Digital Family-Organizing Apps

Squarehub is a Family Calendar App That Makes Planning Easy

— December 18, 2013 — Business
When the fridge isn’t good enough for your on-the-go life, a family calendar app can really help you handle the logistics. Families who are constantly on the go and have children who participate in multiple after school activities will find ‘Squarehub’ a more effective alternative to a paper family planner.

The CEO of the family calendar app is Dave Cotter. He says he came up with the idea when he realized how much planning goes into moving his children around from his house to school and to his ex wife’s house.

One of the big positives of this is that it is easy to reach at any time and you don’t need to have an iPhone to see it. The app can be reached from an android and even a PC. Not only that, but it has more privacy than Facebook and can be used as a sort of beginner’s social network.
Trend Themes
1. Mobile Family Organizer Apps - Opportunity to develop mobile apps that help families streamline their busy schedules and manage multiple activities and logistic complexities on the go.
2. Cross-platform Calendar Solutions - Potential for developing cross-platform calendar apps that can be accessed from various devices like smartphones, tablets, and PCs, providing convenience and accessibility to users.
3. Privacy-focused Social Networking - Opportunity to create social networking platforms with enhanced privacy features to cater to users who want a more private and controlled environment for sharing family updates and coordinating.
Industry Implications
1. Mobile App Development - Disruptive innovation opportunities lie in the development of user-friendly and feature-rich mobile apps specifically designed for family organization and logistics management.
2. Calendar and Scheduling Software - There is a potential for disruptive innovation in the calendar and scheduling software industry, with the development of advanced cross-platform solutions that cater to the needs of busy families.
3. Social Networking Platforms - Innovative social networking platforms with a focus on privacy and family-oriented features can create disruptive opportunities in the industry by serving as a viable alternative to mainstream social media platforms.
