The problem were the lines outside of restaurants and other establishments that were doing their best to stay open in spite of laws limiting their capacity in response to COVID-19. David Chura knew he could come up with a technology-based solution for these lines -- there was an urgent need for it and he had the time to work on it. What SafeQueue actually does is quite simple. If you’re within 1000 feet of a business, as determined by GPS, the app invites you to join a virtual line called a SafeQueue. There’s no need to call ahead to make a reservation, sign-up, or volunteer personal information. All that’s needed is proximity - and it allows people to “line up” for goods or services while maintaining safe social distancing.
