THREE FUN FACTS
🌿 Hana created Go Jauntly app because, despite living in London, which is 47% green space, she wanted to find the best places to walk.
🚶♀️ No Steps Shaming Here: The app offers fun, pressure-free challenges, including a festive Advent Challenge in December, that gives you a nudge to walk, but never tells you off if you don’t hit your target.
😊 Walking is Contagious (in a good way): Nearly 90% of Go Jauntly users who start by walking for leisure, end up walking more for practical journeys as well, like commuting or errands after using the app.

@28:10 How Small Apps Can Succeed Without Massive Ad Budgets: "My advice for any budding app developers or startup founders who can't raise money, who find it really difficult to raise money, which is a significant, is just to look at how you can raise revenue by yourself without having to rely on investment..."
@48:04 Rethinking Tech Entrepreneurship: "You don't need tech to make change happen."
@54:51 The Power of Simple Walking Challenges: "People were between 17 to 20% happier at the end of a walk versus the start of walk. I think the reason why I've put a range there was because, like, very early, very early on it was 17%. It's now 24%. So, it's just that simple measurement of happiness really and that you're having fun and enjoying yourself."
