About
CollectingApp is a mobile app for the grocery store system, allowing stores to improve and speed up their process of serving customers and processing orders.
Challenge
Creating a mobile product was an important part of the system development. All shop assistants must be provided with prompt access and real-time updates of order information to facilitate the order processing for the shipping department. The application was required to be quick to use and intuitive allowing employees to start using the system with no extra tuition.
Solution
We developed CollectingApp, a cross-platform mobile application running on smartphones and tablet PCs. It supplies shop assistants with access to the list of customers’ orders, organized by status and estimated arrival time.
External Devices
CollectingApp can operate with external devices, such as barcode scanner and scales, through Bluetooth connection in order to increase performance and simplify the process of entering data to the system.
