large groups of friends gathering together for certain activities.

For now , however , the company focuses on the expansion of the two markets where it is available in.
