Project Goals

⦾ The main objective of the project was to create a trading app that incorporated social media features for forex traders.

⦾ The client wanted the app to be user-friendly, bug-free, and able to perform at its peak capacity.

⦾ In addition, the client wanted the app to attract a large number of users within a short period of time.

Challenges

The client had a limited amount of time to launch the app and needed to hire a frontend mobile developer to assist with the project. I was brought on board to fill that role. Additionally, the client required an app that was user-friendly and bug-free, with top-notch performance.

Finally, I launched the app, conducting bug testing and performance checks.

Within the first hour of launching, over 1,000 users registered on the app. With the current marketing campaign in effect, the app is expected to attract even more users. The app performed optimally, with minimal bugs and a consistent 60fps throughout. The user interface was intuitive, providing a user-friendly experience.
