You don’t want to choose a place that is empty, but you also don’t want it to be too crowded or have the wrong “vibe.” This is where uCiC comes in. uCiC comes from “you see, I see.” In other words, it is a social app that allows users to trade images of specific locations, in real-time, so that you can see what is going on at that location before you even leave your home.

This is a great way to figure out which places you want to go to, especially if you’re trying to decide between clubs that are across town. Hopefully, too, it’ll help you to make the right decision the first time, and not spend extra money on an Uber across town to see if another club is better than the one you were just at.

How uCiC Works

Once you make an account, you can connect with other users on the app who are already at the club or event you might want to go to, and ask them for an image request of what the place is currently like. However, uCiC isn’t just for a night out. It is a great app to use if you have a specific question about a place but aren’t able to find the information you need.

For example, if you already made it home but realized that you forgot your keys at a coffee shop, you can post a question in the app about it. If someone is passing by that shop, or already there, they can notify you that they found your missing keys by sending you a photo of them.

Feel free to be creative with what you use the app for. Their website advertises a range of uses, from asking others about wait times or a line at a restaurant, to help with homework, to whether or not a toy store has an item you’re looking for. You’ll never wait more than a few minutes for a response to a question, which is a nice perk.

After users receive your question and respond to it with a photo or video, you can send him or her “good karma,” which is basically “liking” his or her response, or a thank you. This “good karma” then helps the person who answered your question to ask his or her own question. Lastly: you can even post your uCiC photos on social media, to encourage your friends to meet you wherever you are.
