Problem
In today's hyper-connected digital landscape, individuals often struggle to maintain meaningful, in-person connections with their personal and professional networks due to busy schedules and reliance on superficial online interactions.

The app prioritizes privacy and minimizes digital noise by allowing users to control who they share their location with and by eliminating curated content feeds. UBQT aims to streamline the process of reconnecting with meaningful contacts in real life, fostering stronger relationships and combating the isolation often associated with excessive social media use.
