Welcome App
Project Summary
SapientPro was hired by a Dutch nonprofit (the Welcome App) to revamp an existing mobile application that supports newcomers and refugees. The vendor overhauled the app’s UI/UX, completed incomplete designs, and implemented several key features including a question portal, social features for trainings and events, and an in-app translation/interpreter. The update recently launched and early stakeholder feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
Key Challenges
- Need for a central mobile platform to deliver programs, trainings, events, and Q&A for newcomers
- Handling sensitive expert-directed questions while also providing community-based support
- Incomplete wireframes and designs that required immediate UI/UX design work before development could continue
Project Deliverables
- Updated iOS and Android mobile application
- Redesigned UI/UX
- Question portal for users to ask experts or the local community
- Social networking space for trainings, events, and programs
- In-app translation/interpreter feature (40-second interpreter)
Project Solution
SapientPro took over and completed the updated iOS and Android versions of the Welcome App, redesigning the app flow and implementing new capabilities. They refined incomplete wireframes and provided UI/UX design work so developers could proceed, and delivered functionality including a question portal, social networking features for trainings/events, and a planned in-app translation/interpreter service.
Project Outcome
- Launched the updated app with initial stakeholder testing showing overwhelmingly positive feedback
- Improved collaboration and responsiveness with senior members available to support calls
- Progress tracked through Telegram and Redmine with an active, responsive project manager
