Inspiration

Managing a shared living space is often chaotic—roommates struggle with chores, forgotten bills, and unclear expectations, leading to unnecessary conflicts. While there are generic task apps, none are specifically designed for co-living. Roomie was created to solve this problem by providing a roommate management system that makes shared living seamless and stress-free.

What it does

Roomie is an all-in-one mobile app that helps roommates:

  • Create an Apartment – Invite roommates and set up shared living spaces.
  • Assign Chores Fairly – Scheduling ensures balance and accountability.
  • Track Expenses & Payments – Split bills.

How we built it

Roomie was developed using: -Frontend: React Native for a smooth cross-platform mobile experience. -Backend: Firebase for real-time database management and authentication.

Challenges we ran into

  • Creating a User-Friendly Experience: Ensuring we didn’t overwhelm users while -keeping the interface intuitive.
  • Encouraging Adoption: Getting roommates to switch from informal methods (whiteboards, group chats) to an organized platform.
  • Data Security: Safeguarding sensitive financial and personal roommate data.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Developed a fully functional task and expense manager.
  • Created an intuitive and aesthetically pleasing user interface.
  • Designed around a fairness system to ensure equal workload distribution.

What's next for RoomieHub
