The Challenges
Well, upload and share of video on your smartphone device is not that hard enough, but the real challenge is to upload the video's cut-scene. During the development phase, it wasn't effortless to build an actual video trimmer. But our developer's experience helped us create a custom video trimmer that allows the user to trim the video before making it viral.
Generally, application categories are fixed. But there may be a case where an increase in products or services can result in the addition of menu in apps. Our developers comprehended the scenario and developed a dynamic menu where the addition of the menu by admin will automatically add the menu in the navigation bar.
The scarcity of robust internet services has demolished the video quality. To render the best quality videos inside the application, the development team at Hyperlink Infosystem created customized web services. These web service renders stored videos link directly into the smartphone device to enjoy the best video performance.
The language was the most significant hindrance faced during the app launch. So, to maintain the app standard, we developed an interface that allows you to select between English and Arabic, and as per your selection, the entire application is loaded in that particular language.
