Project Summary

Riktam Technologies designed and developed a customizable mobile tour guide app for Android and iOS for CaptivaTour. Development took about two months per platform and the vendor continues to provide support and feature tweaks. The app features a responsive, easy-to-use UI and card-based layouts enabling multiple tour durations, and has seen positive user reception and increased downloads.

Key Challenges

  • Few benchmarks and poor quality of existing competitors
  • Need to support different user categories (dedicated history buffs vs casual viewers)

Project Deliverables

  • Mobile app for Android
  • Mobile app for iOS
  • Responsive user interface
  • Customizable tour features (card-based content layout)
  • Ongoing support and maintenance

Project Solution

We engaged Riktam for the entire design and development of the app. While design was outsourced by Riktam to a foreign designer, the entire development was done by their team in India. The app development took about 2 months each for the Android and iOS versions. Riktam worked with us to build a very responsive and easy user interface. The app has enabled our tours to be highly customizable (e.g. tourists can choose among three tour durations) using a unique card-based content layout. Riktam continues to support us on additional features, tweaks, etc.

Project Outcome

  • Client expressed satisfaction and praised vendor responsiveness
  • Positive user reviews and consistent increase in downloads
  • Quick resolution of issues, bugs, and OS incompatibilities
