Objective

The client approached us with a concept of a fun and entertaining mobile app that enables users to play contests for free. Here the objective was to make an engaging gaming app that has a list of contests for the end users that they can play within a specific time and get rewards on winning. An InApp Achievement feature displays the contest summaries of the users.

BRDG has also a web application for the users and a web-based panel designed for the admin. Admin can control and create contests and banners along with managing the summary section.

The client also wanted to create a dedicated website for the company BRDG as a part of this project.

The Challenges

The app required 1 million user support while playing the contest. As per the business logic, the server was not able to handle the load. Therefore, we move the contest logic to the app side instead of the backend.
The app should have the million user support feature, and this feature should be tested properly
PubNub & PayPal integration and management
Social media integration of Facebook, Google, Sign with Apple
Firebase Crashlytics integration for app crash

Our Solution

As the server was unable to handle the load as per the business logic, our team moved the logic to the app side instead of the backend. Our expert app developers have also created a customized script capable of handling one million data entries at once to test the app’s million users support feature. We also integrated social media-based registration successfully along with email-based registration and PayPal and PubNub integration.
