The Down to Lunch App Helps You Firm Up Lunch Plans With Friends

— April 17, 2016 — Tech
Down to Lunch is an innovative new mobile and smartphone app that makes it easier than ever for you to connect with your friends to make lunch plans, or perhaps even go ahead and partake in any of a whole range of activities.

Ultimately, this app makes it easier for people to firm up lunch plans by making communication and planning seamless, easy and flexible.
