ABSTRACT
Loop: Party with friends is an event planning application that allows users to create an event and discover nearby events and parties to have fun with their friends. This party planning application is available for both party organizers and users, who love to attend parties and events. Using this app, the organizer just needs to create an event right on their app, keeping it private and public as per their choice.
Apart from this, the app has made it easy to discover nearby public parties and events by different categories, enabling interested people to buy a ticket directly from the app and avoid long lines. Using Loop, the users will spend more time enjoying the party and less time bothering about long lines, crashers, and bad guards at the entry door. Now, you might be thinking how our client got this interesting app idea. Here’s the answer!

App Idea
Based in California, USA, our client along with his two friends used to attend different parties and events, where they were facing problems like long lines, inefficient door payment system, crashers, and difficulty in buying tickets.
Being college students, they have interest in attending different events and host parties for their friends, but hosting a party or any event without any event planner is not an easy task. Understanding these problems, our client along with his two friends decided to develop an event planning app for all the people, who organize events and throw parties.
These three friends wanted to solve these problems, allowing people to organize a party or event without any hassle and invite their friends. But why they chose us to develop their application? Let’s know this why!
THE RIGHT CHOICE
After deciding to make the application, our client started looking for the iPhone app development company, and he preferred to search it in the Google. Then, he instantly found us in the search results because we were ranking on the first page of Google SERP.
After visiting our website and reviewing our portfolios like My Circle App and DJ Event Booking App, he contacted us with his requirements. One of our business representatives understood his requirements and problems that he wanted to resolve through the iPhone application.
Our client was very clear about his concept, so our business representative instantly understood the concept. Our client didn’t give a second thought to hire us for his project as he knew we had already developed over 50 social networking apps.
REQUIREMENTS
Our client wanted to develop an iPhone event planning application, allowing party organizers to host parties or events and invite friends directly from the app. He wanted to make one such app that helps people to host all types of parties from birthdays to anniversary to the graduation ceremony.
Along with the party throwers, he also wanted to help those people, who have interest in attending different events and parties by enabling them to discover nearby events by categories.
In a nutshell, he wanted to make all-in-one party hosting platform for both party throwers and users, who are interested in attending different events. Let’s know what we proposed him as a solution.
APP FEATURES
After thoroughly understanding our client’s requirements, our sales representative made a proposal for his requirements, proposing him a solution in terms of an application named Loop: Party with friends. Our proposed iPhone application helps users to throw a party or organize any event without taking any stress.
Using Loop application, users do not need to stand in the long lines to buy tickets and then enter into the party. Directly from the app, users buy tickets and get exact date, time, and location information.

Appreciation from Clients
Space-O helped to design the app in a very user-friendly way. They helped us to navigate solutions for the app.
I would like to thank the entire Space-O team for helping us with our photo editing app. We have been working with other developing teams before, and we were able to find Space-O. And all the other developers failed to deliver all great working apps for us. Space-O helped to design the app in a very user-friendly way. They helped us to navigate solutions for the app. And overall went above and beyond with our request.

They were highly recommended to me by my mentor and I am so glad that I chose to work with them.
This was the first app I’ve ever developed and they been extremely helpful every step of the way, answering questions, writing recommendations, and tips. If you’re looking for a high-quality app, definitely go with Space-O technologies.

We were all quite demanding in terms of quality, but Space-O has managed to go beyond, to fulfill our expectations.
When we started 2 years ago, the main struggle was to find the right developing team, because the problem was we were all quite demanding in terms of quality. And, this showed that we were able to develop some successful apps. But, this would not have been possible without Space-O.

We searched online for app developers that had an extensive experience in mobile app development as well as a strong presence in the market. We chose Space-O specifically because of the up-close experience we had with another app they had developed and we wanted to achieve the same high level of standards, quality, and satisfaction. We were looking for brilliant experts and we found them.

The Space-O team were great to work with. Every part of the process went as per the agreed schedule, and the finished prototype met, and in most cases, exceeded my expectations. While Space-O wasn’t the most price competitive of the quotes I received, the quality of their work, professionalism, and product, was well worth the additional cost. Highly recommend, and will continue to use their services for future projects.
