Challenge

The client requested us to develop an application that would allow its customers to manage their home devices from a smartphone. The company had been developing the product in-house for a year and a half when it realized it lacked the expertise to finish the job. With the code that its three developers wrote, users couldn’t add new home devices to their accounts or do other things that the client wanted with the app.

Solution

Elinext assigned nine professionals to the job, working as three sub-teams. Each sub-team focused on enabling a particular type of device in the app, but we also had some developers tackle the app’s overall architecture. As we used the scrum model from the get-go, the client coupled each team with their scrum master and assigned their product owner. The app needed to be light and fast. At the same time, it needed to not exhaust a wireless device’s energy while serving live video from multiple devices on one screen. We could only strike the right balance by completely redesigning the app’s architecture and rewriting its code.

Results

We have built the app on time and budget. As of this writing, about 7 million people around the world have downloaded it, and 1.4 million of them have become daily active users (DAU). And they like the app. More than 130,000 reviews and 4.5 stars out of 5 on the App Store speak for themselves. We continue to support and improve the product. As video is becoming an increasingly popular medium, we are facing a lot of work ahead.
