Project Summary

Geniusee was engaged by a retail technology company to build an Android version of an existing iOS app, implementing the same functionality and delivering an MVP quickly. The vendor delivered an MVP within the first month and continued to iterate on features, working closely with the client via Slack and ad hoc meetings. The client praised Geniusee's end-to-end handling from idea and design through development.

Key Challenges

Need to support retailers that use Android in-house rather than iOS
Migrate and reproduce all functionality from an existing iOS app on Android
Deliver an MVP quickly and enable further feature development thereafter

Project Deliverables

Android MVP application
Parity of iOS functionality on Android
Ongoing feature updates and enhancements

Project Solution

The vendor ported the functionality of the client's existing iOS application to Android, recreating features and UI/UX parity. The engagement included selection based on references and interviews; Geniusee assigned a development lead, project manager, designer and developer to deliver the Android app and iterate after an initial MVP release.

Project Outcome

MVP delivered within the first month
Continued addition of new features after initial release
Strong ongoing communication via Slack and ad hoc meetings; vendor handled end-to-end development
