Answear

Goal

Creating mobile app that would shorten the distance between a user and the brand and also facilitate access to the store with solutions available only on mobile devices, such as PUSH notifications and constant presence on home screen.

What were we responsible for?

developing both iOS and Android apps
running manual tests
active participation in design workshops
project management
UX and UI projects were prepared by our partners from mohi.to.

Challenges

App that handles millions of users is more exposed to bugs or errors. We realized that this app was going to be popular, so we had to make sure is has the highest quality possible.

The fact that any problem within the app could cause significant financial loss was also meaningful. Knowing what was at stake, we had to dig into every detail to provide a top notch solution.

Short path to purchase was another important factor we had to keep in mind. We wanted to make online in-app shopping as easy as possible (UX optimization).
