The Project
Hugosite.com-Learn English in 365 Lessons" is an American accent English learning website. The client wanted two apps compatible with iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. While one was to be a purely video app, another was to be and audio app. The purpose of the video app was to act as tool that organizes all videos lessons available on www.hugosite.com and allow users to find and play a lesson, mark it as a favorite, as a problem, or as understood. An important requirement was that the last lesson studied by the user was to be highlighted as a memory aid. The audio app, on the other hand, was a means to use the audio reviews of the video lessons to practice pronunciation. Both apps had to be integrated with over 13 hours of learning material for students.
The Challenges
- Ensuring URL’s could play videos directly from YouTube in WebView
- Developing universal apps compatible with iPhone and iPad
- Design integration to develop app compatible with Android devices
- Deploying a comprehensive search functionality allowing users to find lessons of their choice
- Enabling users to mark their favorite lessons
- Ensuring that over 13 hours of learning material is made available in a seamless easy-to-use and an interactively engaging manner.
The Solution
Our developers ensured seamless project execution by gaining a complete understanding of the project requirements. We made sure of the project meeting the client requirements at each stage of the development process. This resulted in the development of apps that help users learn to speak English faster, with an American accent and in a manner that makes learning convenient and fun.
