Moxie’s Future Experience’s team has compiled the following short list of eight apps and sites that will keep you from going down in flames — or maybe spare you considerable drama this Valen4ne’s Day.

How can you have Valen4ne’s Day without the Big Kahuna of on-‐demand services — Ubër. With three different 4ers of service, a parking-‐free, drink-‐limit free night out on the town is par for the course for you and your special someone.

If your Day of Love quickly spirals into a Date From Hell, get a quick, authen4c out sent directly to your phone from KnockToCall. This iOS-‐only app saves you from a bad date by sending a fake emergency call directly to your iPhone aUer you knock it. Hopefully, you’ll be able to do it without your date no4cing.

On-‐demand flowers, beginning at $35, are available seven days a week and can be delivered within 90 minutes of your order from your phone. Impossible? Bloom that!
@MoxieFutureX
Dinner, flowers and a movie are so cliché, you say? Then try Spinlister, an Airbnb for bicycles, and hit the road wherever you two are. It’s a global service that won’t leave you cash-‐light, the way purchasing a bike will.
@MoxieFutureX
Who s4ll calls to make reserva4ons at restaurants? With OpenTable you’ll avoid the noisy backgrounds, the impa4ent maître d’s, and most importantly, the busy signals. Take it even further and get to your next des4na4on faster by paying for dinner in advance. Just be sure to explain to your date that you aren’t skipping out on the check at dinner so that she won’t start knocking on her phone.
@MoxieFutureX
We would never advise you to go out on a first date on Valentine’s Day, but if so possessed by some cavalier desire to test the fates, why not give Hinge a try? This dating app allows you to “vet” potential candidates through friends on your social networks. Hinge removes the creep factor from stalking your friends’ friends on social media.
@MoxieFutureX
If all else fails and you simply don’t have a clue as to where to take your date — or should all your best laid plans go up in smoke — you can always check out Waze, the world's largest community-based traffic and navigation app. If you check your inbox, you’ll find a message allowing you to “Search Love” — crowdsourced suggestions from users on where to take your date, conveniently mapped out via cuddly red pins. As much as this makes perfect sense, and as much as we use Waze, we sincerely hope you won’t have to resort to a talking map for ideas for Valentine’s Day.
@MoxieFutureX
Should Valen4ne’s Day come and go and you’re just as single the day aUer as you were the day before, get the jump on next year with tried and true MeetUp.com, where you can find a group and get social IRL with like-‐minded individuals in virtually any category. On the slim chance you don’t see anything you like, you can always start your own.
