Three Village Local acts as a digital gathering place for Long Island’s Three Village area, helping residents discover shops, restaurants, events, and local stories. By launching a native mobile app with Twinr, they created a seamless, mobile-first hub that connects residents and small businesses with real-time updates, favorites, and reviews.
Three Village Local, serving the Three Village area in New York, completely reimagined community engagement by partnering with Twinr, leading to a 40% increase in user engagement, a 35% boost in local business visibility, and a 25% rise in event attendance, all within the first few months.
With more residents looking for mobile-first ways to discover local shops, events, and stories, Three Village Local realized their web platform wasn’t delivering the fast, intuitive experience the community expected. Engagement was slipping, businesses lacked visibility, and real-time updates weren’t possible. The missing piece? A dedicated mobile app.
Despite having a strong web presence, Three Village Local faced challenges familiar to many community-driven platforms: residents and local businesses wanted a more seamless mobile experience, but the platform only existed online.
Without a dedicated app, they struggled with:
No native mobile experience - Residents preferred an app-based hub but had to rely on the website
Low visibility for local businesses- Small shops lacked a direct, mobile-first discovery channel
Disconnected content- Events, news, and stories were scattered, making them hard to follow
No real-time engagement- Without push notifications, users missed important updates
Limited personalization- Users couldn’t save favorites or create a tailored community feed
As the Three Village Local team put it:
“We wanted a single place where people could easily find everything happening in the community, without needing to search across multiple sources.” – Three Village Local Team

Instead of investing in costly development, Three Village Local turned to Twinr, a no-code platform that enabled them to transform their existing website into a fully branded mobile app, fast, affordably, and without technical overhead.
With Twinr, Three Village Local was able to:
Launch their app in weeks without hiring developers or rebuilding from scratch
Provide a mobile-first hub for browsing local shops, events, and community stories
Send push notifications for event reminders, local deals, and urgent updates
Offer personalized experiences with favorites and tailored community feeds
Boost visibility for local businesses through a dedicated discovery channel
Strengthen their community presence with an app icon on residents’ phones
All of this was achieved with full branding control, seamless syncing with their existing site, and minimal maintenance for the team.
Before the app, Three Village Local’s web platform was useful but limited. It lacked the immediacy and convenience of a true mobile-first community hub. After the app launch, everything changed:
Residents could easily discover and support local businesses with just a few taps
Event attendance increased thanks to push notifications and timely reminders
The homescreen app icon boosted visibility, encouraging frequent community engagement
Users enjoyed a more personalized experience, with favorites and curated local feeds
Local businesses gained traction, with more reviews, recommendations, and customer interactions
As the Three Village Local Team put it:
“The Three Village Local app made community discovery effortless, whether it’s finding a coffee shop or checking out an upcoming event, it’s all in one place. Residents and businesses alike are more connected than ever.” – Three Village Local Team
