Great idea, and seems like a sleek implementation. As someone who travels for work a tonne, I can't wait to see this on Android. Look forward to you adding in coworking spots as well ;)
@inztinkt Hey Hector! Thanks for feedback ;) Coworking spots is actually a cool idea to put as well
Very cool! Looking forward to seeing how you develop as I can see how this can get better and better, very interested in an API too. :)
@timfernando Hey Tim! Thanks for your feedback ;) We are also very excited about new features. What do you think about the app so far? Any thoughts or suggestions?

Such a simple interface to navigate and is great for discovery. Will be interesting to see how many new providers will be plugged in to each vertical. Nice work!
Pros:Save lots of phone screen real estate. Brings all the key travel apps together.
Cons:Mainly just 1 provider per vertical
Hey Will, thanks for your review! Glad that you like it. We are just starting out and will be building the app towards becoming a one stop shop while travelling. What kind of services would you like to see in the Mitty?
Also, do you think you will be using this app in your hometown as well? As you mention, it saves a lot of screen real estate, so for some people, it's good to have everything in one place.
@Rayevk Congrats on a great launch. I Tried this app. It is awesome. There are more apps available in the store providing similar integrations, but the number of services it is providing altogether is simply amazing. I am going to keep using it and hopeful for a very wonderful experience :)
@gaurav_sharma11 Hey Gaurav, thanks for such a feedback! So happy you find it useful. We are also very curious if users will continue to use Mitty in their hometown as well. E.G. My girlfriend hates having a lot of apps, and she started to use Mitty almost for everything now in London (ordering food, booking train tickets, reserving restaurants). Let us know your thoughts in couple of weeks ;)

Similar to requesting Uber, Grab, etc. in Google Maps, but add curated apps in a similar workflow/app.
Pros:Really cool UX/UI, seamless and easy-to-access travel apps in one place.
Cons:Combined list/view of upcoming trips, travel itinerary, etc.
Hey Rustam! Thanks for your suggestion :) Travel Itinerary and upcoming trips is one of the things we think to be starting working on! Will keep you updated :)
Hey Setiz, thanks for your review! We have decided to test couple of our assumptions firstly before we dive into integrating apps through API's. We are now starting to build deep integrations with key service providers. Please stay tuned and we will definitely deliver a one app you will ever need while travelling.
As we like to say, Rome wasn't built in a day. :)))

Hey PH, Kani from Mitty team here.
👋 First of all, thanks @gillianim for hunting us
🚀Mitty is an All in one Travel App that lets you instantly use all essential travel services while travelling around the world.
📖Story
We are a team of travel enthusiasts from Kyrgyz Republic who decided to launch this project due to our frustration of spending too much time while travelling on googling basic things like what kind of app to use for booking a restaurant or train ticket. Combined with our belief that an individual does not need hundreds of apps and will eventually use 10-15 most essential ones, we thought having all the services in one place is a way to go.
💡Solution
We created an easy to use app with minimalistic interface with 15 services that switch from one service provider to another depending on where you are. Just tap on the service you would like to use and Mitty will instantly open the local service provider. At the moment it’s only available in 12 most visited cities in the world, but we will integrate more cities shortly. We have also added a bit of information about the city with basic info and key attractions. Best part is that if you live in one of the cities that Mitty supports, you can continue to use it instead of having 15 different apps on the phone (hence saving storage and battery).
🗺️ Curation methodology:
We decided to integrate one local leader for each service category, so that travellers don’t need to decide on which service provider to choose from. Our methodology takes into consideration following factors: popularity, interface design, functionality. For example OpenTable will be preferred restaurant booking platform for American and European cities, whereas Zomato will be preferred in Dubai since it has significantly more restaurants to choose from in that region. We are open to suggestions from the community, and users can add a suggestion for the better service provider inside the app.
Current features include:
🍔 Order food delivery
🚄 Book train tickets
🏨 Book a hotel
🎢 Browse and buy experiences

🆘 Call emergency numbers
🏹Mitty roadmap
- Collapse service screen (at the moment as soon as you close the service, your session finishes and new session needs to be started)
- Log in to service with one tap
- Deep API integrations for better UX
🙏 Thanks
- @gillianim for your support
- @ethnoza for insights about travel
We'll be here all day to answer any questions you might have, so ask away! Cheers! 🍻
Full marks for ease of use, usefulness, and the fact there's really no learning curve... Nicely done, now get even more destinations on there!
Pros:Super sleek, seamless, and most of all: it's practical!!
Cons:I've yet to find any
Hey Sydney! Thanks for trying out Mitty. Please let us know how you will use it overtime :)
Damn smooth, beautifully played guys 🔥💪 Question: how did you go about choosing which companies/service providers to integrate for each category?
Hopping to Paris next week and will be giving it a live try ;) 🚀
@sydney_thiam Hey Sydney! So happy you like it ;)
We have a set of criteria that all service providers go through: popularity, interface design, functionality. After we check each available options in the city we rate each factor and choose the one which has highest "Mitty" rating. In addition, users can suggest services in the app as well.
Hi guys, thanks for sharing! Very cool product. BTW did you name your app after Walter Mitty? :)
@afanasiy Hey Afanasiy! That's correct. You get the prize ;)
We think the way Walter Mitty was represented in the movie is exactly what we want to achieve. With one app you can go anywhere in the world without any preparation and feel totally comfortable there :)
