Find new exciting experiences and get inspired on your next trip with HeyLets, a discovery-based mobile app that enables users to find activities to enjoy in new cities by giving them access to a variety of user recommendations on different experiences.

 

The free app for iPhone focuses on sharing experiences rather than writing full reviews. HeyLets makes the process of discovery social by enabling users to tell others about experiences like outdoor activities, hotel stays and visits to restaurants and nightlife venues on the social network with a photo and mobile-friendly, 180-character description.

 

After signing up, Heylets asks users about their interests and builds a portfolio of recommendations tailored to their specific preferences, preventing users from having to sift through irrelevant information. The reviews made available to users changes depending on their locations and specific interests.

 

Users can follow people on the app, such as friends, experts and celebrities whose experiences inspire them. To stay up-to-date on popular destinations and cities, users can also view trending experiences to get inspired on their travels or choose to browse the app’s recommendations in cities around the world, including San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Sydney, Melbourne, Toronto and Vancouver
