Project Summary

Appinventiv developed an iOS prototype for an electronic storybook platform based on the client's wireframes and a detailed functional design document. The vendor delivered TestFlight builds and staged development to gather user feedback, implemented about 40% of planned features to date, and managed the process using Basecamp and InVision.

Key Challenges

Needed a more functional prototype to obtain user feedback beyond wireframes and surveys.
Local Hong Kong developers lacked the depth of resources the client required.
The web prototype could not provide reliable microphone and camera control, necessitating a native solution.

Project Deliverables

iOS app prototype
Functional prototype for user testing (TestFlight builds)
Wireframes and a detailed functional design document
Staged development components for iterative feedback

Project Solution

Appinventiv received wireframes and a detailed functional design document and developed a functional iOS prototype to gather user feedback. They advised on platform strategy (choosing iOS first), produced TestFlight builds, staged development into component parts for iterative testing, and used Basecamp and InVision to manage communications and prototyping.

Project Outcome

The product is partially functional with approximately 40% of features implemented and TestFlight builds available for user feedback.
The engagement produced a managed, staged development process with responsive communication and generally early delivery on deadlines.
