We are looking for university students to take part in a really interesting research about a new app.
This research will involve you downloading a new app on your phone that is used to keep track of money that is borrowed between friends. You will be required to download this app together with 2 friends and use the app for a couple of weeks. You will then be asked to attend a focus group for 1 hour to discuss the app. Please note your friends will not be required to attend the focus group but they will need to download the app so that they can use it with you.
LOCATION:

DATE:
