The client wanted to improve the existing functionality for creating price offers and asked us to rethink the "Offer Flow" feature, make it more interactive, and up to date.
We wanted to improve the existing functionality to provide more value to GOAT users. And the solution was – a fully custom price selector view for the "Offer Flow" so users can fast and easily set the offer on their own.

Videos on the app add interactivity but often take too much of the device’s resources. The GOAT team wanted to add several videos in the feed, so they played simultaneously. Adding the videos and keeping the user experience smooth was pretty challenging.
We created and implemented the custom logic for videos so they load with no delays and efficiently use the resources of a device. As a result, users can check the product items in dynamic videos and enjoy the app working with no delays.
One way for Dollar Shave Club to achieve this goal was through a mobile app, which would provide them with account management tools to encourage engagement. We implemented such features to keep users engaged: Original Content, Gift Cards, New Business Model with “Handsome discount”, Internationalization — shops in
non-US countries, and much more. We also needed to make sure the implemented design was
pixel-perfect, so that the app provided a smooth experience across all supported Android devices and as few bugs as possible (seriously).

The Black Friday campaign was a big day for GOAT. They didn't want to limit to a simple 'SALE' pop-up but to run a week-long campaign that included various events: raffles, product drops, gamification experiences, etc. Implementing a test like that was challenging for the Uptech engineering team.
We are not afraid of complex tasks, and we know everything is possible if you work like one team. In tight collaboration with the GOAT team, we have been involved in each part of the planning and development:
✅ Initial planning;
✅ Requirements validation;
✅ Features architecture designing;
✅ Development.
As a result, the campaign was launched successfully in time and engaged a huge part of the app's active users.
