App Users can switch from List View to Map View and can filter services that are just open from the side menu. Users can click on any service to get details like contact info, transit directions and schedule for that service. Flag button on Home Screen will help you connect to the App Admin or Service Provider for that resource. Users can click on Kudos button to show appreciation for the services they like. If you want to mark any service for future reference, click on the star icon in service detail page to add them to My Favorites.

If you are doing community service and interested in listing your service, you can add/manage a service by signing up in the app. You can also update the number of beds available for shelters that you manage. All details entered by the service providers will take some time to get approved before getting published in the app. If you have any questions or see information that is not up to date, please report changes using Give Feedback in side menu.

Utilized correctly in every city by adding all of each city's programs could make this the best and most useful app for anyone that needs any type of assistance in any city. To the developers please contact me if you would like my opinion on how to make his one of the most used apps worlwide. I was houseless and wish something like this was out there when I needed it I would love to share my ideas to help better this and make you number 1!!

This takes a bit to organize then it works very well for finding services in your area with decently updated information. I was impressed with the application. I have been homeless in my area for almost 20yrs. The information is top drawer and the app is easy to use to find shelter for the night.

Needs more options it only gives you schedules most know of. And alot are missing. Didn't help me at all. Not updated or anything for Corona quarantine and several things OLYMPIA, WA does offer are not listed. It just lists the places every city in America offers pour or homeless people. Like the Mission, Salation Army, well duh who doesn't have one of these.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We currently list resources specific to Youth across US. We also have resources for everyone in few cities in west coast. We will update you once we add resources in Olympia,WA. Please contact us at shelterappinfo@gmail.com in case you have any additional questions/issues.
