Abstract
DeTravel is an Android application designed to provide travel recommendations by leveraging real-time geolocation data and user preferences. The app also provides an interactive UI for travel enthusiasts to post pictures of their trips and bookmark posts from other travelers. The app integrates two core functionalities: location-based recommendations and social bookmarking. Users receive curated suggestions for nearby attractions, restaurants, and activities tailored to their interests determined through bookmarked posts. DeTravel helps enhance the travel experience through a two-pronged approach – suggest locations based on activity type, and use a social media component to share and bookmark travel experiences. The app is designed to cater to a broad audience, including frequent travelers, solo explorers, families, business professionals and content creators. Through an interactive interface and robust backend infrastructure, DeTravel provides a unique, engaging and adaptive travel companion that evolves with user preferences and geolocation data.
