About
The Project
We collaborated with the client to develop a feature-rich health fitness app leveraging IoT capabilities for users in the USA. The app tracks physical activity, calories, sleep, and personalized workout routines while integrating seamlessly with multiple wearable devices. From our perspective, the focus was on building a secure, responsive, and user-friendly solution with rich UI/UX, push notifications, and one-tap tracking. From the client’s perspective, the app empowers users to monitor wellness daily, achieve personal fitness goals, and stay motivated through data-driven insights and social sharing of achievements.
Process We Followed
After lining up salient details related to the project, our team outlined a course of action that would be followed to develop a comprehensive solution. The process comprised of identification of problems, considering the relevant factors of the solution, taking note of common challenges faced, technology stack to be used and coming up with the outcome in the end.
1. Problem Identification
We aimed to simplify health tracking by developing a hybrid fitness app that monitors physical activity, calories, exercise duration, and personal goals, enabling users to stay fit, track progress, and maintain wellness effortlessly.
3. Solution Implementation
We conducted user research, a product discovery workshop, and competitor analysis to align the health fitness app with user needs and client goals, define core features, and ensure a competitive, user-oriented, and market-ready solution.
2. Feasibility Study
We planned a feature-rich fitness app to track workouts, nutrition, and daily activities. The app displays data on mobile and web, syncs with wearables, supports social sharing, and offers workout videos and preset exercise routines for users.
4. Challenges Faced by QSS
While developing the health fitness app, we tackled challenges like creating rich UI/UX in React Native, implementing GPS, ensuring wearable compatibility, securing user data, enabling comprehensive tracking, and building convenient fitness functionalities.
5. Final Outcome Achieved
We delivered a web-responsive, mobile-based fitness app integrating backend APIs, push notifications, device synchronization, sleep and activity trackers, altimeter, and customizable workout routines, enabling seamless monitoring of users’ physical activities.
Problem Identification
In this fast-paced world, keeping an eye on health-related vitals on daily routine can sometimes be difficult to manage, mainly for patients. Hence, nothing could be better than fitness wearables that keeps track of physical activity and sends reminders of wellness. Keeping this in mind, we aim at developing a native hybrid web responsive application.
- Help patients to fetch and track their activities
- Allows tracking the physical activity of an individual
- Monitor calories intake/burned and exercise duration
- Allow users setting personal goals as per body requirement
Feasibility Study
After considering problems, a feature-rich health application, that tracks users/ patients’ workout and nutrition plans, was needed to put into action. We intended to develop a fitness monitoring solution that works wonders for patients by notifying them about the medicine and water intake, tracking nutrition habits and other daily activities.
- Display data for patients on mobile and web app
- Allows linking or delinking the app with one or all wearable devices
- Allows social sharing of achievements
- Provided users with workout and yoga videos to stay fit and healthy
- Added features like pre-set exercise routines
Solution Implementation
We started by defining a clear roadmap for the health fitness app, aligning client goals with market opportunities. This phase focused on designing core features, anticipating challenges, and ensuring the app would be user-centric and competitive in the market.
User research
The success of every app depends on by perceiving if it is actually targeting the users it was mainly built for; which can only be known by conversing with real-world users. Therefore, to gather user’s insight, we carried out user research among a group of people to understand the potential of the application and how we can keep it user-oriented.
Product discovery workshop
Product discovery workshopWe kicked off the project with a Product Discovery Workshop. Discovery Workshop is our trusted format for problem-solving. Our cross-functional team spent the first day understanding the client’s vision of the product and the intent behind the application. We established the core values of the product and created User Personas.
Competitor Analysis
The market is highly competitive and this is why analyzing the competitors of a similar solution will help us in dominating our rivals and developing the best application in the market.
The Challenges
Even after a lot of research and consideration, there were few complications encountered by the team while developing the health solution. Challenges faced while crafting the health fitness application are
- Developing rich UI/UX charts in React native app
- Implementing GPS technology
- Making app compatible with different fitness wearables
- Secure transactions of data to maintain patient’s data privacy
- Providing keys and convenient functionalities for a fitness app
- Enabling comprehensive tracker
Final Outcome
After understanding the customer's vision, our team of designers and the engineer put forth the meticulous process to formulate a web responsive mobile-based application that tracks the physical activity of users at best.
- Integrated the UI components with backend APIs
- Push notification system and reminders
- Allow synchronization with different devices
- Added features like sleep tracker, Altimeter
- Routines customization for specific workouts
- Monitoring physical activities with one tap tracker button
With QSS, the fitness app boosted user engagement by 55% and improved activity tracking accuracy by 48%, proving QSS delivers measurable results and unmatched performance.
Sample Interview Questions
Yes, we are looking to integrate facebook integration and push notification API integration in the app.
For an effective communication, we added functionalities like-
- Establish a back and forth communication channels
- To enhance patient's communication with medical professionals
- Concept of virtual appointments and consultations
- Complete data security of patients
- Emergency tap feature for an instant response from hospital management
- Facilitates with telemedicine service
The objectives we seek through this app are-
- Centralized database to access patient's electronic medical record
- Enable punch in and out the facility for medical staffs
- Provided with a category of seeking medical approach
- Allowing different communication capabilities
- Patients to get an option to bookmark their favorite doctors
Hospital visits are convenient and easy but can we say the same for older people as well? People with old ages are more likely to experience certain medical conditions. The idea is to develop an application that helps in carrying out treatment plans as well as providing in house medications facilities to the elderly patients.
The app is equipped with modules like chat, group chat, alerts, user status, push notification, etc. and facilitates 24X7 special care to older people.
We have used cross-platform technologies for developing the app.
The app supports English language.
