LookFor, The ‘World’s Dumbest App’ That Actually Helps Users Find Friends in Crowded Places

by E.D.W. Lynch at 5:49 PM on February 12, 2015

Self-described as “The World’s Dumbest App,” LookFor helps people find one another in crowded places through an incredibly simple (or dumb) mechanism–it turns a smartphone’s screen into a flashing, colored beacon. The app’s creators at Retroproof suggest it can be used to find people at crowded concerts, movie theaters, or large outdoor crowds, or it can be used to flag a taxi. LookFor is available for iOS and Android.
