Best App Startup

MoveMe is an application to help you get quotes to move quickly. After our Managing Director (Jason Gaved) had issues moving - he found a gap in the market and decided to act upon it and create an app.

 

Pixwup - Pixwup / Compsoft

Best App Startup

- Silver

Place is a central element of almost all the content we share and consume; whether it’s a report on events in the Middle East, a friend’s visit to Paris or the winning goal at Wembley. Unlike other social/content-sharing networks, Pixwup doesn’t just allow content to be plotted by location, it places the map at the heart of content discovery. Pixwup’s intuitive interface allows users to upload their own content for public or private viewing, view trending items, and to quickly and easily browse images and videos posted anywhere in the world.

 

Inbox Messenger - Inbox Messenger

Best App Startup

Inbox empowers users to have conversations, instead of just sending messages. Traditional messengers send text or pictures to describe what you want to say, but Inbox creates chat experiences that allow you to share how you feel and express it creatively. If there isn’t a perfect emoji for your mood, draw your own! Or transform selfies into fun drawings that capture all of your personality. When the conversation gets serious, show a friend that you’re listening with the presence indicator. These features mixed with a clean and intuitive design mean better conversations for you and your friends.

 

1UP - Capture. Create. Compete - 1UP - Capture. Create. Compete / hedgehog lab

Best App Startup

- Silver

Our vision at 1UP is to create the go-to forum where individuals can put their best foot forward in photo or video competitions that showcase talent, express creativity & humour or inspire us through humanitarianism efforts. Our starting point has been to develop a slick iOS platform that facilitates this and offers a highly engaging user experience. The 1UP app encompasses most of the typical elements found in social media applications (which users have come to expect), but also lays the foundations for gamification of these interactions, appealing to the playful, competitive side that exists in most of us.

 

Minicabster - Minicabster Ltd

Best App Startup

- Silver

We want to make life easier for those who don’t know the meaning of ‘a quiet night in’. Whether you’re heading into town for casual drinks, jetting off for a business meeting, or unleashing your inner explorer, all it takes is two taps on the app to book a reliable, affordable cab to any chosen location. Our dynamic app puts a national minicab network in the palm of your hand – now that’s real power! You can browse local fleets and get quotes for your journey upfront – all of them affordable and competitive.
