Project Summary

Qubika (formerly December Labs) developed a React Native mobile application for a smart pillbox startup, delivering both frontend and backend work for Android and iOS. The app enables account creation, Bluetooth pairing with the pillbox, compartment programming, smart alarms, push notifications, and reporting for caregivers. The client praised the team's quality, speed, communication via Slack and Trello, and hands-on management.

Key Challenges

  • Transition from a skeleton app built by individual developers and small firms to a fully built, market-ready product.

Project Deliverables

  • Mobile application for Android and iOS (React Native)
  • Backend and frontend development
  • Account creation and user management
  • Bluetooth pairing and pillbox connectivity
  • Pillbox compartment programming
  • Smart alarms and push notifications
  • Medication adherence reporting for caregivers

Project Solution

December Labs built the Android and iOS mobile application using React Native and delivered both frontend and backend development. The product allows users to create accounts, connect to the pillbox via Bluetooth, program which compartment holds which medicine, and receive smart alarms and push notifications with time windows for taking pills. The application also generates reports about medication adherence that can be sent to caregivers. The vendor staffed the project flexibly (typically 1–3 developers) and added designers as needed.

Project Outcome

  • Provided excellent service and higher quality than prior vendors
  • Delivered reliable and faster development without sacrificing product quality
  • Used Slack and Trello for effective communication and held weekly meetings
  • Management was present and responsive, including in-person visits
  • Did not charge extra for a missed deadline and maintained transparency
