Project
Description

ShootClub is a unique mobile app for shooting enthusiasts. It combines a personal shooting training manager with analytics and statistics. Its main goal is to simplify the development of your shooting skills and track the dynamics of your achievements.

The ShootClub app contains two training sections: Dry Training and Shooting Training. It gives the user the ability to create different types of exercises, systematize them, and track performance.

The app's audience is actual gun owners, athletes, and shooters. In addition, the application provides access to live shooting contests, creates shooters' profiles, tracks their performance, and analyzes the history of competitions.

Specification

Goal:

Developers were challenged to re-create the app with an up-to-date interface and fast loading times. The users should intuitively understand how to sign up, create or track communities, and set up workouts. Basically, the app had to function as a social network but focused on a narrow area of interest.

Main flow:

We discussed the main objectives with the customer and then developed requirements for functionality, performance, and other application attributes. After that, we assembled a team of specialists who were experienced with similar applications on multiple occasions. Finally, the team began development within the agreed time frame.

Our main task was to create a user-friendly application, fix all the bugs, test it and launch it.

Team

Backstage

No matter how well thought out and calculated the development process of any project, the team has to adjust to different circumstances. For this purpose, meetings and sessions are held in various formats. They address immediate and theoretical challenges and risks associated with application development and deployment.

Whiteboard Meeting

A proven tool for visualizing current issues and questions in a way that takes minimal time and allows for quick resolution through team involvement.

Brainstorming

A method used by the Computools team in several cases: planning risks and facing unexpected difficulties.

Dev Meeting

Meetings are held on an ongoing basis to keep developers engaged, track changes, and stay in touch with the customer.

Internal Communication Flow

The company's internal communication is set up perfectly and works like a clock. Our developers use such communication channels as: Slack, Trello, Jira.

Project Management Methodology

We used the Waterfall method as a management technique for this project. To progress using the Waterfall, one must have clear terms of reference and understand the steps. Thus, We agreed upon the terms of reference for the ShootClub; the team sketched the design, created the layout, wrote the code, tested the app. After the job was done, the team performed the launch.

user interface

Designing product’s interface and accomplishing final steps to move a product to the development stage.

What our
client said

“We are glad to choose this development team, as we were not happy with the previous result. This time we got an outstanding design of our application, user-friendly interface. We knew very well what our target audience wanted; the developers thoroughly listened to our wishes and suggestions, which led to a productive result. Downloads are growing; the stickiness rating is increasing.”
