Executive Summary
Ever thought of an application for the mobile phone that could alert you with emergency broadcast streams in real time along with text message to warn you of the disaster that can occur in future? Here is an app that focuses on these as well as some other services such as ambulance dispatch, fire departments, highway patrol and many more. Our client was keen to develop an app for the Android platform that would enable users to know about the forthcoming disaster. After having listed the requirements, the client was in search of a reliable and efficient software development partner to build the application.
Client’s search for the right Android app development company ended at Mindfire Solutions. After few quick discussions with Mindfire’s technical team, the client could judge the capability of our unit and awarded the project to us. Mindfire took no time in understanding the objectives of the client and started work immediately. The end result developed was a plug-in in Android that streams the media buffer of a radio channel over an internet and plays the media buffer with the native media player. The client was very happy to have received a fully functional app in time without much of involvement with the developers during the development phase.
