Project Summary

Dark Bear Web Solutions developed and designed the frontend and backend of a social media app (Bridge Messenger) and its accompanying website, working directly with the client after removing an intermediary project manager. The vendor delivered the iOS app, ongoing updates (including an upcoming Android release), and maintained close communication throughout the engagement, earning positive feedback and high responsiveness ratings.

Key Challenges

  • Communication was blocked by a project manager acting as a middleman
  • Delays and incomplete work due to inability to communicate directly with developers
  • Need to complete the project promptly while ensuring product quality

Project Deliverables

  • iOS mobile app
  • Website
  • Backend functionality
  • Frontend functionality
  • Android app (update)

Project Solution

Dark Bear removed the communication bottleneck by working directly with the client to develop and design the app and website, implementing backend and frontend functionality. They built the initial app for iOS, iterated on UI designs with the client, and continued to support updates and testing toward an Android release.

Project Outcome

  • Received good feedback and ratings for the app
  • Preparing a marketing push coinciding with Android and iPhone updates
  • App remained in testing with servers to validate stability
  • Received multiple offers to buy the apps for over six figures and declined
