Healthcare & Fitness ,
Our esteemed client from Abu Dhabi wanted us to build an app for their Health & Fitness service. This service is exclusively for women. Our developers did their best to come up with a robust application that renders all our client’s requirements. The app holistically represents the Health & Fitness service. It includes all the facilities & features that would make an easy-to-access mobile app.
This app allows women to book different fitness classes straight from the app. Moreover, it allows them to join multiple classes too. The app notifies the user about the different events which are organised in the centre. The app also acts as a social platform where users can see profiles of different fitness instructors. Moreover, they can also upload pics, status, and videos on the application.
The Challenge
- There were numerous challenges that we faced while building this app. Our client strictly wanted that their app shouldn’t have any objectionable or irrelevant content that would reduce the quality of app. So, we had to come up with an idea that would block all the objectionable content. Moreover, our client wanted that their user must be able to join multiple classes on a single subscription.
- Our client wanted to provide extra plans on festivals as a bonus. And apart from that they also wanted to provide some free classes on some special occasions such as birthdays. It was quite a task to accomplish all these challenges. However, our developers came with the solutions to meet all the demands of the client.
The Solution
- We solved all the challenges one by one. Firstly, we created an algorithm which eliminated all the objectionable/irrelevant content from the app. Hence, it resulted in increasing the quality of the content in the app. We also included packages which allow the user to attend multiple classes. For example, if a user wants to do aerobics on weekends and cardio on weekdays then it would be possible for her with these packages.
- To integrate the concept of free classes we came up with reward points. In this the user can earn reward points by sharing the application with their friends & family. After they obtain a certain amount of points which they can redeem it later to get a free class. Secondly, we came up with the feature of free classes on every user’s birthday and some special events which the admin would decide.
