Fishbit
Project Summary
Cheesecake Labs supplemented the client's development team to build an Android app and enhance an existing iOS app, also providing design input. The engagement delivered the Android product quickly and met all timelines, with the vendor integrated into the client's workflow via Slack and weekly calls. The client, Fishbit, is a small hardware and software company focused on smart aquarium devices and had three full-time staff during the engagement.
Key Challenges
- Small internal team requiring external development support
- Need to build an Android version from scratch
Project Deliverables
- Android mobile application
- Enhancements to existing iOS app
- Design refinements for the Android app
- Code reviews and collaborative development support
Project Solution
Cheesecake Labs built the Android app from provided designs and iterated on those designs during development, while also adding significant improvements to the client's existing iOS base app. Most work focused on mobile development while the client retained responsibility for the backend. The vendor's developers performed code reviews and collaborated with the client's team through Slack and weekly calls; the vendor CEO participated intermittently.
Project Outcome
- Delivered the Android app earlier than expected and met all timelines
- Contributed effectively to the iOS app and improved overall app quality
- Integrated closely with the client's team, resulting in a strong ongoing working relationship
