- 5. development process Development process overview Mobilezapp can generally build custom mobile apps for half the cost and twice as fast as our competition. Our approach to mobile application development is radically different from other mobile application developers. Prior to writing the first line of code, we speak with numerous stakeholders within your organization to determine their goals for the mobile app. We discuss ways to leverage various technologies and understand your platforms to create apps that can assist your organization toward its end goals. Once we acquire good understanding of the core functions of the app, we create wireframes and design the flow & interaction for app functions. Our creative team then develops a user interface that is intuitive, easy-to-use and understand and is your brand extension. We develop a working prototype which you can interact with and understand how the real app will work. The prototype and technical specifications are then used by our development team to code up the mobile app. www.mobilezapp.com 5
- 6. development process Consultative approach & project recommendations Prior to developing the application prototype and writing the first line of code, we speak to each of the stakeholders within your organization responsible for your mobile apps. We spend time learn their primary and secondary goals and determine a mobile strategy to deliver same. We gain an understanding of your competitors and study their mobile strategy. Mobilezapp provides a competitive strategy that analyzes the features, advantages and benefits your competition brings to the market. We provide a detailed report to empower your team with a way to achieve competitive superiority in the mobile application space. We provide advice on how we can proactively promote your application to achieve maximum penetration. Ultimately, we work with you to ensure you receive a tremendous return for your mobile app investment. We are not a mobile application development company - but a mobile app strategy and consultancy company that delivers mobile applications. www.mobilezapp.com 6
- 7. development process Online collaboration Throughout the entire process we work closely with your team. In many ways, your team creates the prototype with Mobilezapp. At each step along the way we demonstrate to your stakeholders the process. You can participate as much, or as little, as you wish. If you are so inclined, you can work with us to even go so far as to work with us on deciding which of the icons we are goiing to use. For example, if we are adding email functions to your app, there are five different buttons in our icon library representing the email function - you can tell us which one you like the best. This is also true for the great majority of the functions - we have numerous different colored and different sizes of icons. We have a wide variety of ways to to lay-out the buttons on the mobile app device - we can have the functions vertically or horizontally, the order of the icons can be changed, we can have a number of validation features, security options and the like. Through our online approval process, you can see the other comments other stakeholders have. www.mobilezapp.com 7
- 8. development process Stakeholder interviews Prior to starting stakeholder interviews, we request you fill out a detailed questionnaire. Based on the responses from your team, we identify the areas where we need more information and we focus the interviews around those areas. During the interview process, as needed, we ask your team to provide us with working demos of the products, services and various backend components. We brainstorm your team about various app functions. Once we are finished with stakeholder interviews we will provide your team with a summary of all the goals and objectives for the app. These interviews are key to our ability to deliver an application that meets or exceeds your expectations. www.mobilezapp.com 8
- 9. development process Wireframes & UX (user experience) design Based on the collected information, we identify the core use cases, functions and primary scenarios for the app. We put together these core use cases and develop a flow to accomplish the desired app functionality. We carefully analyze how a mobile user will perceive, learn and use the app. We create wireframes for various steps in the flow and analyze issues like workflow and navigation. We carefully design the user interactivity and experience as the user steps through this flow in the application - taking into account the on-the-go nature of the mobile user and making each step easy, efficient and relevant. www.mobilezapp.com 9
- 10. development process Graphics and UI (user interface) design Mobilezapp will deliver a mobile application that is not only functional, but looks great too. We believe our creative team is a secret weapon in our arsenal. We give extensive attention to the needs, wants and limitations of the mobile user at each stage of the design process. We design the user interface such that the visual precedence relates clearly to the task importance. When user directly manipulate onscreen objects instead of using separate controls to manipulate them, they are more engaged with the task and the app and readily understand the result of their actions. We understand that the look and feel of the graphics should be an extension of your existing brand. We work with your marketing department to ensure that the mobile app visually integrates harmoniously within your brand. www.mobilezapp.com 10
- 11. development process Prototyping We take the interaction and interface design and create a working prototype of the mobile app. We develop a web browser based prototype as well as a high fidelity prototype that runs directly on the device and incorporates the device form factor. The prototype lets you interact with the application interface just like a real app. You can interact with the interface through clicks, taps, gestures etc just like in a real app. You can get the feel of the scenario flow as you move from screen to screen and can evaluate the navigation and various interactions. www.mobilezapp.com 11
- 12. development process Technical specification Prior to beginning the code, we must write your technical specification document. The technical spec document are quite boring to read, extremely detailed, but essential for the development team. While the prototype is an easy way for your team to understand the functionality of your app, and can be useful for the development team to understand what you are looking for - the tech spec document is the coding blueprint. This tech spec describes in great detail the type of code to be written - what sort of databases we will access, what methodologies and algorithms are needed. We spend a great deal of time working on the technical spec prior to beginning the coding process. Your team will receive, and approve, the tech spec document prior to us developing the code. This also allows us to provide you with a realistic cost for the build of your mobile app. Because we spend such a great deal of time on the prototype, it makes it easier to write an accurate tech spec doc. www.mobilezapp.com 12
- 13. development process Project timeline A typical timeline for the development of your mobile application is given below. Of course, each app is different in terms of functionality, requirements and complexity. Each addition of features, or deletion of features, can alter the timeframe and timeline. Once we receive funding for the proof of concept process it generally takes us a week to collect the needed information for the application requirements through questionnaire and stakeholder interviews. The wireframe and interaction design is delivered within two weeks after finishing the interviews. The graphics and the user interface is delivered by fourth week. And the working prototype is delivered by the end of fifth week. The technical specifications are finalized during the sixth week. Thus - generally within 42 days - we are ready to begin the coding. The code process will take roughly 6 more weeks. Thus the entire process can be delivered within 90 days.

- 15. codemodules Code library There is no need to reinvent the wheel. We have developed hundreds of applications for mobile devices. Mobilezapp can leverage our existing code libraries to built an app much faster and cheaper. For elements of code we will have to write from scratch, we have two options. If you would allow Mobilezapp to add your custom written code to our library for reuse, the cost is roughly half the investment required should the code only be used for your project. You can provide us with an exemption list of competitors, to ensure anything we provide for you would not wind up in the wrong hands. 21 cFr part 11 customizer location based services Qr code/Bar code 3rd party API integration Facebook/Twitter loyalty programs radio Audio messaging Form builder Maps ratings Augmented reality Four square Music library registration Brand builder gPS capabilities MySpace integration Surveys/Polls calculator/cost estimator hIPAAcompliance Online reservations Text messaging coupon delivery linkedIn PcI compliance Ticket purchasing crM connectivity list builder Photo gallery Web browser www.mobilezapp.com 15
- 16. codemodules Augmented reality Augment reality (Ar) combines real-world and computer-generated data, taking information retrieval to another level. Ar takes full advantage of the smart phone hardware, including the compass, accelerometer, and gPS location, to show relevant information, typically superimposed on the display, as shown in the Stella Artois app. Augmented reality provides users with the capability to point their mobile device toward a direction and for the mobile phone to automatically pick up icons with geospatial coordinates. For example - if you were standing on the street corner in new York city at Times Square you could quickly and easily find all of the bars selling Stella Artois beer - or if you were on a freeway you could find the closest gasoline station and the price of the gas for each and the mileage to reach the gas station, or you could point your mobile device in a mall and find stores with special offers pertinent and relevant to the types of products you are looking for. The ways to use augmented reality is only limited by your imagination. www.mobilezapp.com 16
- 17. codemodules Brand building Mobile apps are your brand extensions and properly executed mobile app can add to your brand equity.

- 20. codemodules Cloud computing cloud computing is one of the killer applications for mobile apps. generally speaking, invariably all data being used for mobile computing is stored in a cloud. As mobile devices proliferate, they will be assessing federated clouds of resources running on both public and private infrastructure. Many apps require access to computationally intensive resources like large database management systems, interactive 3D games, location and mapping services - these are all stored in the cloud. Faster network connections and advanced technologies like AjAX, Adobe Flash utilized by browsers provide means for efficient data processing, fast graphics and user interfaces by utilizing backend servers. We offer apps that use all of these advanced technologies and provide tight integration with the backend services in the cloud. www.mobilezapp.com 20

- 23. codemodules Data transfer Over the past four years, we’ve built a number of different vehicles for transferring data from mainframes, Pcs, and servers to mobile devices. There is no limit to the amount of data we can transfer - however speed is always important. Thus, we have developed a data transfer module that takes information such as large image files and compresses the files prior to their transfer. A 20 MB file can be compressed to less than 2 MB - thus what would normally take minutes to transfer can be accomplished in seconds. We also built encryption algorithms to ensure the data could not be read by anyone “listening the airwaves.” This is particularly useful with military or financial data transfers. Our code takes the files, compresses and then encrypts, when the mobile device receives the information, it validates the user based upon their unique user ID and then downloads the data - we can require unique passwords for each file, can validate the user based upon their gPS settings, and can provide summary reports to officers, managers or others. www.mobilezapp.com 23
- 24. codemodules Database integration Mobilezapp has extensive experience working with backend databases and offer streamlined mobile app integration with backend corporate databases.
