Inspiration
Imagine yourself, traveling the world. Enjoying the breath of fresh air that is a new culture, the people, the language and the food, especially the food. Unfortunately, your digestive systems doesn't always share your passion for trying new things. Oh no! Suddenly, the urge to make a deposit in the porcelain bank hits you like a truck! Where do you go? Who do you ask?
The above story ends badly too many times to people all over the world and we decided it was time to put an end to it. We needed to find a way to help those in need in these dire yet not so uncommon situations.
What it does
Enter: ShitHappens. This app provides users with information about accessible restrooms all over the map! It does not end there however!
Through the efforts of great people like yourself, people all over the globe can contribute to a public repository of information regarding your "Personal Throneroom". Want to know how good the quality of the toilet paper is? We got you! Want to know if the gap between the door is large enough to make awkward eye contact with others? We got you! Want to know if the stall graffiti is interesting? We. Got. You.
This app isn't just some bunch of random internet strangers helping each other out, its more than that. We provide more than just a restroom finder, we provide a community, nay a family.
