With sharing percentage being high on mobiles Thinking About mobile app builds dynamic geo-location grids to track followers within their self-defined locations.

Business Challenge

Connect people with Geo-Location

  • Client required a social app to share thoughts among the people. Need to find like-minded people geographically. Moving geospatial circle formed dynamically from a user location, whereas other geo social apps will provide a static grid.

How Avasoft helped?

Social Mobile Application

  • Geo-hash to form the dynamic geospatial circle. To represent the like-minded people AVASOFT suggested Google Map mobile SDK
  • User can find the positive, negative, undecided groups in map to find the nature of “Thoughts” by searching the hash tags.
  • AVASOFT suggested Xamarin APIs, language and data structures to share an average of 75% of app code across all mobile development platforms.
  • Built robust code by following Xamarin Coding Standards. Thinking About app is built with standard, native user interface controls.
