Motiday

Next Era Solutions spent six months on the native Android app of Motiday, a UK motivation app, and delivered five Android flows in Kotlin. Before the client closed the app, the whole product reached 1M+ downloads and a 4.7 rating.

Overview

Health & Fitness / Self-improvement

Motiday gave users a daily charge of motivation. Users chose content categories, scheduled their daily motivation, read exclusive articles, saved favorites, shared inspiration, and unlocked Premium content. The client later closed the product, and the app is no longer on Google Play or the App Store. Our engagement lasted six months and covered the native Android app, written in Kotlin. On Android that meant five flows: choosing categories, scheduling daily notifications, saving favorites, sharing content, and the Premium subscription screens. Before it closed, Motiday reached over a million downloads across iOS and Android and a 4.7 rating. Those figures belong to the whole product, not only to our Android work.
