Our team was required to provide the technical solution by building a constellation of apps for multiple platforms that would rely on interconnectivity for a seamless experience for the users.

A custom wearable device was produced by an OEM and was preinstalled with the fitness app and our custom wearable software. Close collaboration with the fitness app developer and Web Factory opened certain APIs that allowed for tight integration utilizing their years of experience in fitness metrics.
Connectivity
The wearable sports watch had the ability to connect via Bluetooth to both iOS and Android devices expanding the potential audience. This connection extends to the uniquely developed Bluetooth headphones that offer easily accessible crucial controls to the athlete.
Custom device
For greater flexibility, the watch could work offline, and store all the data for later processing for those moments that connectivity is weak or unattainable. A custom device opened the opportunity for fine tuning the wearable to strike a balance between battery consumption and device responsiveness to minimize the time required for the display to ‘light up’ while still preserving long battery life.
Phone App
On the phone side, the app offered connectivity and control of the wearable device, including data synchronization and look and feel customization of the smartwatch. Furthermore, a loyalty store is available in the app offering the branded goods of the client for purchase, combining functionality and convenience. The Loyalty Program offered points that were acquired through purchases, and could later be used for discounts on purchased goods.

The app has been a major success right from the start! With over 150,000 active downloads and an average rating of 4.0 on Android & iOS, we’ve built a sophisticated solution that exceeds user expectations and keeps them actively engaged in the brand’s ecosystem (app-device-store). The mobile app has become the central mechanism for the clients digital strategy.
Well-known magazines have named the watch as one of the top 10 wearable devices at the Global Stage for Innovation.
We had amazing collaboration between the teams that were working on this solution. Drawing from the experiences of the partners and their expertise in their respective fields, with Web Factory in the middle of it, made all this possible.
Two custom watch faces were built, personalized for the sports brand. Custom, low level drawing of the watchfaces was needed to achieve precision design for the natural circular shape of the screen. The watchfaces come preloaded with the device and are usable out of the box.
