Living costs

The App allows students to see living costs data crowdsourced from their peers, so they can have a better idea of what their expenditures would be during their mobility.

Learners are encouraged to share their own experiences through a specific feature accessible via the Share button, as can be seen in the video.

From the crowdsourced database, the App generates a clean visualisation of living costs that gives important information at a glance, while also comparing data with the average for all learners.

Everybody can then explore the information input by students through the living costs App page and switch easily between cities to see the difference.

The living costs page can be accessed from the mobility journey menu, from the Discover possible destinations page and from the My Destinations page in the user's profile.

Only logged in users can see the My Destinations page, but the first two options can be used by everyone without needing to register or sign in. However, contributing living costs data through the Share button is possible only for registered users.
