Santa Monica, United States of AmericaProject Summary
Softermii developed four Android applications for a freelance developer / boutique tech agency, including an apartment-finding app with directory, images, and filtering features. The vendor refactored inherited, disorganized code and staffed projects by workload, delivering high-quality Android builds; several apps were featured on Google Play and one reached roughly 500,000 downloads. Communication and responsiveness were strong despite time-zone differences.
Key Challenges
- Project scope grew beyond a single freelancer’s capacity
- Inherited disorganized codebase required rapid refactoring
- Strict design requirements and the need to adapt to new Android design guidelines
- Staffing and communication across parallel projects
Project Deliverables
- Four Android mobile applications
- Apartment-finding app with a semi-curated directory, images, multimedia content, and custom filtering
- Refactored and reworked existing/disordered codebases
- Ongoing maintenance and support for delivered apps
Project Solution
Softermii took over and completed multiple Android projects, refactoring and reworking messy inherited code, implementing the designer's vision while adapting to updated Android design guidelines, and assigning developers based on workload. The team used JIRA, Trello, and Skype for ticketing and communication, and provided ongoing maintenance after delivery.
Project Outcome
- Several apps were featured on Google Play
- One app achieved a 4.8-star rating
- The most successful app reached about 500,000 downloads
- Clients provided positive feedback on code quality and referred additional work
