I really loved the feature of Brighton Life App, It would be helpful for locals, commuters and travelers alike. The best part of this article was it has touched almost all the important aspects which are crucial for any individual. One major shortcoming was you missed the safety & security aspect, although Brighton is a well reputed place there might be some places which might not be so friendly to tourists. I think the list would have been complete with the mentions of apps like GeoSure Global, Safe Around, Area Vibes etc. The location safety scores of GeoSure will be handy for tourists and Area Vibes will be useful for someone moving in.
Even though the app has been developed in partnership with Young People in Sunderland, there is no specific upper age range or area where you have to live to use the app so anyone aged 13+ can use the app no matter where they live.
