Three Months to Release the First Version
- Well-established communication with team members and timely comprehensive reports allowed to adapt the project to numerous changes, and it took 3 months to release the first version, with further frequent updates coming out once a month.
iOS and Android Versions Developed
- The Client’s back end was tied to our iOS and Android apps. The iOS version had no technical difficulties as such and was released first. The Android version had a worthy challenge with the offline mode. We had to set up a caching queue with reordering to collect photos and upload them to the server, once the connection was restored.
- There was a predictable issue with Android that lies in very high demands towards the responsiveness of gestures. We made it easy for the system to faultlessly react to horizontal and vertical scrolling, and differentiate it, thus making the experience smooth to the end-user.
MVP Appeared on the Market
- Over time we added support for Apple Watch. The MVP appeared on the market in quite a short time. As a result, meWrap became an interesting alternative to the existing photo-sharing social networks – beautifully designed and responsive in use.
