Project Summary

Cubet Techno Labs developed a native iOS social media platform MVP featuring chat, post interactions, and advanced multi-photo/video upload and editing. The team delivered iterative builds in two-week sprints and ultimately delivered the latest version in January 2018. Communication was consistent with daily check-ins, and the client praised the team’s reliability and technical execution despite occasional time-zone related brevity.
