Abstract
Shopping is one essential activity in every individual’s life. Without shopping,
individuals will not have access to things they need to live comfortably. Handymen also
make our lives easier by offering services we cannot provide for ourselves either due to lack
of skills, time constraints or unavailability of necessary tools.
Shopping and finding handymen are relatively easier in developed countries because
of the ease of accessing shopping centers, and handymen. However, in developing countries,
bad roads and traffic congestion, security and safety threats make these activities much more
difficult.
In this project, a mobile application to locate shops, items, and handymen is
developed to increase the accessibility rate of shops and items, while decreasing security
and safety threats associated with hiring handymen.
