NBA player Miles McBride, also known as Deuce, has unveiled Mmotion, a new app designed to connect users based on shared interests and location. Partnering with seasoned startup entrepreneur Joe Einhorn, Mmotion aims to redefine how people form friendships by recommending nearby social venues and facilitating connections through geofencing and state tracking technologies.
Distinct from conventional friendship platforms, Mmotion directly competes with established apps like Snap Map and Find My, as well as Instagram’s recent foray into the location-sharing space. Utilizing a membership-based model, the app allows users to customize their interests, join various interest-based Circles, and engage in private messaging with nearby individuals. Mmotion’s emphasis on personal privacy is evident through its private location history log, enabling users to revisit past exploration spots effortlessly.
Currently available in beta exclusively for New York City residents, Mmotion signifies a shift towards tech-driven social interactions, offering a fresh perspective on fostering meaningful connections in a digital age.
