Never for a second did I have any doubt about the success of my project. I found their development team very competent and exceedingly motivated in the first place. In the end, everything was fulfilled according to my requirements, and I could proudly present the apps to my clients. I can truly recommend collaboration with MobiDev to anyone who needs a competent and responsive partner in app development. We have three more apps on the list, and we will certainly entrust MobiDev with them.
Founded in 2012, a Germany-based vehicle electronics manufacturing company, Cete Automotive GmbH, specializes in IoT solutions for customizing car settings using custom hardware. In 2017, the company engaged MobiDev in improving and then expanding its software product line which in particular includes:
1. Active Sound Gateway (ASG)
2. Active Suspension Control (ASC)
3. Active Valve Control (AVC)
The Active Sound Gateway allows users to control and personalize the synthetic engine sounds in their vehicle, providing an improved auditory experience that can be tailored to individual preferences through an app.
Tasked with improving user experience and increasing transparency, MobiDev's design experts completed a thorough audit of the ASG application's existing design. Using the insights from this audit, we proceeded to fully redesign the UX/UI, ensuring a clearer and more user-friendly interface.
Due to existing product constraints, we developed a comprehensive tech strategy to rebuild the application from the ground up. This included selecting the optimal technology stack and ensuring improved performance, scalability, and adaptability. We also added new features and enhancements to bring the application in line with modern industry standards.
We completely rebuilt two native mobile applications using the design assets from our initial collaboration. We chose Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android to achieve optimal performance, especially for firmware-related features. Key enhancements include settings for additional speakers, over-the-air firmware updates, and the ability to download new car sounds.
After launching the updated ASG application for iOS and Android, it got over 50,000 downloads on Google Play, serving owners of premium cars, including Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Range Rover, Volkswagen, and Tesla. Our collaboration with Cete Automotive GmbH expanded to include upgrading the Active Suspension Control (ASC) application and developing the Active Valve Control (AVC) app from scratch.
