Challenge

The main challenge was introducing a lot of new features while retaining existing users. We pushed this app to the limits of hardware and the current state of Android software and implemented features that were not even considered to be possible before. ping is the first app that allows you to hear ALL your messages on the Alexa device and reply without using the screen. Many more features were carefully planned, designed, and developed.

Solution

After years of development and more than 70,000 lines of code, we refactored everything. We brought in new architecture, libraries, and patterns which allowed us to increase stability, and security and introduce new features faster and easier.

Results

This safe driving app will start automatically when you get behind the wheel using Bluetooth detection. Easily toggle between ping, your music, and navigation. Have all your messages and emails read aloud at a speed that works for you. Optional passenger mode allows you to hear who the message is from but will not automatically read it aloud.
