It is designed to give both residents of Birmingham, who may not have fully sampled all the city has to offer (including students), and tourists visiting for a limited time inspiration for days out (be that cultural, historical, food or shopping orientated).
For more information about iBrum, please read this article by Redbrick, the student publication of the University of Birmingham.
iBrum was developed in the context of a university seminar on digital humanities. Content selection and data collection was done by the students, development of the app itself by Phrasys.
