Unmessify is an app that aims to make the hostel mess… less of a mess.
Say hello to a convenient and modern user interface to check the mess menu, stay on top of announcements, and view the laundry schedule.
The app was originally made in under 24 hours during a hackathon with a wider scope, by Kanishka Chakraborty (that’s me) and my friend Teesha Saxena (go check out her website). The app continues to be developed as new features are requested and bugs are reported. Feedback is highly appreciated.
