Successful start for the "Was Geht" app: 18th place in the app charts!
The "Was Geht" app celebrated its eagerly awaited release just in time for the start of the Maschsee Festival - and with resounding success. On the very first day, the app reached 18th place in the Apple app charts in the "Lifestyle" category, holding its own against established brands such as Mercedes and Bumble. Hundreds of users downloaded the app within the first 24 hours and began to discover the wide range of events on offer in Hanover and the region. Within the first three days, thousands of users from Hanover and the region now have the app on their smartphones.
The response to the "Was Geht" app has exceeded all expectations. Developed by BitPioneers GmbH from Hanover and supported by Hannover Marketing und Tourismus GmbH, the app offers an innovative platform for events of all kinds - from concerts and parties to cultural highlights. Thanks to personalised recommendations, users are always informed about the hottest events in their area.
Successful start thanks to a strong concept
The successful concept of the "Was Geht" app is based on three pillars:
- Smart: The app provides personalised event recommendations based on users' individual preferences and locations. So every event tip becomes a hit.
- Social: Thanks to the integrated social features, users can share their experiences and keep the community up to date on exciting events.
- Sexy: A modern and intuitive design as well as regular updates ensure an optimal user experience and keep users interested.
From locals for locals:
Behind the app is a team that lives and loves Hanover. This proximity to the local scene makes it possible to recommend authentic events that other platforms often miss out on. This not only promotes a sense of community, but also strengthens the city's cultural diversity.
Culture for all:
The "Was Geht" app has set itself the task of helping all Hanoverians
facilitate access to cultural events and promote their participation. The app offers a targeted search for accessible events and represents events from different cultures, interests and social groups. It also promotes environmental sustainability through location-based event recommendations that support local communities and reduce long journeys.
A great start - and it continues
The overwhelming response to the release day shows that Hannover is hungry for a platform like "Was Geht". The app has already proven on the first day that it is more than just an event platform - it is a movement that brings people together and enriches the cultural life of the city.
About "Was Geht"
The idea for the "Was Geht" app came from a successful Instagram page that gained over 46,000 followers within a year. The app is the next step in bringing Hanover's vibrant cultural and event scene closer to even more people.
