Project Summary

STX Next rescued and completed a social media photo-sharing app that a prior vendor had failed to deliver by redoing the UI, refactoring backend code, increasing security, and adding missing features. They closed roughly 75 tickets, improved the development cycle with daily builds and clear communication, and helped the client launch the app in June. Stakeholders praised STX Next’s professionalism, transparency, and reliable delivery.

Key Challenges

  • Rescue a poorly built and visually subpar application
  • Improve code quality and security
  • Deliver missing features and make the app usable

Project Deliverables

  • Redesigned UI
  • Refactored backend code
  • Improved code security
  • Implemented features and closed ~75 tickets
  • Launched mobile app

Project Solution

STX Next took over a completed but poor-quality application and performed a full UI redo from the in-app perspective, refactored and cleaned backend code, improved code security, and implemented missing functionality. The team closed approximately 75 tickets to bring the app to usability, worked with the client’s preferred project management tools, and provided frequent builds and daily communication. The engagement included a Head of React Native plus frontend and backend engineers, and resulted in the app being launched in June.

Project Outcome

  • Improved communication and development visibility with daily builds and Slack integration
  • Increased confidence in the business and more predictable delivery
  • App launched in June after fixes and refactor
