Client quote
“RUBICON is flexible and exhibits a passion for technology. They successfully delivered a viable application that received positive feedback from its early users. They leverage a well-rounded project management approach and have committed staff to ensure expectations are met. Tremendous value is offered for the price point.”
“Everything was quite streamlined. They presented us with a detailed project plan and expectations for each sprint. We held weekly sprint meetings and then a demo at the end of every week. They graciously accommodated our requested changes and they made good use of their project management tools. RUBICON was much better than other companies I’ve worked with in terms of quality and speed.”
CEO, LetGOH
Overview
GOH Group approached RUBICON to develop an innovative, functional, and secure mobile application called LetGOH-Addiction Recovery that would better the lives of individuals suffering from addiction and help them eliminate their addictive habits. The client is a mental health and addiction startup with “a mission to reduce the devastating global burden of substance use disorders affecting individuals, families, communities and societies.”
Challenges
During the development process, RUBICON’s software development team encountered a number of challenges before releasing the ideal app:
Pairing up sponsors and sponsees - implement an efficient method for pairing sponsors with their sponsees by defining a unique ID code for users to send to other users in order to become a sponsor/sponsee. Once connected, sponsors can track and motivate their sponsees helping them overcome their addiction
Privacy protection - ensure privacy, the ability to add a 4- 4-digit pin code to access the mobile app. In addition, provide database rules to protect all of the information within the app
In-App purchases - allow in app-purchases both on the iTunes store for iOS and Google Play for Android so all users can enjoy the premium features the app has to offer
Solutions
RUBICON created a LetGOH - Addiction Recovery mobile application that assists and supports users in helping them overcome their addictions. Any type of addiction can be monitored on the app such as alcohol, narcotics, gambling, and more. The focus of the app is for users to track their monthly recovery journey using a 12-step recovery process.
The main features of the mobile app are:
Sponsorship between individuals - Users are able to add a sponsor that will help motivate them while tracking their activity.
Inventory Tools - Users are able to manage a spot check, nightly inventory, daily journal, and a well-being index.
Meditations
Prayers and affirmations
A 4-Digit Pin - Users are able to set up a 4-digit pin that will be used to access the information on the app and keep their personal information private.
Push notifications
The development process for LetGOH began when GOH Group approached RUBICON with their idea and a blueprint containing specific features for the mobile app. RUBICON translated the requirements into a wireframe design, a user-friendly UX design, and a prototype of the app before moving on to the development process. The hybrid mobile application was developed using the cross-platform React Native framework. Agile practices were integrated over the six-month development process, specifically following the Scrum method.
The app is free to download but purchasing a premium package will allow users to enjoy additional benefits. It is available for download on both iOS and Android in multiple languages.
