Wobie
A mobile app that connects to the Wobie speaker, giving access to your selection of music, audiobooks and podcasts.
App description
The Wobie speaker is the music box for children who want to listen to and discover music independently and for parents who find the variety of Spotify just right for this. The Wobie mobile app connected to the speaker gives users the possibility to configure the features of the Wobie speaker.
Connecting multiple speakers is something users enjoy.
Challenge
The biggest challenge for the Wobie app was integrating and facilitating the various aspects of software, hardware and firmware that go into creating a seamless connection between a mobile app and a speaker.
Solution
The client had a well-prepared strategy and design before arriving to us and was looking for a mobile app development company that can build iOS and Android apps using native development tools, and also a desktop app from where to control the content from SD cards that can be connected to the Wobie speaker.
For this project we were involved in Product Development and in
Product Launch & Scaling.
Key features
Connect to and control the speaker
Beside the capability to connect via Bluetooth (without the Wobie app), users have the ability to connect to the speaker via the Wobie app. This will give them additional information about the speaker that are only here available.
