Filip Brož It's finally Friday and I have a free weekend ahead of me. Summer is starting outside, restaurants and pubs are already unpacking their gardens and after a hard work week I would go for a cold beer. However, the question remains, who will go with me and where should I go?
I pick up my iPhone, unlock it and scroll through my apps. Beer?! That's it, exactly what I'm looking for. I'll try to call a few friends and immediately see who has free time and doesn't know how to fill it. Pepa, Tomáš, Erika... no, she doesn't drink beer, but Klárka does. I'll add a few more people with a smile. Well, what about Martin, he can't be missing at any event, but I don't have him in the application.
Does not matter. All you need is a smartphone with the iOS operating system or Android, and I will simply invite him to the new application from Staropramen. I will send him an invitation via Facebook, email, SMS or Twitter. Once he downloads the app, he can immediately respond to my Friday Challenge that I'm about to create.
In the Beer app?! you first select friends from your list and then choose the date, time and location of the event. I set the date for today's 20 p.m. and use the automatic search to enter my favorite pub. I send the invitation, after which all that remains is to wait for friends to react to incoming notifications (if they have them enabled). To confirm, all you have to do is swipe your finger on the notification, and in a few minutes the notifications tell me that Martin, Tomáš and Klárka are going for a beer. Everyone in the app can see who's going and who's staying today, and can also invite other friends.
Who wouldn't know the way to the selected establishment, can directly from the Pivo app?! open navigation in maps from Apple. Those who are forgetful will find it useful to be able to quickly add an event to the calendar. Just one click and an event called Beer! will appear on your calendar.
This is how the way you start your Friday (and any other) beer gathering can look new. Beer app?! is the responsibility of Staropramen, but it certainly does not set conditions in it that you and your friends invited in this way would have to virtually consume only its brand, or be invited only to facilities branded by it.
For some, a similar application in the era of group conversations on Facebook or quick communication via iMessage, intended for only one purpose - invitation to a beer - may seem useless, but what about the Beer application?! you entice your friends, it can be an interesting alternative to agree on the evening program. Beer?! can be found for free in the App Store, so the trial costs nothing.

I would still see one shortcoming in that it is not possible to comment on an invitation for a beer. We use the application, but then we still have to go to Facebook and agree on the details. If in that application it was possible to add comments that only invited users could see and could communicate with each other, this app would not have a problem! :-)
Jesus, that's bullshit.
Soon there will be an application Cígo?!, through which office rats will agree on a cigar in the smoking room. Or the Toilet too?!, when my phone beeps that I haven't pooped in a long time...
I don't understand how people could still go out for beer...
