The Task
Sing Kinderlieder is an iOS/Android app offering an archive of children’s videos and songs.
- Integrate German and Indian software development teams from Sydney.
- Manage and synchronize the Android build from Kolkata which lagged the iOS build from Hamburg.
The Build
Native iOS and Android apps were built.
In summary:
-
- The app allowed children to view videos and listen to accompanying songs.
- The app has a parental locking system so that children can view videos and listen to songs, without disrupting the overall functionality of the parent’s mobile device.
- Teaser videos/songs (free for a limited time) are made available for creating playlists encouraging parents to subscribe to three different monthly plans.
The Results
The integration of the German and Indian teams was a success resulting in a significant cost savings due to the ‘stepped’ (lagging) software deployment timetables.
