Project Summary
Algoworks designed and built iOS and Android mobile apps for a local-media social platform focused on promoting small businesses. They led discovery, branding, UX/UI and produced design prototypes while working closely with the founder. The vendor was responsive, used Basecamp for project management, and adhered to timelines throughout the engagement.
Key Challenges
- Needed a mobile app to extend an existing social site for local promotion
- Required a cost-effective development partner compared to expensive U.S. vendors
- Needed features to target local audiences (radius-based local posts and group visibility)
Project Deliverables
- iOS mobile application
- Android mobile application
- Discovery and design prototypes
- Local-targeting slider feature for posts
- Group-posting functionality (10 groups)
Project Solution
Algoworks performed end-to-end mobile development: they ran discovery, created design examples and prototypes, estimated hours, and staffed the build. They designed and implemented core social features focused on local discovery — including group posting, a Local Post button and a slider to limit post visibility by mile radius — and built native apps for both iOS and Android. The team managed the project via Basecamp and communicated regularly with the founder and the project manager (Saurabh).
Project Outcome
- App launched and is visually clean and smooth according to the client
- App was ready to demonstrate to investors after a final update
- Client reported high satisfaction with responsiveness and project management (Basecamp) and praised the team lead
