Solution

To address the challenges and achieve Altamira HRM’s objectives, Wishtree Technologies developed a comprehensive mobile application solution. We focused on scalability, user experience, and seamless integration.

What we did:

  • Cross-platform development with Flutter Utilized Flutter to build a single codebase, ensuring consistent performance and UI/UX across both iOS and Android platforms, reducing development time and costs.
  • Optimized API structure Adapted and optimized existing web APIs to align with mobile functionality, ensuring efficient data transfer and real-time synchronization.
  • Incremental feature rollout Implemented an agile development approach with iterative sprints, prioritizing core functionalities and gradually adding features based on user feedback.
  • User-centric UI/UX design Designed an intuitive and responsive user interface using Figma, focusing on ease of navigation and a positive user experience.
  • Real-time data synchronization Implemented robust data synchronization mechanisms to ensure seamless data consistency between the web and mobile platforms.
  • Robust access control Developed a complex system of access control, to enable admins, managers, and normal employees to use the application, each with their own set of permissions.
  • Geofencing and offline capabilities Implemented Geofencing for location aware attendance, and offline clock-in capabilities, to increase the robustness of the application.
  • Phased deployment and user testing Conducted thorough user testing during each development phase, incorporating feedback to refine the application and ensure smooth adoption.
