Abstract
In this thesis, errands are considered as tasks that are paid for upon completion. Some people are willing to run an errand if they are paid, and some people need help with an errand and are willing to pay the person or people who complete it. With this thesis, an Android application called ErrandMe was developed to satisfy the needs of both groups. Every errand has a title, description, pay, currency, location and optionally an estimated completion time. Geolocation is an important part of ErrandMe. If allowed, the application tracks the location of the user’s device, which can be used to add and find errands, but also track the distance from the location of an errand.
