Project Summary

Uptech developed an MVP iOS app for a video-mapping startup (Yaza), providing UX/UI design and engineering to address GPS, large video handling, performance optimization, and battery management. The vendor practiced agile two-week sprints, conducted customer and problem validation, produced high-fidelity mockups prior to implementation, and delivered stable code. The client signed an ongoing fixed-rate staffing contract and continues to collaborate with Uptech.

Key Challenges

  • Build an MVP that handles large video files and preserves authentication
  • Optimize performance and battery usage for video and GPS features
  • Precisely locate and pin the recorded video location in dense urban environments
  • Validate the product-market fit through customer and problem validation
  • Collaborate effectively on UX design despite remote constraints

Project Deliverables

  • iOS MVP
  • High-fidelity UX mockups
  • Iterative UX/UI design work
  • Stable iOS builds with performance and battery optimizations

Project Solution

Uptech accelerated all facets of development to deliver an iOS MVP, conducting customer and problem validation before design. They iterated on initial designs into high-fidelity mockups over three months prior to coding, practiced agile two-week sprints with prioritized sprint planning, and implemented the app with a focus on UX, video handling, GPS functionality, performance optimization, and battery management.

Project Outcome

  • Delivered stable, high-quality builds with minimal bugs
  • Client signed an ongoing fixed-rate staffing contract for continued work post-MVP
  • Faster design iteration and improved UX from collaborative design efforts
