Client Overview

Our client owns a learning app that provides training support to teachers with strategies that they can utilize to help children who have additional learning needs. The app features a diverse range of plans for different disabilities and can be used by any school or teacher.

The motive of the app is to cater to children with special needs and provide them additional learning, empowering them by making knowledge more accessible for them. Individual teachers or schools can download and use the app by taking up a subscription plan.

They reached out to our experts at Saffron Tech to develop a responsive and intuitive app. In addition, they wanted to build their app on a reliable platform to offer a robust user experience. We collaborated with them and understood their vision and intent behind developing their app.

Based on our discussion, we mutually decided to go with a Native App Development approach. The project demands efficient coding and other native device functionalities to enrich the user experience. Furthermore, the app offers a paid membership, we had to develop an effective payment gateway.

Challenges/Aim
