About the App
SwiftDrop wanted to disrupt the local delivery market but had a tight timeline and budget. We chose Flutter to build beautiful, native-feeling apps for both iOS and Android from a single codebase. The powerful backend was built using Laravel, providing an elegant and secure API for driver routing, order management, and real-time location tracking via Firebase.
Technologies Used
✗Challenges
- •Need for simultaneous iOS and Android launch within 3 months.
- •High battery drain from continuous GPS tracking in the driver app.
- •Complex driver-to-customer matching algorithms.
✓Solutions
- •Utilized Flutter to cut frontend development time in half while maintaining native performance.
- •Optimized background geolocation tracking to reduce battery consumption by 40%.
- •Built a highly efficient matching engine in Laravel using geospatial queries.
- •Integrated Firebase Cloud Messaging for instant order notifications.
