Project Summary

Creativa Consultores was brought in to fix and finish an iOS novel-publishing app after a previous vendor failed, performing roughly 25% new development and 75% redesign. The app uses Firebase and SQL to let users create accounts, upload and manage writing (split into 625-word increments), and monetize those increments. The team completed the app to meet the published launch deadline and continues to provide maintenance; the client praised their communication and responsiveness.

Key Challenges

  • Build an iOS app to act as a publisher and avoid traditional publisher revenue splits
  • Replace a failed vendor and fix a poorly designed product
  • Implement user accounts and a content management portal integrated with Firebase/SQL
  • Split uploaded writing into 625-word increments and enable per-increment payments

Project Deliverables

  • Redeveloped iOS app
  • Redesigned user interface
  • Backend integration with Firebase and SQL
  • Ongoing maintenance and support

Project Solution

Creativa Consultores' CIO César redeveloped the iOS app, performing about 75% redesign work and 25% new development. He worked with a UI specialist (hired by the client), joined late in the timeline, completed the app by the published launch deadline, and continues to provide maintenance and support.

Project Outcome

  • Met public launch deadline through intensive work
  • App has been stable with rare crashes
  • Strong communication and reliable project management
