    Having previously collaborated with Apptension with successful outcomes, a management consulting company decided to entrust its new project to the agency. The task involved developing an Android application comprising three primary submodules alongside an online marketplace for purchasing and managing home security, electricity, and household services. The home services module was particularly designed to streamline coordination with local service providers. (Verified via email)

    Project Type: App Development
    Review Date: 27 September, 2022
    Apptension developed a mobile app that will provide a solution for regular consumers. It comes under the scope of a fast-moving consumer good (FMCG). So far, we’ve done the discovery phase. The team varied depending on the phase of the project. We were working with 3–4 people in the beginning, and there were 10 people involved in the workshop. I’ve worked with 10–15 people from Apptension at our peak, but the range was 3–10, depending on the phase of the project.

    Digital Project Manager at Unit9

    Development Services for Global Production Company
    Project Type: App Development
    Review Date: 19 September, 2022
    Apptension initially helped us with a VR project for HyperCRC. Now, they’re developing an app with a 3D program for use in the construction industry. They’re using Unity for programming, Firebase, and cloud servers. The app pulls data from the server, and then we showcase the data in 3D and make sure the data is parsing back to the server correctly.I started at Unit9 a year ago, but the relationship between Unit9 and Apptension began about four years ago.

    One of our top clients asked us to design and deliver a large interactive exhibit that would showcase two of their brands at an international technology conference. The display was to convey the public vision of the brands and illustrate how a futuristic kitchen might operate. Our primary challenge was to provide a gamified experience through VR technology that would lean on facial and emotional recognition.
