FITNESS APP

iOS & Android

www.mobiversal.com
OVERVIEW
We welcome the opportunity to build 2 mobile apps (iOS and Android) c ontaining
several fitness exercises. For each exercise the users will be able to watch a video
that explains them how to make the exercise. The apps will be free and will have
few fitness exercises included. Additionally they will have an option to let users
pay a fee and receive the premium upgrade, where all the content will be
available to download.

OUR PROCESS

Discovery
We work with clients to understand their business and we merge
their initial concept with everything the Mobiversal team knows
about mobile. We’ll assess the possible challenges and identify the
ways to overcome them.

Features & Architecture


We establish what features go into the product and how they will
work together. Here, we’re drafting a skeletal framework for the
app in the form of wireframes.

Design
When it comes to first impressions, it’s all about design. We’ll put
our passion for good design to work and based on approved
wireframes we’ll design all screens.

Development
The development process is broken down into sprints based on
feature sets. Our agile-based development process will allow you
to regularly review and assess what we’re building.

Quality Assurance
Our Quality Assurance team will test the app after each
development sprint and once all major functionality is
implemented, we’ll prepare a Beta Build.

Launch
After passing the Beta Build through a final round of QA and
refinements, we’ll have in our hands a Release Candidate Build.
We can either submit the app to the App Stores or provide you
with everything you need to do it yourself.

Maintenance
We provide our clients with a 3 months bug fixing period, free of
charge, and maintenance packages that cover everything from
small updates all the way to whole new versions.

APPROACH TO MEET
REQUIREMENTS

The mobile apps will be installed for free and will contain 2-3 free fitness
techniques. In order to have all fitness techniques, the app will let the user make
In App Purchases for unlocking the entire functionality. After a successful
payment, the user will have access to download all the files of the app.

In order to make the app we will have the following components:


• mobile apps
• admin area
• backend (server)

The backend will need to have information about all successful payments,
because it will allow access only to those who paid to download the files. In order
to achieve this, the backend will have a mechanism for adding new valid
payments ( the backend will validate the payment with Apple and Google) and a
mechanism for downloading content with valid payment tokens.

The admin area will let you see a list with all the payments that have been done
with the app. This list will be protected with a login screen.

The mobile apps will be in English and will have the following screens:
1. About app. This description will be received from client.
2. List of fitness techniques. This list can contain only the free techniques or
all of them in case the premium upgrade was done. In case the user didn’t pay
for all the techniques, he/she will be able to see that from this screen and
opt to buy the rest of the techniques.
3. Fitness technique details screen will have the name and description text for the
fitness technique and the possibility to play a video.
4. Download files. The app will be small in file size and only if the user pays for the
full functionality, it will download the rest of the files.
5. Payment. The payment will be done using In App Payments features from
Apple and Google.
6. Remembering a payment. In case the user already purchased the full feature
app, and buys a new phone, he should be able to download the content for free,
if he paid once.

TECHNICAL SOLUTION
We are using RUP (Rational Unified Process), so the development of parts from
the components can be done in parallel. The diagram from the costs and timeline
will explain how the components are done in parallel.

Technologies proposed for the development:

1. Backend and Database

We have selected a Javascript-based stack to implement the backend, based on


NodeJS, ExpressJS and SailsJS. As opposed to more traditional technologies,
Javascript is a newer one but growing quickly on the server-side, and we selected
it because of its stellar performance and better scalability.

2. Admin Area and Website (web client)

The admin area will have a simpler UI and functionality and will be implemented
using a template based on Bootstrap 3.0.

Both the website and the admin area will run on all major current browsers:
Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer.

3. Mobile app

The Android mobile client application will run on all phones with Android 4.0 or
newer that include Google services. The iOS mobile client application will run on
all devices with iOS 8.0 or newer.

It will be developed using the native development tools provided by Apple and
Google. The app will run in portrait mode and will have a common layout and
look-and-feel across all form factors (phones and tablets).

During the development phase we propose at least the followings:


• Each week we are delivering demo files (images, web-pages or mobile demo
builds)
• Each week we must have a general sync meeting to discuss:
• last week's progress based on the demo provided
• next week plans
• other items regarding that period

Tools used by Mobiversal:
• JIRA for ticketing and project management
• Worklog Assistant for detailed time tracking
• Email and Google drive for sharing document, specifications and content
• Crashlytics Fabric for crash reports on mobile
• Crashlytics Beta for beta testing environment
• Own GIT version control server

TIMELINE AND COSTS


Before starting the actual designing and coding, we will need to build a full
functional specifications documents. This document will contain everything the
system will be able to do with higher level of details, because it will be the way to
check and compare everything needed to be done. The designer, software
architect, software developer, QA team, product owner, and project manager will
know exactly what to build and what to expect from the system. After this scoping
week, the designer and the software architect can start working. After having the
architecture, the developers will also be able to start developing.

During the development we will have two important milestones: alpha milestone
and beta milestone. For the alpha milestone, around 40-60% of the features
should be working and for the beta milestone 100% of the features should be
working, but with chances of bugs.

After the beta milestone, the apps will be sent for QA testing and fixing found
bugs. After fixing this bugs, the apps will be ready for your user acceptance
testing. After the user acceptance testing is ready (which means you’ve tested and
found that everything is ok), it starts a warranty period of 3 months. The total
estimated time of development is between 4 and 5 weeks. Below you can find a
timeline chart for the whole project, with each major component apart.
