OVERVIEW

Sprent is an online delivery system that enables customers to buy anything from any store within their city. Just open the Android or iOS app, pick your category of interest, select the product and the payment method, and track delivery on the map until it’s delivered by the team of “Sprenters” to your door. You don't need to waste your valuable time for the things that "Sprenters" can do faster for you. Sprent operates in the Saudi capital Riyadh and the  coastal city of Jeddah.

story begins

Find a partner
that delivers quality

Sprent had existing Android & iOS apps and was looking for a partner that would provide better quality and develop the app’s backend, admin panel, and mobile applications for both customer and deliverer. After shortlisting and meeting four vendors in Eastern Europe, Sprent selected Uptech as we best met their criteria.

Challenges
and solutions

01

Make the existing
app stable

At the time when the client came to Uptech, the app crash-free rate was only 85%. The first goal was to fix crashes and make the app resilient.

Solution

Uptech team took over the existing app, identified and fixed most of the bugs, reducing the crash-free ratio from 85% to 97+% in both Android and iOS apps.

02

Design & deliver
new functionality

The client wanted to add new features to meet user needs and increase retention. We needed to discover what features to build, design them, validate through user testing, develop, and release.

Solution

Uptech team designed and delivered new features such as a one- click answering system for push notifications, integrated Twilio to allow users to exchange messages, enabled credit card payments through HyperPay, and tracked orders by integrating Google Maps API. Uptech continued supporting the app, allowing users to order and send anything.

Future Plans

Sprent plans to launch Sprent delivery service in other cities of Saudi Arabia, together with more features for users to add products and manage the cart more easily. Spent is also on the path to be the first app in Saudi Arabia to introduce Apple Pay that will simplify the payment flow for users. To improve the store owner experience and offer greater advantages, Sprent plans to launch an extended merchant app.

Many thanks to Fahd, Faisal, and Ali for the great collaboration on the project.
