Scriba is a mobile app that allows users to post and view messages at locations the user is currently in. The app includes:
Map view interface: The app displays nearby posted messages using Google Maps API.
Categorization and filtering: Map icon images denotes the message's category. Tapping the icon brings up the expanded information for that post.
Engagement and interaction tools: Users can tap the bottom right pencil icon to post their own message at their location. The posts page lists messages in the area. Tapping a message will bring up that message's expanded information page. The message page shows that message's location, author, the message, time of submission, and its total votes.
Sorted messages: Users can sort messages based on their distance, time of posting, or by their rating.
