Reimagine What You Build.** **Your Idea, Accelerated by AI & Senior Product Teams** AI-Augmented Product & Engineering Partner \| Mobile & Web Development \| Product Discovery & Prototyping \| UI/UX Design \| QA \| AI Adoption \| Ongoing Support X2 Labs is a product and engineering partner helping companies design, build, and scale digital products faster — with AI as a core part of how we deliver. We work with mid-sized companies and well-funded startups in education, media, events, and enterprise SaaS when speed, quality, and clarity matter — and traditional delivery feels too slow or rigid. At X2 Labs, we embed AI across the full software lifecycle — from discovery and design to development, testing, and delivery — reducing waste and accelerating feedback loops. 90%+ of our code is AI-generated, then reviewed, secured, and refined by senior engineers and our internal AI infrastructure to ensure production-grade quality and maintainability. Numbers speak for themselves: **3× faster delivery:** Speed and efficiency increased up to three times in the past year. **100% success rate:** Seamless app store launches for 11+ years. **6 years:** Average client partnership length. **2M+ users:** Products used globally each month. **11+ years:** Building digital products since 2013. At X2 Labs, we don't believe AI replaces good engineers — it amplifies them. Our teams stay small, senior, and accountable, supported by AI tools we actively control and improve. We also help leading organizations adopt AI in day-to-day product and engineering workflows — focused on real delivery, not experiments. ## Company Information - Minimum project size: $75,000+ - Hourly rate: $50 - $99 - Number of employees: 10 - 49 - 3 Locations: - Cluj-Napoca, Romania (Headquarters) - Wilmington, DE - Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon, France - Founded in 2013 - 2 languages: English, Romanian - 3 timezones: Central European Time (CET), Eastern European Time (EET), Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) ## Services, Focus Areas, Industries, and Clients ### Service Lines - 35% AI Agents - 35% AI Consulting - 10% Custom Software Development - 10% Mobile App Development - 10% Product Design ### Focus Areas - Product Design Focus: - 100% Prototype Design - AI Expertise: - 60% Chatbots & Conversational AI - 25% Machine Learning - 15% Natural Language Processing - AI Consulting Focus: - 50% AI Strategy - 40% AI Deployment - 10% AI Security Management - Mobile Platforms: - 50% iPhone iOS App Development - 30% Android App Development - 20% Hybrid & cross platform apps - Mobile Focus: - 45% Learning & Education Mobile App Development - 45% Mobile Game Development - 10% Consumer Mobile App Development - Frameworks and CMS: - 25% Angular - 25% Flutter - 25% NodeJS - 25% React - Application Platforms: - 25% Other app platform - 20% Google app engine - 20% Linux server - 20% Windows server - 15% Amazon Application Development Framework - Programming & Scripting: - 17% JavaScript - 17% Objective C - 17% PHP - 17% SQL - 17% Swift - 15% Kotlin ### Industries - 10% Arts, entertainment & music - 65% Education - 10% Medical - 10% Non-profit - 5% Supply Chain, Logistics, and Transport ### Clients - 20% Small Business (<$10M) - 70% Midmarket ($10M - $1B) - 10% Enterprise (>$1B) ## Pricing Snapshot Average rating for cost based on this provider's reviews: 5.0 out of 5 **What Clients Have Said** *(This summary is based on verified Clutch reviews.)*: X2 Mobile offers competitive pricing with positive reviews highlighting good value for cost.

Please include a summary of key deliverables. Our software solution relies heavily on web real time communication for voice, SMS/MMS, WhatsApp, chat, email, and video. For this reason, we needed native mobile apps to reach local device capability for telephony to receive and make phone calls, as well as ease communication via all the other CRM contact paths. The CRM features are complex and mission critical with real-time workflow events built in, and thus notification banners were a must-have! Additionally, the activity calendars with built-in workflow automation required increased usability to encompass the complexity behind this feature.

No --- #### Mobile App Dev for Municipality **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: $10,000 to $49,999 - Project length: Sep. - Dec. 2022 **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile built a transportation app for iOS and Android for a municipality. They created features that provide real-time transportation data to the client's end users. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Chief of Citizen Information Center, Municipality of Cluj-Napoca - Industry: Government - Client size: 1,001-5,000 Employees - Review Type: Online Review - Verified **The Review** — Dec 21, 2022 **Feedback Summary**: Thanks to X2 Mobile's work, the client received positive feedback from end customers. They communicated periodically, ensuring an effective workflow. Their openness and agility were hallmarks of their work. They delivered high-quality work in a timely manner. ""We have been particularly impressed by the client-centered approach that the team members had."" **BACKGROUND** Please describe your company and your position there. Cluj-Napoca Municipality is the local authority of the second biggest city in Romania. The reviewer is the Chief Service of Citizen Information Centre of the Municipality and a part of the internal innovation team. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire X2 Mobile, and what were your goals? The city’s objective is to increase the use of the public bus system connecting such areas and the city for daily commutes. A key issue identified by the city is the lack of reliability and predictability of the current system connecting the commuting zones and city. Despite a fixed timetable, buses often have changes to their schedule due to traffic or other incidents. **SOLUTION** How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors? The technical solution takes a simple and innovative approach to offer real-time data to the Cluj Public Transport users. The bus position is accessed via an API that provides the GPS locations of the bus every five seconds. Based on the bus position the application predicts the amount of time it will require to get to the next station and shows its exact location on the map. The user has real-time information on arrival time and expected delays per station The solution provides a great user experience for both iOS and Android users via native applications. Transport Cluj is very minimalistic with the objective of being a 3sec app. The user should enter and find the information needed in less than 3 sec. Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used. The identified need for the citizens reffers to a live support application For moments of high dependency (i.e in Gherogheni you have 1 bus every hour) When the stakes are high due to delays or disruptions (i.e you a doctor appointment) When waiting for the bus that is not coming Making decisions on the go due to delays or when in a rush To plan ahead in case of any changes in the schedule Major benefits the app offers Helps when making fast decisions on the go Reduce stress and anxiety by making it easy to find information or replan the journey How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions? While a team was allocated to this project, also the leadership was availabe upon request for any type of need we had in the implementation. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables? During the 5 days demo, more than 90% of the people interviewed managed to answer all the questions from the scenarios used without getting any help. On a scale from 1-5 how difficult was it to complete the task? - 97% of the people rated it as very easy to use, and 3% rated it as easy On a scale from 1-5, what is the overall level of satisfaction? - 98% of the people rated it as 5/5, 2% rated it as 4/5 • 100% of the people interviewed stated they would use the app when published. What is the most valuable feature? More than 90% of people mentioned the real-time tracking of the bus on the route. The Metropolitan area would benefit most from the app due to the lower frequency of the buses. Losing a bus means so much more there The most common suggestion in terms of new features to add was a search functionality for the stations. The most important next step is to incorporate the entire CTP bus fleet. Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness. We had recurrent meetings and a complete periodic overview at all stages of the project What did you find most impressive or unique about this company? Their openness to trust us as partners and the agility to allocate all the resources identified as needed in the proper timing. Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently? No. We have been particularly impressed by the client-centered approach that the team members had. --- #### Mobile App Dev for Fitness Studio **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: $10,000 to $49,999 - Project length: Mar. 2018 - Jan. 2019 **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile developed a mobile app for a fitness studio.

The team kept the client updated throughout, and their in-person meetings helped deliver the project on time. Overall, the team's resilience and collaborative approach impressed the client. ""They listened to my concerns, have strong organizational skills, and we communicated a lot."" **BACKGROUND** Please describe your company and your position there. I am the Founder and CEO of The Box - Barbell Club, a gym located in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire X2 Mobile, and what were your goals? We have two locations in Cluj-Napoca, and we needed an app for our members to access our content (like workout of the day, trainer bio/info, and so on…), to book an appointment with one of our coaches, to book a class. Our goal was to have a friendly and easy-to-use platform for our community. **SOLUTION** How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors? First, I was looking for people easy to talk to. But on the other hand, I was eager to find great skills, nice previous projects and good cost estimate. Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used. We had a series of discovery meetings to discuss our goals and objectives. We provided the wireframes, they gave us feedback, and then we came up with a great design. After that, they started the development. Every two weeks we had a demo meeting. How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions? Most of the time we worked with the project manager, but every two weeks we interacted with all team members (developers, QAs, …) **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables? Our members were very happy with our app, we received only great feedback. Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness. The project manager was easy to communicate with, he provided updates regularly. Because we are based in the same city, we had lots of face-to-face meetings. Everything was delivered on time. What did you find most impressive or unique about this company? In X2Mobile team I recognised teamwork skills. They listened to my concerns, have strong organizational skills, and we communicated a lot. Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently? Nobody’s perfect, and regardless how critical we are when it comes to strengths and weaknesses, I haven’t doubted their abilities to get the job done. --- #### Health Application for Software Development Company **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: $50,000 to $199,999 - Project length: Apr. - Nov. 2020 **Project Summary**: A software development company hired X2 Mobile to help with their health application.

I am the CEO of a full-service software development company, focused on building mobile and web products. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire X2 Mobile? We requested X2 Mobile's help in augmenting one of our project teams. The project was focused on developing new features for an existing mobile application. What were your goals for this project? The main goal was the development of new features for an existing mobile application. **SOLUTION** How did you select X2 Mobile? Based on a recommendation. Describe the project in detail. The scope of the project was the development of new features for an existing android application. X2 Mobile worked closely with our internal team and created all the requirements together with the client's Product Owner. What was the team composition? From X2 Mobile there were 2 persons involved in the project, an Android Developer and a Project Manager. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success? All the proposed features were implemented and released into production successfully without major issues. How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs? The project manager that we were assigned was easy to communicate with and provided us frequent updates. And the Android Developer was very skilled and independent. We used Slack for all communication. Overall, I was impressed by their involvement and proactivity in having a successful product release. What did you find most impressive about this company? I was very pleased by the knowledge that X2 Mobile had about mobile app development, user experience and optimization.

Nothing worth mentioning. --- #### iOS & Android App Dev for Education Nonprofit **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: Confidential - Project length: Apr. 2017 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile has developed four mobile apps thus far. Two of the apps are student-facing, allowing users to access classroom materials. The other apps allow teachers to evaluate and provide feedback to students. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 4.5 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Director of Technology, Collaborative Classroom - Industry: Education - Client size: 51-200 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Dec 11, 2020 **Feedback Summary**: X2 Mobile's efforts have received positive internal feedback, specifically on the increased capabilities that the apps provide. Despite the time difference, the team is responsive and meshes well with the internal staff. Their effective development skills and attentiveness are also noteworthy. This review is an update by the client company. The original content is located below the new review. ""X2 Mobile’s technical prowess is stellar." " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. Collaborative Classroom is a nonprofit based in Alameda, California. We’re a language arts curriculum company, originally a research organization. I’m the director of technology operations. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with X2 Mobile? We’ve had a longstanding set of web tools, which we started working on in 2012 with another organization. In 2017, we started thinking about native app development, particularly on iOS. Our CTO started looking for a second development house to work with us, mainly because we were overworking the current one, and we didn’t want to lose throughput on our main web development. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? X2 Mobile has built four mobile apps that are released at this point, and there are more in the pipelines. They work with our technology department as well as with our content creators and digital publishing team. With a lot of our projects, we’ll have an existing, older web app that we want to reenvision as a mobile-first one. We won’t necessarily come up with a rigid list of requirements, but rather have an organic process, describing in lay terms what the original app was intended to do, what its workflows are, and what we like and don’t like about it. Two of our apps are student-facing, and they contain the only student-facing material we make. We didn’t want those to require logins or be coupled to the rest of our ecosystem. Those are the first two apps that X2 Mobile created for us. It was called “WordWorks!.” It’s basically part of our grade two curriculum, and it was originally envisioned as a word sorting classroom activity. Students were working on their own through web browsers, so we thought that it made sense to let them use it on mobile devices. The app was developed for iOS and Android. The second app X2 Mobile built for us is called “BookRoom!”. It’s been around for about two years. It also doesn’t require a login, and, just like with WordWorks!, using it doesn’t require being in a classroom with a teacher that has one of our products. Anyone can download these first two apps and start using them. X2 Mobile worked with us to create a simple workflow for letting teachers decide which books students could get, rather than students picking whatever books they wanted, while not making it too restrictive and difficult for a six-year-old or their parents to use. That was important from a pedagogical perspective. They also created a card deck app for two of our programs. It replaces physical card decks used in our program as a feedback mechanism with students. A teacher might have multiple card decks that are supposed to be randomized, which can become very laborious when using paper cards. Our fourth app is called “ClassView Pro” and is a mobile-optimized version of the web app by the same name, which is our assessment engine. The engine is teacher-mediated, not student-mediated.  Teachers evaluate the students’ work in collaboration with students. The teacher records how the student responds. We have other ongoing work with X2 Mobile.   What is the team composition? We’ve worked with George (Founder & CEO). What is the status of this engagement? We started working with X2 Mobile in April 2017. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? Analytics is one of the things I’ve been pushing with our organization. We track a lot of information, but we don’t analyze a lot of it. We know how many people are downloading the app, and X2 Mobile has worked with us to ensure that we’re collecting all the analytics. We haven’t done the analysis to actually see how many of those downloads led to a sale, because that’s not the reason we released those apps. They weren’t released to become a sales pipeline of any kind, but just to enhance the student experience. We do get some anecdotal responses from teachers. The apps are definitely being used, and teachers are happy with them. We had a web app in the past, which was part of older infrastructure. The reimagining of it, with a new workflow and better feature sets, has been widely praised by our users. I haven’t looked at our downloads on the App Store, and I’ve been relying on individual testimonials. The use of that app is going to skyrocket when students are back in school because it’s meant to be used in-person by groups of 3–6 students. It’s a bit harder to use in a remote learning environment. Its true impact isn’t going to be seen until the fall of 2021, but the feedback from our program development team, field staff, technology group, district leads, and teachers shows that it’s going to be widely successful. They produce great work, and they’re part of our team. How did X2 Mobile perform from a project management standpoint? We agree on a project scope, cost, and approximate delivery time for each new project, but our endeavor on that particular project doesn’t end with the final release of the app. There are always ongoing improvements.  We treat X2 Mobile as though they are part of our own team. We’re on Slack with them daily, and we get almost real-time responses despite the fact that they’re halfway around the world. They don’t respond at 2 a.m. their time, but the beginning of our day is the end of theirs and vice versa.  They have enough staff members to work in shifts. We have a high degree of synergy with them, and their communication skills are excellent, both in terms of understanding where we’re trying to go, and in bringing added value to ideas that we’re not able to communicate clearly.  A lot of other development houses would build exactly what we told them to, but that’s not the case with X2 Mobile. They use our GitHub and Jira for all our mobile projects. What did you find most impressive about them? Their willingness to integrate with our company, including people who aren’t tech-oriented, is great. Some organizations may not want that, but we did, and X2 Mobile has been great about it. They know how to build modern apps efficiently and quickly, and they do quite a bit of QA. One of the things we appreciate is that they do device compatibility validation. If they’re building an iPad app, they test every variant that exists. It’s much harder to do with Android, but they do it there as well.  They advise us on features that may restrict the kinds of devices the app can be deployed on. X2 Mobile’s technical prowess is obviously stellar, but there are a lot of great developers out there. What truly sets them apart is their communication. We’ve had George in particular directly interact with our customers. He’s been on webinars to demo our product, and he’s very good at that. We don’t send him every support ticket that we aggregate; just the ones that I feel will improve their team’s morale and the ones with constructive criticism. It’s a great partnership. He asks the right kinds of questions to really understand what’s going on. This may be a subtle distinction, but it’s an important one for us. On our end, we have multiple departments looking at a project, and they’re sometimes looking through very different lenses. He’s actually helped us communicate more clearly with each other. It’s always worrying when offshoring work to different timezones, particularly to non-English countries, but the only way we even notice that X2 Mobile isn’t in the US is that when it’s daytime here, it’s nighttime there.  There may be a slight accent or something like that, but it’s more like they’re in a neighboring state than halfway around the world. We have to worry about cost as a nonprofit, and their rates are quite affordable. **UPDATED REVIEW** This review was published on December 10, 2020.

Due to their dedicated, enthusiastic QA team, there have been far fewer bugs within the completed code. They communicated effectively and stayed organized through Jira. "“They aren’t afraid to share their ideas on how to further improve the solution.” " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. We’re web app consultants that help our clients with designing, implementing, and maintaining apps with ongoing revisions. Our company has our own developers, but we also outsource dev help for more specialized skills.  **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with X2 Mobile? We wanted someone who could dedicate a team to handle iOS development and rely on them for revisions. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? They just completed an entire rewrite of the iOS app that we’ve been maintaining for a client. To start, they helped consult on both the design layout and UI functionality during the design and planning phases. Following that, they implemented the design and release. They did the development and helped us with the testing phase. At this point, they’re making revisions and adding new features to the app. Our next step is to deploy the solution through the app store.  What is the team composition? We worked with four people: the owner, two developers, and a project manager.  How did you come to work with X2 Mobile? We found them on Upwork originally. After posting the job on our site, we invited several different dev shops to interview for the position. We chose them because of their expertise, bandwidth, and price.  How much have you invested with them? We spent between $50,000–$200,000 on their services.  What is the status of this engagement? We started working with them in February 2017, and our work with them is ongoing.  **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? We have several thousand people that use the app weekly. The rewrite included UI changes, so we put together videos to inform consumers of how things have changed.

That’s helped us move along quite easily.    Our clients are excited about the new launch and are satisfied with the functionality of the app. The new features have also been happily received by users.  How did X2 Mobile perform from a project management standpoint? We used Jira to manage the project for internal development. Because of that, we provided them with logins to all of our work. Within that project, they managed everything through our Jira platform, which was really appreciated. They created tasks, sprints, and releases. We were impressed with both project management and communication.  What did you find most impressive about them? Even while we maintaining the buggy old code base, they were responsive to fixing issues. They aren’t afraid to share their ideas on how to further improve the solution. Are there any areas they could improve? They underestimating the time that it would take to do the app, and it hurt them financially because this was a fixed-bid project. On our side, it took longer to build than expected. It was a little difficult to determine a timeline estimate. Moving forward, we’re in a better position to estimate deadlines.   Do you have any advice for potential customers? Ask them for their opinions and advice. There are features that we thought we wanted in the app, but they offered additional suggestions that made the app even better. Be open to change with them, or else you may miss out on their expertise. --- #### Mobile App Dev for Education Technology Firm **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: Confidential - Project length: Jan. 2014 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile developed a mobile application to complement an existing web application for an education technology service provider. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** CTO, ClassLink, Inc. - Industry: Education - Client size: 51-200 Employees - Review Type: Online Review - Verified **The Review** — Nov 26, 2018 **Feedback Summary**: X2 Mobile has exceeded expectations at every step of the engagement, ultimately delivering a valuable product that they continue to maintain.

I am the CTO of ClassLink, a web application that enables users to quickly sign in to multiple applications at once or access remote files on several devices. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire X2 Mobile? We relied on X2 Mobile to develop our mobile application. What were your goals for this project? Because of the prevalence of mobile devices, we decided that ClassLink needed to develop a robust mobile presence. We hoped to build a mobile application that had similar functionality to our web application. **SOLUTION** How did you select this vendor? Our team researched many different companies and asked them to develop a small prototype application. X2 Mobile exceeded our expectations with the prototype. Describe the project in detail. After we selected X2 Mobile, we had weekly meetings to coordinate the build. Once X2 Mobile understood the functional requirements and the APIs, they produced mockups and more substantial prototypes before finally executing the full build. We continue to have scheduled meetings to review our app’s functionality. What was the team composition? Initially, we worked with a project manager and a mobile developer. Our team has since grown to include the project manager, three mobile developers, and a full-time QA technician. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success? Within three months, X2 Mobile built and delivered our application. They currently maintain our application, which is used by thousands of daily users. How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs? The team communicates in English well. I’m appreciative of their willingness to continue having regular meetings with us even after the project’s completion. What did you find most impressive about this company? George (CEO, X2 Mobile) frequently communicates with our team and stays on top of the latest trends in mobile development. George has also visited our office several times in the past few years. Are there any areas for improvement? No. We are satisfied with their work, and we expect our partnership to continue for years to come. --- #### App Dev Staff Augmentation for California Tech Company **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: $50,000 to $199,999 - Project length: May 2017 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile supports iOS and Android development by providing resources as needed. They assign developers to augment an existing team and deliver complete mobile apps. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Partner, California Tech Company - Industry: Other industries - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — May 18, 2018 **Feedback Summary**: Demonstrating unparalleled flexibility, they’re capable of joining a project mid-development and quickly performing the tasks required. They often work late to accommodate a time zone difference. X2 Mobile are app development specialists and that’s evident in the quality of their deliverables. "“They’ve helped increase our productivity and overall work capacity.” " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I’m a partner in a software development company. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with X2 Mobile? We were looking for extra resources to support our mobile development projects. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? X2 Mobile allocates a portion of their staff to work alongside our team and expedite the development of several projects. We developed an original application before engaging them, but they help us release new versions for both iOS and Android. Our in-house team provides the designs and X2 Mobile solely assists development. In addition to their web APIs, the app also utilizes a lot of third-party integrations like Twilio and Stripe. What is the team composition? We work with George (Founder & CEO, X2 Mobile) and one project manager. We’ve also communicated with one Android developer and an iOS developer. How did you come to work with X2 Mobile? My business partner found them on Clutch. We decided to work with them based on their experience. They focus solely on mobile app development, so all of their developers are familiar with the tasks we need them to perform. How much have you invested with them? We’ve spent $50,000 so far. What is the status of this engagement? We started working together in May 2017 and the engagement is ongoing. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? We like working with them because they’re super flexible and can reliably supplement the developers we have in-house. Whenever we need to meet a deadline or are tied up in other projects, X2 Mobile contributes extra developers to work as needed. They’ve helped increase our productivity and overall work capacity. How did X2 Mobile perform from a project management standpoint? We’re located in different time zones, but they do an excellent job of working late to overlap with our working hours. We use Slack and Skype to communicate. They’re very well organized. What did you find most impressive about them? X2 Mobile’s biggest strength is mobile development. They don’t focus on a lot of different technologies and that makes them experts at what they do. We’ve engaged with other firms that try to work with any technology, but they often don’t have the expertise to adequately deliver. We also appreciate X2 Mobile’s ability to quickly integrate with an existing project and provide services as needed. Additionally, George traveled to our offices to meet face-to-face and discuss our needs. It’s hard to ask for much more than that. Do you have any advice for potential customers? Have some documentation and designs ready for them. We hand over the exact specifications for what we need and that makes the process reasonably seamless. --- #### App Development for Consumer Products Company **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: $50,000 to $199,999 - Project length: Apr. 2018 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile stabilized and redesigned substandard iOS and Android apps. They currently provide development for additional apps. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** CEO, safelet bv - Industry: Other industries - Client size: 11-50 Employees - Review Type: Online Review - Verified **The Review** — May 18, 2018 **Feedback Summary**: The apps X2 Mobile redesigned have smooth UX/UI, clean code, and are functional stable. X2's ability to deliver on promises within budget and on time is impressive. They easily foresee technical issues and premediate solutions.  ""Even with some hiccups in our relationship, they are always there when I need them most." " **BACKGROUND** Please describe your company and your position there. Safelet BV is a manufacturer of personal safety products that allow users to notify friends and family where they are during an emergency. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire X2 Mobile? We hired X2 Mobile to take over a project that had turned into a nightmare. Our Android and iOS apps were originally developed by another company for a fixed fee. This company cut so many corners to fit our budget that their final apps were fundamentally unstable. What were your goals for this project? We wanted first to improve and stabilize existing, unstable apps. Second, we wanted to work out a long-term plan to rebuild the app step by step to fit within our available budget. **SOLUTION** How did you select this vendor? We found X2 Mobile by doing an online search for companies in Romania. Romania has a great high-tech culture at an affordable cost which makes it an ideal location to find a partner for start-ups. The X2 Mobile director met with us in Amsterdam. He immediately gave us peace-of-mind when we described the situation and he showed us the ways he could help. Describe the project in detail. X2 analyzed existing code and stabilized the app before making more fundamental changes. Their team used an oversight structure to inform us through every step. They also document the apps' coding so we could always take control of the project or bring it to another company. Then, the apps were redesigned and rebuilt within a period of six months. X2 is currently working on multiple iOS and Android products for our clients. What was the team composition? They provide a dedicated iOS and Android developer, and an account manager. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success? X2 Mobile stabilized our apps within two weeks. The apps have clear and excellent UI/UX. Their clean code made sure the apps were stable and running smoothly. How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs? We conduct weekly calls to communicate. We also use Slack and GitHub to keep track of items and their status. We schedule all new requests in ZenHub.  What did you find most impressive about this company? We are impressed by their ability to keep their promises on delivering on time and within budget. They also impress us with the availability of our account manager outside business hours. Even with some hiccups in our relationship, they are always there when I need them most—even if they have to work extra hours. Whenever a new OS release causes issues with the iOS or Android apps, they always create solutions before customers experience problems. They are a great business partner and I will continue to work with them. --- #### Custom iPad App for Warehouse Logistics Tracking **The Project** - Services: Custom Software Development - Project size: $50,000 to $199,999 - Project length: Apr. 2013 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile was brought into to improve the workflows in a parcel distribution site and to make information accessible via tablet to employees on the go within the facility. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 4.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Product Development Head, Parcel Carrier - Industry: Business services - Client size: 51-200 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Feb 15, 2017 **Feedback Summary**: X2's leadership has been heavily involved in the project, especially in the initial requirements gathering, which laid the foundation for a successful long-term partnership. ""I’d especially recommend them to anyone in the startup world who may not have a fully-formed vision." " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I’m the head of product development for a parcel forwarding company. I oversee most of the development for our web app and our internal iPad app. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with X2 Mobile? Initially, we needed a web app for internal processes in our warehouse. Our warehouse employees had to be able to move around while still interacting with our server. We had previously just used computers and a browser, but we decided that we needed a more portable solution. We only had a general idea of what we wanted so we needed to engage a firm who could help up make that idea a reality. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? X2 Mobile built our app from scratch a couple years ago. They’ve made improvements to it since then. We reviewed out-of-the-box solutions, but they didn’t fit our specific needs. We honestly weren’t sure what the best solution would be, so X2 guided us into something that made sense on an iPad. We knew we were going to only use iPads, so they developed the app using Xcode. More recently, they’ve also developed a couple of stand-alone apps for us in Swift, which is leaner and quicker to code. The Xcode app took several months to develop, whereas the Swift apps each only took a month to go from conception to a working version. X2 Mobile also assisted us in finding barcode scanners that met our requirements, altering them to suit our purpose. They built us a custom Arduino interface for the scales and cameras we use. In short, they’ve been able to modify devices in the warehouse, enabling us to more efficiently use them within our proprietary software. When the relationship began, we were only working with George [Purusniuc, co-founder]. Over time, we’ve worked with three different developers who have been really good as well. One developer gets assigned to us at a time, and the one we have now is quick and able to critically analyze issues. How did you come to work with X2 Mobile? I found their profile on one of the freelance sites. I was looking for a firm who was willing to learn details about what we do. George at X2 took the time to ask smart questions about our business and our processes. How much have you invested with X2 Mobile? Over the course of our relationship, we’ve invested over $200,000. Last year, we paid around $60,000–$80,000 for their services. What is the status of this engagement? We started working together in April 2013. They continue to support the app with updates and improvements. After the first six months, we realized that we wanted a long-term relationship with X2, so now we essentially look at them like a salaried employee. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Could you share any evidence that would demonstrate the productivity, quality of work, or the impact of the engagement? I haven’t tracked specific metrics. However, I appreciate that they’re very responsive to production issues or time-sensitive situations. George is really good at spotting issues in the way we plan things out. He’s able to foresee any resulting problems in other parts of the app and advise me on a better direction. How did X2 Mobile perform from a project management standpoint? We use GitHub Issues for all our server-side project tracking and I brought that over to the iOS side as well. I’ll create milestones and hand them over to X2. They charge us an hourly rate and give us a breakdown of the hours on a weekly basis. We communicate using Slack and GitHub Issues. We write out the full explanation of an issue and have a direct discussion about changes on the issue itself. We use Slack for more conversational communication on smaller details. When we have bugs or issues, X2 is good at responding quickly and determining how they can fix those. What did you find most impressive about X2 Mobile? They’re very responsive. There is a time zone difference so we’ve had to contact them well after business hours. Despite this, they were quick to answer a question or spring into action when necessary. Are there any areas X2 Mobile could improve? They could improve the way they communicate expected timelines to us. There have been times when I wasn’t as clear as I should have been regarding project management and they ended up working on projects that weren’t high priority to me. I take some responsibility for that so I can’t fault them too much. --- #### iPad App Stability Enhancements for Media Player **The Project** - Services: Mobile App Development - Project size: Less than $10,000 - Project length: May 2016 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: Prior to X2 Mobile's intervention in the project, the client's iPad app had major stability issues and was lacking desirable features. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Aslan Interactive - Industry: Information technology - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Feb 13, 2017 **Feedback Summary**: The client was very happy with the improved app performance and continues to look to X2 for development of new features. X2 has gone above and beyond by proactively making recommendations in addition to properly executing their assigned objectives. ""Before hiring X2 Mobile, we had a 40% crash rate, but we've come to have a 98% rate of successful sessions." " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. We are web consultants building custom web and mobile apps for a variety of clients. I am a co-owner of the company. My partner and I are responsible for sales and high-level project management. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with X2 Mobile? We had hired another company for the initial build of an iOS app, and have involved several parties for its development. Those companies were either unavailable or didn't perform well, so we started looking for another company which could fix some issues and add new features to the app. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? We've hired X2 Mobile a couple of times, for work on the same iPad application. X2 Mobile took over the development, with our company managing the project on behalf of the client. X2 Mobile made some changes, increasing the app's stability, and added new features. We provided mockups of what we were looking for, as well as high-level requirements. Our client is one of the largest publishers of liturgical music for Catholic churches. They have several hymnals which needed to be displayed on an iPad. The app allows users to download material, turn pages, create lists of hymns to be played, listen to sample music, make annotations, and share lists with other people. How did you come to work with X2 Mobile? I found X2 Mobile on Upwork. X2 Mobile seemed professional, had great ratings, and were responsive during our first contact. We needed someone right away, and X2 Mobile was available immediately. How much have you invested with X2 Mobile? The cost of X2 Mobile's work has been close to $10,000. We pay X2 Mobile through Upwork. What is the status of this engagement? We started working with X2 Mobile in April 2016. X2 Mobile is currently our go-to company for any maintenance or changes to the app. We're currently putting together the set of requirements for a new set of revisions. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Could you share any evidence that would demonstrate the productivity, quality of work, or the impact of the engagement? X2 Mobile has been able to fix stability issues and make the app perform much better than before. Before hiring X2 Mobile, we had a 40% crash rate, but we've come to have a 98% rate of successful sessions. How did X2 Mobile perform from a project management standpoint? We've used Skype and Teamwork, which was our main project management tool at the time. We created an account for X2 Mobile's team and posted tasks and other details. X2 Mobile received alerts for any new requests and responded within the tool. We outsource all our projects to other companies and freelancers throughout the world and try to integrate all of them into a single tool. X2 Mobile was very responsive, more so than we were. X2 Mobile often had to wait for us to get back to a client or come up with more changes. X2 Mobile's team is based in Romania. X2 Mobile's principal visited us in Chicago in the fall of 2016. It was nice to meet him personally. What did you find most impressive about X2 Mobile? Most of our freelancers are given freedom to give recommendations and make changes as they see fit. X2 Mobile has been very good at working with us, instead of only taking care of what we ask them to do. X2 Mobile has offered great suggestions on how the app could be improved. Are there any areas X2 Mobile could improve? There is nothing that I can think of. --- #### UI/UX Design Services for AI-Based Learning Platform **The Project** - Services: UX/UI Design - Project size: Less than $10,000 - Project length: May - June 2025 **Project Summary**: X2 Mobile provided UI/UX design services for an AI-based learning platform.

It tackles the common pain points associated with traditional evaluations as: Storing sensitive data; Difficulty finding and organizing necessary files; Inability to effectively track feedback; Time-consuming data gathering for external evaluators; Finding qualified evaluators to gain valuable external insights. The initial goal for the Audit Center was to assist schools with internal audits, particularly cybersecurity assessments. But during development, valuable user feedback revealed a broader need: Higher relevance: User feedback highlighted a wider applicability for the tool beyond internal audits. Educators expressed a strong desire for functionalities like creating custom rubrics and checklists, utilizing pre-built templates, and tracking progress over time. Data security concerns: The need for a secure platform to store sensitive data and manage access levels for educators and evaluators became crucial. Based on user feedback, the requirements expanded, therefore an agile approach and close communication were essential for the final success of the product. By being in touch with the educators and prioritizing functionalities considered essential by them, our team successfully designed and integrated features like: Custom rubric and checklist creation; Access to pre-built templates; Progress tracking capabilities; Secure data storage with granular access control. In the development process, the backend of the app is built on Node.js using the Express framework and the frontend is built with Angular and NX, a framework for building Angular applications. Sequelize acted as an object-relational mapper (ORM) for interacting with the MySQL database, while user authentication was handled by Passport.js and AWS provided cloud infrastructure for hosting the application. As for design, we used Figma for creating the user interface. ### 10K Users in 10 Days with a 2-Months Mobile App The Red Sea International Film Festival, an annual event showcasing global cinematic talent, is dedicated to celebrating the rich cultural landscape of the Red Sea region. The festival's website provides detailed information about the films, events, and program schedules, but the organizers sought to enhance the festival experience for their audience and guests by creating a mobile app. Challenges: festival attendees were limited to accessing information through the website or physical ticketing points enable push notifications for timely announcements and updates biggest challenge during development was the tight timeline (2 months) Solutions Thanks to strong collaboration between our development team and the partner’s team, we were able to meet the deadline and deliver the project successfully, ensuring that the festival could offer an enhanced experience for its attendees right on time. In the first 10 days after its launch, the app achieved over 10,000 downloads. Technologies Flutter: providing a fast and responsive cross-platform experience Figma: for a design that ensures a user-friendly interface that matched the festival’s brand Firebase: employed for real-time features and notifications, ensuring that users received up-to-date information directly through the app ### Digital Decks for Foundational Skills Instruction The Card Deck App is a tool for teachers that provides digital card decks for foundational skills instruction. It encompasses both SIPPS and Being a Reader programs, which support readers in grades K–12 build skills and confidence for fluent, independent reading. The goal of this project was to successfully replace the physical cards and manuals used in classrooms throughout the United States with an iPad application. Before we became partners with CCC, many teachers were using rubber bands to keep several bundles of cards in place. As many as 20 cards are reviewed every lesson for a single group of students. In terms of UI/UX, we had a free hand from the client, their only request being to use the same fonts from the physical cards and Collaborative Classroom’s brand guide. As a nice-to-have, we were asked to make teaching more accessible for children with learning disorders, such as dyslexia. To assist children with reading disabilities, the Card Deck App offers an alternative font. Letters’ heavy weighted bottoms indicate direction, and their unique shapes help readers not to confuse similar letters, like “b” and “d” or “p” and “q,” thus increasing readability for students with dyslexia. Subsequent to launching the iPad application using the Swift UI, the client also requested an Android version due to teachers’ high demand. For this version, we have used Kotlin. During the whole project, we also used Figma for the UI/UX design. ### AI for a Private & Secure Platform for Memories KINNECT is a mobile app designed to reduce loneliness by creating deeper connections among families through a private, digital space where you can capture, share, and relive memories. At its core, KINNECT allows users to create "StoryBooks" where they can document personal experiences through audio, video, and written formats. The app’s main goal is to strengthen relationships, reduce loneliness, and preserve family legacies by turning everyday moments into lasting memories. The platform integrates advanced AI technologies for personalized prompts, memory categorization, and emotional analysis to enhance the storytelling experience, which is exactly what our goal was in this project. The solutions found helped us deliver a successful product using AI Ideation, AI Build and AI Delivery. We used: Natural Language Processing (NLP) - analyzing user-generated text and detecting emotional tone and key themes Machine Learning Algorithms - dynamic personalization of prompts and adaptive learning from user interaction Graph Analytics - identify connections between family members and shared memories for prompt generation. Multimedia Processing - analyze audio and video content for emotional recognition and memory categorization Sentiment Analysis - integrated into the AI to gauge emotional context and adjust prompts accordingly.   ### Product Prototyping for Social Media App Before the official launch of VCash, the founders wanted to build a critical mass of users to ensure the app's success. However, they were concerned to develop and invest in a full-fledged MVP (minimum viable product) without an informed view on the market and the users themselves. This led them to seek a solution that would allow them to: (1) validate their idea (2) gather feedback without risking a lot of money With this approach, the app can receive focused and relevant feedback early on, reducing the potential costs associated with developing a proof-of-concept (POC) app. The realization that an interactive prototype is a game-changer often occurs in the middle of the development phase for most of our partners, which is why we often advise to start with a product prototyping workshop. A Figma prototype gives you the ability to experience the app's functionality before actual implementation and the prospect of utilizing the designs for immediate user interaction is pivotal in the decision-making process. ### The Perfect Wind & Place with a New Mobile App KiteSpot is the greatest companion for water sports enthusiasts seeking the perfect location for kiteboarding, windsurfing, wing foiling, schools and shops. In a world where finding the ideal spot can make or break a session, KiteSpot ensures that riders, from beginners to experts, have access to over 7000 spots worldwide. As a startup launching their first product with us, they sought a partner to help define and prioritize MVP functionalities. Our role extended beyond development as we delved into understanding the nuances of the kitesurfing sport and its practitioners, enabling us to provide more valuable advice. The motivation for this project was the realization that kitesurfing is a sport practiced in remote, wind-abundant locations. During development, pivotal moments included the challenge of prioritizing features that would bring the greatest benefit to users and deciding between cross-platform and native technology. Finding a balance between the vast amount of functionalities in the backlog and the timeline to launch the first version was like chasing the perfect wind. This was finally achieved by doing thorough research, conducting user interviews and relying on a great collaboration between teams. The results spoke volumes. In the initial two weeks after launch, KiteSpot garnered hundreds of downloads, marking a promising start to its journey. In 3 weeks, the app gathered approximately 400 new users with an increase of 57% in the following week. To build this project, we used Figma, Flutter, Retool and Node.js. ### Personalised Cloud for iPhone & Android app The main goal of this project was to develop iOS and Android mobile apps that mirrored the functionality, design, and branding of the existing Launchpad web app, while also providing schools with a safe and easy solution for accessing all digital resources in one place. The mobile app versions needed to adhere to mobile-specific UI/UX guidelines, as the need for mobile apps arose as US schools increasingly adopted iPads for students. Over the past 10 years we worked together with ClassLink on the LaunchPad app. Security has become a growing focus, requiring us to navigate the complexities of integrating Single Sign-on (SSO) technologies and ensuring seamless functionality for over 6,000 vendor app connections within the mobile apps. This also meant that the project needed a "personalized portal of apps from anywhere while protecting sensitive data with secure Multi-Factor Authentication". The Launchpad app leverages a mix of technologies including Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, Swift, SwiftUI, JavaScript and Firebase. Primarily used in the US, Launchpad is also seeing adoption in European and Asian countries, while also offering:      1. Centralized Access: Access to all your apps, files, and classes from anywhere, on any device. This makes it ideal for Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives and 1-to-1 programs in schools.      2. Seamless Login: Single Sign-On (SSO) integration allows users to sign in once on a website and gain automatic access to the app.      3. Remote Desktop: Run existing Windows applications directly from Launchpad using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) technology.       4. Unified Cloud Storage: The My Files section integrates with popular cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive. You can access, upload, delete, and copy files across all your enabled cloud services in one place. Users: a few hundred in the initial months to thousands within the first year, reaching a few thousand worldwide nowadays. ### iPad App for Warehouse Logistics Tracking This project is represented by the creation of an iPad app to handle processes for a global package forwarding service. The app is linked to a bluetooth barcode scanner and industrial scales and it's used both for receiving shipments and to ship stored items to customers. Some features of the app include:    (1) using a bluetooth barcode scanner to input codes from boxes;    (2) connect to a Rasberry Pi to get the weight from our custom scale system, which communicates with our mobile app;    (3) utilizing OCR technology to recognize text from invoice pictures, significantly reducing manual data entry for cashiers. Our now 10-year partners came initially to us with just a bug in their previous system. They were already using iPads in their warehouse, but the web app was not meeting their needs. It was slow and buggy, and they would need the app to be flexible and mobile so that the employees could move around freely and use the app from anywhere in the warehouse. To solve the bug that the company was having with their web app, we developed a new prototype of the flow that was affected by the bug to remove it. We continued our partnership with various features to improve the efficiency of the warehouse's auto-sorting process. For example, the app allows workers to multipeer sort items. This involves sharing the same sorting flow between multiple devices that communicate with each other using multipeer technology, significantly speeding up the process. The number of users of the iPad app varies from 40 to 100 employees at a time and it is used only internally by the company's warehouse workers. To ensure this project’s success, we chose to use VisionKit, Combine and SwiftUI. ### Verity Dialog's Mobile Transformation Verity Dialog aims to address the critical challenges faced by schools and universities, such as declining enrollment and operational inefficiencies. Our primary goal therefore was to address these challenges faced by educational institutions: to provide their teams with simple and efficient all-day access to their work environment from anywhere. This would enable them to increase student enrollment, retention, or conversion by being more present and responsive to requests or questions that may arise. The main challenge for us was to find the most effective way to develop a mobile application that maintains a consistent user experience and look with the existing web product while also taking into account mobile best practices and features. In order to achieve this, we had to gain a thorough understanding of all the workflows and use cases in the previous app. To deliver a robust and intuitive user experience, we opted for a native development approach, using Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android, which has proven to be highly effective. Beside this, our contribution in UX/UI design, native mobile development, QA, and project management throughout this ongoing project are essential in bringing and keeping Verity Dialog to its best version. The app offers a range of essential features, including:      (1) Secure login: Users can access the app using their existing credentials or through integration with Microsoft and Google accounts.      (2) Efficient communication: The app facilitates seamless communication through calling, texting, and emailing functionalities.      (3) Organized scheduling: Users can create events, set reminders, and manage appointments effectively with the built-in calendar.      (4) Data-driven insights: Analytics features provide valuable data to inform decision-making and optimize workflows. The app has been well-received by users, providing valuable insights for future enhancements. ### Enhancing Public Transport Experience in Real Time Transport Cluj-Napoca is a mobile app designed to enhance public transport usage in the Cluj-Napoca metropolitan area. As part of the EIT Urban Mobility Raptor project, cities from Regional Innovation Scheme countries are seeking startups and SMEs to help them solve critical urban mobility issues. Cluj-Napoca is facing a challenge with increasing reliance on personal cars for daily commutes, resulting in air and noise pollution, and traffic jams. The city's objective is to increase the use of the public bus system connecting the city and surrounding areas. A key issue is the lack of reliability and predictability of the current system. The challenge is to provide users with access to real-time information on schedule changes, wait times, and destination arrival times to increase the use of buses for daily commutes. The app utilizes GPS data to track bus locations every five seconds, enabling accurate predictions of arrival times. This information is presented in a user-friendly interface, more specifically an interactive map, allowing commuters to easily plan their journeys and minimize wait times. The app's prototype received positive feedback from users, with over 90% expressing interest in using the final product. Real-time bus tracking was identified as the most valuable feature, particularly in areas with less frequent bus services. We were responsible for the entire development process, from initial concept to final product. Our team handled: (1) user research (2) product design (3) quality assurance (4) UX/UI design (created using Sketch) (5) backend development (with Node.js) (6) mobile development (using Swift UI for iOS and Kotlin for Android) (7) project management (including stakeholder management with EIT Urban Mobility and the Cluj-Napoca Municipality). ### Reaching Kids in Africa with Educational Content Ubongo is Africa's leading producer of kids' edutainment. As a non-profit social enterprise, they create fun, localised and multi-platform educational content that helps kids learn, while also leverage their learning to improve their lives. Ubongo distributes their digital content in the form of videos, audios, ebooks, games and more. These are available on different platforms (e.g. YouTube, Amazon, Spotify, Google Play Store etc.) and they reach large audiences on some of these platforms. However, this approach of distributing content to their audience has created a fragmented user experience, which leaves kids and caregivers interacting with content in a way that is isolated from Ubongo's wider product ecosystem. The main goal was to solve this by creating a digital space that is safe for kids and offers the optimal user experience for them to watch, listen, read and play with our content. The Ubongo PlayRoom app was developed using Flutter and Firebase. Figma was used to create an interactive prototype of the app, which is a digital mockup of the app that allows users to interact with it and provide early feedback before it is actually built. In our case, the prototype was tested by kids in Kenya and it was really successful. In the first month after launch, on both iOS and Android platforms, the Ubongo app was downloaded nearly 5,000 times by users in Tanzania, Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda. The primary audience for the app is kids aged 3-14, with a secondary audience of caregivers. The second version of this is already in progress. ### Web-Based App for Collaborative Word Study Whole-Class Sorts is a web-based application that allows teachers to execute whole-class instruction sorts digitally. The app utilizes the interactions and framework of Word Works. Designed for collaborative and engaging learning, Whole-Class Sorts provides practice with specific word study concepts, helping students systematically build their understanding of how English words are put together. Therefore the 2 main functionalities are focused on the teacher’s needs for helping students to: sort words using any criteria learn how to form words This project was developed for our partners at the Center of Collaborative Classroom (CCC), a non-profit educational organization, committed to ensuring that all students become readers, writers, and thinkers who learn from, care for, and respect one another. Prior to the development of Whole-Class Sorts, teachers relied on interactive whiteboard (IWB) activities for whole-class instruction sorts. However, the IWBs utilized outdated technology, causing frequent glitches and disruptions. A new solution was needed to replace these unreliable IWB activities. The goal was to phase out IWB activities by the end of 2022. Success involved providing teachers with a user-friendly alternative, ensuring adoption, and offering support for a seamless transition. As a result, students benefited from a more engaging and collaborative learning experience, fostering deeper understanding of word study concepts. A key aspect in building the app in a way that it’s successful for both teachers and students is the end-to-end development. Our team handled the entire development process, from product and UX/UI design to user research, web development, QA testing, and project management, all while using Angular and Sketch for the UI part. The next objective of this app is to align it with 508 standards, ensuring accessibility for its users. ### iPad eBook Reader for Schools - 508 Compliant BookRoom! for CCC is an iOS and Android app that allows the reader to load a book into the device by scanning the barcode on the back cover. It caters to a kid’s unique learning style, as it grants students easy access to the book at all times. It also allows them to change the print size, which benefits children with special educational needs like dyslexia or visual processing disorders.  A library wherever you go, BookRoom! enables you to load and remove books over and over, to your heart’s desire.   ### Tablet Game Help Learning How Words are Formed WorkWorks! was designed to help children learn how words are formed from vowel and syllable patterns, base words, suffixes, and prefixes. The games included in the app are:      1. Build That Word! Children hear a word, and then assemble the word by ordering letters or groups of letters.      2. Sort It Out! Children categorize words based on spelling, sound, or other attributes. This was one of the first projects with the (CCC), who approached us with a clear vision and specific requirements for this app and some requirements for Classview Pro. They had a precise vision in mind, emphasizing the importance of pixel-perfect execution for this project. The reason that prompted CCC to seek our assistance was their decision to digitize their educational resources for schools, allowing students to practice their skills at home. At the time, approximately 6 years ago, we were primarily focused on native development, but we eagerly accepted the challenge that our partners trusted us with. Our development team learned Unity within a month and created the app. The development of WordWorks! ultimately proved to be a success as it has found a user base of approximately 2 million students in the United States. Despite the initial challenges, we overcame the obstacles, expanded our skill set, and delivered a product that perfectly met CCC's expectations. WordWorks! now stands as a starting point to our ongoing 6-year collaboration with CCC. ### LeARn: Bringing School Manuals to Life with AR LeARn is a prototype mobile application developed by X2 Mobile that uses augmented reality to enhance the learning experience for students.  By scanning images in a school manual, the app transforms them into short videos that provide a more interactive and engaging explanation of key concepts. Each year, we hold a hackathon to foster creative thinking and encourage the development of new tools and solutions for the education industry. In the 2022 HAX2 hackathon, our focus was on Augmented Reality, and the winning team came up with the idea for LeARn. LeARn is a mobile application that uses the device camera to scan images in a school manual and play corresponding videos that provide additional details and explanations. The aim of the solution is to make learning more interactive and engaging by using motion pictures. We have demoed LeARn at several events such as Hannover Messe 2022, GITEX 2022, and London EdTech Week 2022, and the feedback from educators and students has been overwhelmingly positive. ### Colors Accessible to All The Scripor Alphabet App is an innovative application designed specifically for the visually impaired to learn and master the Scripor Alphabet, a unique tactile writing system that represents colors. The app's primary goal is to provide an accessible and engaging platform for the blind and visually impaired community to learn about colors and express themselves through this revolutionary alphabet. Some of the key features within the app include:      (1) Tactile Learning: Innovative haptic feedback to create a tangible experience of colors.      (2) Color Exploration: Tools to explore color combinations, blending, and the color spectrum.      (3) Creative Outlet: A canvas for users to create artwork using the Scripor Alphabet.      (4) Accessibility: Designed with screen reader compatibility and adherence to accessibility standards.      (5) Comprehensive Lessons: Interactive lessons on the Scripor Alphabet, including text-based and audio instructions. Traditionally, the Scripor Alphabet was disseminated through physical Braille manuals, limiting its reach and accessibility. The primary challenge was to effectively digitize this tactile system into a mobile app while preserving its core principles and benefits. We employed a user-centric approach, focusing on creating a seamless and accessible digital experience. Prioritizing functionality over aesthetics, the app's design is clean and simple, focusing on providing essential information and avoiding distractions that could hinder usability for visually-impaired users. Launched at the end of April 2023, Scripor Alphabet app is going to serve 280.000.000 visually-impaired people around the world, out of which 30.000.000 from Europe. By leveraging Figma, Flutter and Firebase as tools, but also including feedback and screen reader compatibility, we developed effectively the app that the users needed. ### Assessment iPad App for Student Assessment Data ClassView Pro is a mobile app developed by X2 Mobile for Collaborative Classroom, a mission-driven, nonprofit organization committed to ensuring that all students become readers, writers, and thinkers who learn from, care for, and respect one another.  The new product simplifies collecting, synthesizing, and sharing student assessment data, portfolios, and reporting for the Being a Reader™, Making Meaning®, Being a Writer™ and SIPPS® programs, keeping close tabs on student progress, rolling up individual or group-level information for more efficient reporting.  In January 2023, a new design was implemented, in order to make the app even easier to use.

This includes detailed data on logins and time spent accessing resources within the LaunchPad environment. Schools investing in a multitude of digital learning tools often struggle with tracking usage data. Managing login information and user activity across a vast array of platforms is time-consuming and inefficient. This lack of data transparency makes it difficult for educators to make informed decisions about resource allocation and effectiveness. Recognizing this challenge faced by the existing LaunchPad customers, a clear need for a more robust data analysis solution was identified. To add to that, developing the Analytics+ extension for iOS devices presented a unique challenge. Accessing private user data necessitated innovative solutions. For this project, we leveraged a diverse technology stack, including Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, Swift, SwiftUI, JavaScript, and Firebase for a seamless and powerful application. ClassLink Analytics+ was developed to address the limitations of the initial Analytics tool. Analytics+ goes beyond LaunchPad to capture data on all digital resources accessed by students and staff, even those outside the LaunchPad environment. To address this, we utilized network filter technology, originally designed for content filtering, to capture data about apps and domains accessed on school-issued devices. This comprehensive data collection provides schools with invaluable insights, including:      (1) Equity: Identify potential disparities in access and resource utilization across different student groups.      (2) Engagement: Understand how students and teachers interact with various learning tools.      (3) Purchasing Decisions: Allocate resources based on data-driven evidence of effectiveness and user engagement.      (4) Professional Development: Tailor professional development opportunities based on teacher needs and resource usage data. ### QR, Face & Fingerprint Login iPhone & Android app The Remote Login app was developed to streamline the login process for students and staff, ultimately improving efficiency and security within educational institutions. Two primary use cases drove the development of Remote Login:      (1) Teacher Efficiency: Enabling teachers to quickly and easily log in young students (primarily K-2) to their computers, saving valuable instructional time;      (2) Enhanced Security: Providing a secure method for users to access their LaunchPad accounts from shared or public devices without compromising credentials. With a strong foundation built over decades, the company has cultivated deep relationships with school administrators and educators through extensive in-person engagement. This approach has fostered a deep understanding of user needs and preferences. A primary challenge identified through this ongoing dialogue was the time-consuming task faced by teachers, particularly in early childhood education, when assisting students with logins. This issue was significantly impacting classroom efficiency and instructional time. The Remote Login app has rapidly gained traction since its launch. Within the first year, it facilitated tens of logins per month, and this number has skyrocketed to thousands of monthly logins in subsequent years. This growth metric underscores the app's value proposition and its positive impact on the educational community. While primarily adopted by schools and districts across the United States, the Remote Login app has also garnered interest in Europe and Asia, demonstrating its global applicability. To deliver this solution, our development team leveraged a combination of technologies, including Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, Swift, and Figma. This robust tech stack enabled us to create a user-friendly and secure app that seamlessly integrates with the ClassLink platform. ### ClassLink Verify 2FA Application ClassLink Verify is a TOTP/HOTP based app generating 2-step verification codes so you can log in safely to your apps. Verify is a one time password generator app using TOTP and HOTP. It has similar functionality with Google Authenticator. You can scan a QR to generate the authentication codes or enter a registration key manually.
