Favr App
A simple way for neighbors to help each other.
2020 / Personal project / concept / product design / visual design
Favr started during the pandemic, when a lot of people suddenly needed help and others needed ways to make some extra money. The idea was simple: connect people in the same community through small, everyday favors. A small idea for a strange time, and still a favorite of mine.
How the idea works
Favr connects people who need a little help with people nearby who have the time to provide it.
Someone posts a favor, sets a price and people in the neighborhood can offer to help. Ratings add a layer of trust between people who may never have met before.
Categories
A favor could be almost anything: picking up groceries, walking a dog, assembling furniture, cleaning, making a delivery or helping with some yard work.
The categories weren't meant to define what people could ask for. They were simply a way to make nearby help easier to find.

Monetization
Favr takes a small percentage of each completed favor.
The person posting decides how much the favor is worth. Payment happens through the app, keeping the exchange simple for both sides.
