Client Background
A startup launched a new approach to combine online and brick & mortar shopping, using geolocation to allow a shopper to use a mobile app to shop a nearby store.
It notifies the stores that there is a potential buyer nearby, helps them to analyze the potential of engagement, and allows them to present offers relating to what the shoppers are looking for.
Business Challenge
The task was to develop the front-end. The core capability of the app had to be a quick and straightforward exchange of requests and offers between the buyers and the stores. The requests and offers contain short messages, photographs, and voice recordings.
Solution
We delivered the first release of the application for Android in a short period of time. It allowed our client to launch MVP and gain user feedback very quickly.

Client’s Goals
Our client’s need was the creation of a mobile application for E-Commerce. The core task was to make the processes of searching, matching and exchanging information quicker and easier for both buyer and seller. The process for creating the buyers’ requests was simplified. In the new app, buyers could create their requests from short messages, photographs, or audio records in the selected category of goods.
To fulfill these needs our team performed the following tasks:
- Created the front-end to improve the user experience of the application
- Designed a responsive mobile application for different devices (Android and iOS)
- Improved the performance of the trading process
Technical implementation
The MvvmCross framework was used to reduce coding duplication for Android and iOS platforms. Google services were used to supplement the main functionality—searching for the nearby stores, cropping images, etc. This made it easy for buyers to create the requests. They just needed to type a message, record a voice memo, or take a picture of any product in a selected category. Then the sellers of a chosen category were notified about the requests.
