Challenges We Faced During On-demand Photographer App Development
We, at Space-O Canada, have designed and developed over 40 on-demand app solutions, giving us extensive experience in the on-demand app development industry. Therefore, we did not face many challenges except only one.
During the development of this on-demand photographer app, our mobile app developers faced only one issue that was deploying the dynamic logic of suggesting a budget feature. Our client wanted to suggest the right budget at every single step of the customer’s requirements, so the code complexity increased during that time.
But, our team of on-demand app developers spent almost two days to resolve this issue by applying a number of logics until this feature works perfectly. At last, our team successfully developed this feature, suggesting the right budget at every step of the customer’s needs.
