Scout it Mobile Application

Description
The Scout It mobile application concept was created by one of the photography world’s young and extremely talented photographers Karlie Colleen Lestina. Karlie came to us looking for a trusted iPhone application developer that could bring her concept alive. Scout It is the only social based photography mobile application where users can scout their favorite locations, organize them, post them and even book venues for those looking for a great place for their next shoot.
Challenge
The primary challenge for developing this mobile application was converting the stakeholder’s high level (yet complex) concept and vision into an amazing user experience with optimal user flows. Because the application would be monetized, we had to create a business model around the mobile application that would support not only the stakeholders studio, but other user studios who wished to create bookings through the application as well.
We took a full cycle development agile and iterative approach and engaged in the following activities:
Comprehensive business and competitive analysis
Functional and technical analysis of other mobile applications process’s with working models of various feature sets.
Collaborative specification and requirement authoring
Story boarding, screen wire framing and prototyping
Native development with 3rd party monetization integrations
Beta testing with beta test groups
Deployment and Publishing to the iOS and Android marketplaces
Solutions
Within the Scout It app you can scout new locations provided by other users and save locations privately that you have scouted on your own. All locations are neatly organized under country, state, city, and then by more detailed words of your choosing. Also within the app you are able to host venues or studios you own for hourly or daily rentals to other creatives. Creatives likewise can book venues or studios within the app to have their next photo shoot at. Hunt is a feature where user can post a query and the other users can comment on it.
