 Is there a way to use this for other events? Is the app open source? Why iOS only for some features?

There are halving parties coming, would be amazing to use something like this! 
 Yes, that’s the plan! I’m working on it so that it can be used for other events. What I’ve built for Culture Shock is a proof of concept and meant to help inform my design of Comingle.

iOS is open source: https://github.com/tyiu/culture-shock-2024-ios

Android is not because the code is atrocious and there’s nothing much to look at. But there’s no other reason why it can’t be.

Some features are iOS only because I ran out of time for Android. I had only a short amount of time and I stayed up until 3am last night to push on Android before today’s event.

I agree that it would be amazing to use for all kinds of events! This kind of app experience for in-person is sorely lacking.
