Project Approach & Results

We might have various mobile applications out there to stay updated with the trending news, but having a news application that allows users to watch newsreels is a unique concept. As the V***N**** mobile application has a unique concept the client wanted to rule the market offering an easily browsable user interface of the application.

So, our aim for developing the mobile application was to resolve all the issues that users tend to face using different frameworks and approaches. To begin with, we analyzed the concept hypothetically and created a file with the complete details covering all these points, diagrams, scenarios, problems, flow charts, and SRS for the entire workflow and planned the App development process. After finalizing the document, In the third phase, based on the client's requirements and our findings we defined Mobile App architectures for V***N**** App. After that, our mobile app developers started the mobile app development process based on the app design provided by the client. We created the prototype for the V***N**** app with all the native data, After the client's review and confirmation of the prototype. The Mobile app developers started their development process by choosing the best-fit technology for Android, iOS, and the admin panel. We integrated APIs in the V***N**** app and completed the whole app data flow.

We chose native technology Swift for iOS development and Kotlin for Android development and used JSON-based rest API development with Node and Laravel Framework. Hyperlink Infosystem developers used Angular 9 to create an admin panel for basic tasks such as managing reels, users, reel coins, etc. We used web3 for calling smart contracts with the help of Solidity. Our app developers used Magic SDK for passwordless authentication providing secure login. Any existing news-sharing mobile apps usually face the problem of poor user experience. Our app developers eliminated that with the help of a Matic network to deliver an exceptional user experience.

From requirement gathering to deployment, the V***N**** app development journey was full of challenges. However, our dedication and teamwork led us to deliver the solution successfully, as well as within the prescribed timeline & budget. After the development phase, our QA team tested the mobile application before finally delivering it to the client.

Challenges

1. Payment Verification

As this app allows users to purchase reel coins, our app developers had to integrate various payment methods. Along with that, they had to verify the success or failure of the payment message.

2. Video Upload Quality

As the video reels are the core functionalities of the mobile application. our developers found it challenging to upload the videos in high quality. But our team of developers made it possible to upload the video and maintain the quality of the thumbnail at the same time.

3. Reel Video Playing Quality

The newsreels play continuously one by one we had to make sure to maintain the video quality without taking much buffering time. Our app developers improved the user experience by first starting the pre-buffer 1 video while the current one runs.

Technology Stacks

We have used the latest technologies that can justify client requirements at the best to deliver bug-free solutions.
