GOBIKE
About client
GoBike is one of the first bicycle rental applications in Almetyevsk. The customer signs in via Twillio phone verification and pays the deposit. The mobile app gives you fast access to the bicycle by scanning QR-code. GoBike uses a "Smart Bike" lock which can be locked and re-opened in any place using iOS and Android Apps.
Challenges
During the development we faced several difficulties with setting things up being in different places since the team working on the application was partially in China. The client was in Almetyevsk, the development team in Kazan, and the locks tech support in China.
The key stages of development consisted of
- Controlling the electronic locks of the bicycles through the application
- Calculating the distance traveled and adjusting the price according to it
- Implementing the ability to find an available bike nearby
- Unlock the bike using the app
- Payment integration after completing the ride

Results
- Using flexible Agile SCRUM methodologies, we managed to achieve the most efficient and transparent communication with the client and build the application that meets all the requirements. During the work, we tested the riding mechanism ourselves to have a clear understanding of the user's side of the app. Our team provides technical app support for several years already to make sure everything works correctly so the users can enjoy the great service.
- Apps are available in the App Store and Google Play.
- Have a nice ride!
