FENCITY
It is the first true App in Milan where you find the best that the city offers you: restaurants, shops, bars, nightlife, wellness, art and design.
Project Type
WEB APP, ANDROID & IOS APPIt is designed for the Milanese and to allow them to make the perfect guides with those who are in town recently or stop short and do not want to miss a single minute but want to live the most dynamic city of Italy at the top! Each place has been carefully selected after careful evaluation by our staff of experts and the guide is constantly updated based on the suggestions and you judge who uses it. It's the first guide to Milan about this kind of geolocated, tells you what's great to do or visit around you wherever you are.
Key Challenges
- The Client was Italian so, communication problem was there. But we handled him in a really good way.
- The most complex issue is to synchronize the geolocation functionality of the application.
- The public bus timetable and itinerary data is stored at the customer’s server. When this data loads to the user’s mobile device, it must give a clear impression about the bus traffic about the city with the location list of all stops.
Proposition & Solution
- We developed an application which describes a particular place. It’s got different photos of the place switching periodically. The key element is the list of check-ins where you can see a list of contacts: names and ages of those checked-in users.
- The map displays places around you taking this information from Google Places API. The map is interactive, it automatically updates places around the user. There’s a few different modes, smooth animations, functional search (reverse geocoding and Google Places Search).
- Full screen mode includes a preview of the closest place. If you swipe you’ll get redirected to that closest place on the map, where a pulsating point is gonna appear.
