WMUR: This app helps people with special needs make friends

WMUR: This app helps people with special needs make friends. “In its first stage, the web app is a website that operates like an app. As she works to build the database and gain users, the focus is on chatting. In the next six months or so, [Juliana] Fetherman hopes to have the iPhone and Android app developed. MAF asks users their name, age, location and diagnosis. Eventually, the algorithm will match people based off diagnoses. Currently, it shows everybody’s location (based off of zip code only) and allows people to connect with one another.”
