Challenges of Maintaining Multiple Mobile Apps for Device Control

The client faces significant management overhead and increased development costs due to maintaining and updating two separate native mobile applications for different platforms. This fragmentation hampers user experience and complicates device pairing operations, leading to inefficiencies in device management and customer satisfaction.

About the Client

A mid-sized manufacturing company specializing in the production of water management systems, seeking to enhance device control and testing capabilities through a streamlined mobile application.

Goals for Developing a Unified Mobile Application to Improve Efficiency and User Experience

  • Consolidate existing platform-specific apps into a single, maintainable cross-platform solution to reduce development and maintenance costs.
  • Enable seamless pairing of water management devices to user WiFi networks within the app.
  • Design an intuitive navigation structure to simplify user interactions with device controls.
  • Implement a modern, brand-aligned user interface for improved aesthetics and usability.
  • Achieve cost savings by eliminating the need for multiple vendor management and duplicate codebases.
  • Enhance user satisfaction, aiming for high app store ratings post-launch.

Core Functionalities and Capabilities for the Water Management Mobile App

  • Single codebase supporting both iOS and Android platforms to streamline maintenance.
  • Device pairing capability enabling users to connect devices to their WiFi networks directly within the app.
  • Modern, streamlined navigation architecture to improve user flow and reduce complexity.
  • Updated user interface design matching the company’s branding guidelines for a professional and contemporary look.
  • Device control and testing features for installation verification and operational management.

Preferred Technological Stack and Architectural Approaches

Cross-platform framework (e.g., Xamarin or equivalent) for shared codebase
C# and .NET Core for backend development
Cloud hosting on AWS for scalability and reliability
SQL Server for data management

External Systems and Device Integration Needs

  • Device pairing protocols to facilitate WiFi connection within the app
  • Backend systems for device status monitoring and control
  • User authentication and account management systems

Performance, Security, and Reliability Expectations

  • High performance with smooth app responsiveness across platforms
  • Secure device pairing and data transmission to prevent unauthorized access
  • Scalability to support an expanding user base and device fleet
  • Maintainability with a unified codebase to reduce future development effort

Anticipated Business Benefits of the Unified Mobile App Solution

The new mobile app is expected to substantially reduce operational costs by consolidating development efforts into a single platform, minimize vendor management complexity, and improve user satisfaction through enhanced usability and device pairing functionality. These improvements aim to enhance customer retention, reduce support overhead, and position the company for future scalability and feature expansion.
