You can easily see the plan of going out with Tossup in the following movie.

Introducing Tossup, a Microsoft Garage project - YouTube


Before I go out somewhere with my friends, I will send a message with SMS etc. and make a promise to meet ......


Often it is impossible for the other party to meet "promptly" saying "I was waiting for another schedule".


If you invite by e-mail, you have to wait for the other's reply, or answer one by one to the other person's question ... ....


I will keep in touch with friends who are busy with work by e-mail or phone ......


There are times when the schedule is not decided easily because timing does not match.


"Let's stop this troublesome thing"


If you use the Tossup application, you can manage the outing plan in one central location. For example, you can pick up a restaurant on the application and pick up some items, so that everyone can vote for "what store do you want to go to eat?"


In addition, when you decide when to wait ... ...


You can check the shop details with the application and evaluate the shop by five stars.


If you let everyone vote where you want to go ......


It is possible to confirm the voting result by using the application.


The Tossup application will do the task of secretary such as dinner party instead, so we can enjoy all the meals without having to worry about troublesome tabulation work.


The screen of the actual application is as follows. On the home screen are teasers from friends such as "Where is your vacation for a dream" or "Do you like breakfast at the beach?"


When you tap the teaser saying "Who will not go to dinner tomorrow?" A list of candidate shops is displayed and you can check the shop name, budget, distance from your location, Yelp review. Tap the heart mark on the right to vote for the store you want to go OK.


With the "comment" function, friends can group chat together and interact with each other such as "I will add the store here to the questionnaire item!"


The questionnaire creation screen looks something like this. You can choose the type of questionnaire from "2 choices question of yes / no", "free description", "enter date and time" "fill in what you want to eat and drink".


The creation screen of "2 choices for yes / no" is as follows, and seems to be able to incorporate multiple questions into one questionnaire.


This Tossup applicationMicrosoft GarageIt was produced as part of the project,IOSWhenAndroidIt is distributed free from July 6, 2015 for free. Since the delivery area is limited only to the United States and Canada and can not be used from Japan yet, I would like to expect future updates such as distribution in Japan and Japanese correspondence.
