Project Summary

Bixlabs developed an iOS dating app from PDF wireframes, delivering an alpha version and assisting with hosting and security decisions. The vendor provided a dedicated project manager and a permanent coder, offered design tweaks including logo changes, and advised the non-technical founder throughout launch-related activities. The engagement began in September/October 2016 and remains ongoing as the team iterates toward a beta launch.

Key Challenges

Client only had wireframes and needed a partner to build the iOS app and fill gaps in knowledge for launching and securing the product.

Project Deliverables

iOS mobile app built from PDF wireframes
Design and logo tweaks
Hosting and security recommendations and implementations
Ongoing project management with a dedicated project manager and a permanent coder

Project Solution

Bixlabs took PDF wireframes and built the iOS app, providing design feedback and small tweaks to the logo and visuals. The engagement included a dedicated project manager who coordinated designers and developers as needed and one permanent coder assigned to the client. Bixlabs also advised on hosting, security, and procedural elements required to launch the app and used weekly calls and tools such as Google Hangouts, Google Docs, and Instabug for collaboration and issue capture.

Project Outcome

The alpha version was completed and the team is making tweaks to prepare for a beta launch.
The client reports a strong partnership and qualitative improvements to the product, though no quantitative metrics were available yet.
