Itiden Labs

Results from Itiden Labs

Itiden Labs has generated several creative solutions and innovative results, both for our clients and internally. We constantly have our own projects underway, whether that means exploring new technology in our spare time or following ideas when we feel especially creative. Sometimes we simply learn new things, such as how to best run tests, deploy and design services. Other times, our experiments become fully fledged products. This concept helps us support our clients better and make more informed choices when it comes to technical solutions.

When curiosity leads to a product

Here are a few examples of when our curiosity and creativity have resulted in finished products that are available to the public.

I Know Football

I Know Football is the result of a combination of experimental curiosity and a real passion for football within our team. It is a football quiz app, available on both Android and iPhone, perfect for football lovers.

The technology behind it

A powerful backend and a modern frontend work together to give you the ultimate game experience.

Behind the scenes, more than 694000 football questions are generated, ready to challenge your knowledge. Our app communicates smoothly with a server to deliver questions and handle an engaging multiplayer mode.

The app is built in React Native, which enables a smooth launch on both Android and iOS. On the server side, we use Node.js with TypeScript for a robust and scalable backend.

Lessons from the project

• Development of a powerful question engine for generating hundreds of thousands of questions.

• Building real-time solutions for multiplayer competition.

• Deeper knowledge of push notifications.

• Experience with beta testing, bug handling and iterative improvements.

• Design and user experience adapted for the consumer market.

• Creating engaging animations and interactivity.

Home Log

Born from a need identified by a colleague, Home Log, an app for Android and iOS users that allows logging and archiving of events and documentation for the home.

With the app, users can save information such as pictures of paint codes, contact details for tradespeople or receipts for household items. You can also upgrade to a premium membership for extended functionality.

Lessons from the project

• Distributing apps to private individuals.

• Developing features that are restricted or unlocked based on membership.

• What it means to release an app and how to create a maintenance plan for such a product.

• Building apps with design that works on both Android and iOS.

• Creating an easy-to-understand and simple interface without limiting functionality.
