snowbuddy

During our second alpine company meeting, we were looking for ski apps to use on the mountain. After downloading and testing a few of the ‘top apps’, we discovered some major flaws and omissions. These apps only really tracked speed, distance and calories and although some apps give you other useful data such as resort information and weather there was a serious lack of design and fun. Constantly competing to beat yours and your friends’ top speeds is not only challenging (most people can only hit a certain top speed and can rarely exceed it, particularly on a weeks’ ski trip) but it is also dangerous. It’s not about pushing yourself to the point of losing control, it’s about riding the mountain in perfect control, and having fun while doing it. For us, being on the mountain with your mates was more about having fun. So that’s what we made snowbuddy all about.

We used PhoneGap for snowbuddy as we wanted to develop the application quickly and have it on both Android & iOS. As it was originally for internal use, speed of development was crucial to us as well as cross platform support. For this, we believe PhoneGap was the best solution for us to use. We are really happy with how the app has turned out, and especially how well it performs on iOS. We’ve even had some developers question whether we were using Swift or Objective-C for it… Well no, we are using PhoneGap, but we do have some custom native plugins that we’ve used, both open source and ones we have made ourselves. We decided that other people might also enjoy using snowbuddy, so we released it to the public.

Sworkit

Sworkit is a workout app that provides guided, video-based workouts that you can do anywhere and anytime. Sworkit dynamically assembles exercise routines that can fit any time constraint from as little as 5 minutes to over 60 minutes, by merging high quality video content with audio guidance recorded in 13 different languages. Without needing to think heavily, users can easily follow along to the professional video and audio, and even skip an exercise they find challenging while still maintaining the length of their workout.

At Sworkit, PhoneGap and hybrid development is overwhelming regarded as a competitive advantage. Originally created by just a single developer, Sworkit has been downloaded over 4 million times with users completing over of 7 million minutes of exercise each month. This exceptional growth is credited to the rapid development, testing and distribution that hybrid development provides this very small team compared to its competitors.

Sworkit has been featured by the Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Appstore, Samsung Apps and Xiaomi Market.
