Transforming the Education Landscape for Low-Income Groups with a User-Friendly and Feature-Rich App

Established as a way of giving back to the society nearly three decades ago, Dr Reddy’s Foundation supports several causes, including providing accessible quality education to children from economically backward households. While the foundation has taken several initiatives over the years to support its cause for education, it continued scaling up until the COVID-19 pandemic hit and the foundation felt the vitality to introduce a tech-enabled platform.

That’s when Appinventiv was brought into the picture to build an innovative eLearning platform that could help the students located in different centers of the foundation to study online together without any barriers. Through the platform, the client also wanted to support its cause for PwD, and thus wanted the app to be suitable for visually impaired and people with hearing impairments.

Our Collaboration with Dr. Reddy’s Foundation Resulted in the Successful Creation of:

  • An eLearning web and mobile app with innovative features such as impairment modes, dynamic theme colors, and sign language
  • An unconventional course creation functionality within the app with video recording and editing features
  • A robust admin panel
Driven by innovation, we created a platform that achieved 5K+ downloads within the first two months

Project Challenges

img

Lack of Resources

During the outset, there were inadequate resources as per the scope of the project. The issue was resolved immediately by hiring the right team of developers, designers, and testers that worked diligently towards transforming the client’s idea into a real success

Compatibility with Lower Android Versions

The client wanted the app to be compatible with Android 6 and 7, which posed challenges due to performance optimization issues, security vulnerabilities, and API depreciation. Our team overcame all challenges efficiently with strategies such as code modularization, compatibility libraries, and effective algorithm implementation.

Changing Requirements

Initially, the client wanted us to use a paid video editing tool for the app, however, due to budget constraints, the requirement was later changed to building a custom video editing tool. Our team met with the client's requirements with due diligence while adhering to all deadlines proactively.

Implementation

The PoCs that were developed during the initial stages of the project posed significant implementation challenges as they did not turn out to fulfill all client requirements. Our team, thus, proactively and efficiently conducted the R&D again and ultimately launched a product that exceeded the client’s expectations.

How Our Agile Development Process Led to Building an Exceptional eLearning App

Our team kickstarted the eLearning app development project with the discovery stage, in which they collaborated with the client to understand the project’s scope, goals, and requirements in detail. After gaining the complete understanding, our team mapped out a detailed project plan with comprehensive tasks, timelines, and resources required to fulfill the laid down objectives.

Our team then started building the wireframes and UI/UX for both the web and mobile applications while incorporating key features such as:

  • Visual impairment mode
  • Dynamic theme colors
  • Talk-back and sign language features
  • Accent practice

Along with working on the frontend, our team also built a robust admin panel for the application. To make it more beneficial for users, we provided the course creation functionality with a feature for students to record video lessons with Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode in the mobile app itself. We also built a custom video editing tool for the client.

The whole development process was carried out on the cloud using Microsoft Azure services. Also, the complete app was built in phases while continually testing it for functionality, performance, security, and user-friendliness.

The Results - Scaling Beyond Boundaries

Our team’s consistent efforts led to the creation of an innovative and user-friendly app that makes education easy for people with disabilities and students belonging to low income groups. Our relentless pursuit also led to the client scaling its operations immensely where they can now make education accessible to a wider user base across the country.
