Project Summary

Xmartlabs developed an Android health-tracking application in Java based on the client's existing iOS solution, enabling asthma patients to log attacks, complete quality-of-life surveys, and receive lifestyle advice informed by fitness, medication, and environmental data. They provided QA, code review oversight by a senior programmer, and adapted iOS designs for Android while integrating with the client's tools (Slack, Google Hangouts, and Jira). The Android app has earned industry awards and the client reports high satisfaction with the team's processes and responsiveness.
