Case study: a custom mobile app and website
GPS Treasure Hunt is a project developed by Heroz Software. The app and website show how different components can work together to create a complete digital service: from managing and paying for a treasure hunt to following the route in a mobile app. The techniques used in this project can also be applied to business challenges such as integrations, customer portals, and process automation.
GPS Treasure Hunt
The Android app is used for GPS treasure hunts with a pirate theme. Treasure hunts can be created and managed through the website.
