Two sides of the same housing search
Students need somewhere to live and people they want to live with. Roome connects those decisions: explore properties, describe your preferences, find potential housemates and start a conversation.
BYBOWU built the core React Native app for iPhone and Android, the Laravel backend and the admin panel. Roome is a client-owned product.
A shared property catalogue
Property search supports budget, campus distance, bedroom and move-in filters. Importers bring listing information from multiple property sources into a common catalogue.
Students can save properties or create a spare-room listing with photos and details. The app connects finding a place with finding people to share it.
Profiles, matching and conversations
Housemate profiles, a lifestyle quiz and preference-based matching help students explore potential housemates. University verification and profile-completion badges support the onboarding journey.
Messaging includes chat requests, text and image sharing, plus reporting and blocking controls.
The tools behind the app
The admin panel brings together students, properties, universities, campuses, guides and reports. It gives the client team tools to maintain content and support the people using the app.
