THE SOLUTION

Ideating the concept
Before starting on the project we held multiple rounds of communication with our client to understand every fine detail and understand the essence of the product. The mind behind this app had a vision of creating a UI that appeals to different demographics, something that can be used by a grandma and a teenager. To make it appealing to a large target audience of different age groups, we spent a lot of time brainstorming and conceptualizing until we found the right fit. An agile approach helped us reduce costs and maintain transparency while delivering high-quality work.
User Experience Design and User Interface Design
After a detailed product ideation phase of the reminder app, we got down to UI/UX. We decided to turn every date into a slide that would remind the user as soon as they open the reminder app. Simplistic yet elegant and effective. We saw the smile on our client’s face and knew that we had found our design and interface.
Our Key Guidelines:
1. User-friendly navigation with fluid superfluous design.
2. A fun way of reminding the user of important dates like birthdays, and anniversaries.
3. Data security to respect your data and privacy.
4. Transform the essence of the brand image to the customer via UI.
5. Easy commands to make the app usable for every demographic.
Mobile App Development
The developmental phase started in close collaboration with our clients so that they could constantly be updated about the developments. The client was given a free hand to suggest any changes at any time so the app could be precisely developed as per the vision of the founders. In the second phase of development, our team of developers implemented building a smooth onboarding process for users. We also added the features of editing profiles, blocking users, app notifications to users (with CRON logic).
Quality Checks
Multiple quality checks were made before and after the app launch to ensure the app was delivered in practice as well as it did in theory. We maintained close contact with our clients so that the bugs could be reported and fixed at the earliest to keep the promise of quality assurance alive and kicking.

The biggest challenge was to design an app for a 26-year-old young professional and a 76-year-old grandma who has a difficult time remembering dates.

We wanted to maintain the simplicity of the app along with an easy-to-use user interface. This was a project based on sheer creativity and collaboration, dedication, and hard work.
