Project Summary

Newwave Solutions developed the iOS app for Outside, a lifestyle media company, handling iOS coding, upgrades, and bug fixes while adhering to iOS streaming regulations. After release and two quick upgrades, the app's stability and stream dependability improved, leading to higher App Store ratings and increased ad impressions. User engagement rose to nearly six minutes per session (about 12–15 minutes per day). The vendor communicated clearly and responded promptly to issues.
