Bluber: an instant chat app for professionals on iOS and Android
ScalaCode built Bluber, a chat app for professionals on iOS and Android. Users message peers and clients one to one or in groups, follow a live news feed and grow their network, and business users sign up with documents that admins check.
Bluber
Bluber wanted a place where professionals chat instantly, talk over the latest news and make business contacts. It had to be secure, quick and easy to use.
What a chat app for professionals needed
Two sign-up paths
Regular users and business users needed separate sign-up journeys.
Authentication for chat
Chat needed dependable user authentication.
Trusted news
News had to come from trusted outlets and stay current.
Admin tools
Admins needed tools to check business users and their documents and manage what they can do.
Full chat features
Users expected one-to-one and group chats with photos, videos and voice clips.
Native chat apps on a Laravel backend
Native apps in Swift and Kotlin connect to a Laravel backend on AWS, and Qiscus handles encrypted chat.
