**Project description:**
The client has two Mobile apps, firstly built around 8 years ago. iOS is still utilizing a good amount of Objective-C (legacy), new features are being built on Swift. Android is the same, mostly Java (legacy), migrating to Kotlin. Apps are Hybrid. Major part of apps is built using Web Containers (their website, embedded into an app). This is a cost/effort-reducing approach, however it ties hands in terms of building new features, and lacks good UI/UX, considered legacy and not so favored by engineers (and users. Hybrid features are Shop, Browse, Checkout - basically e-commerce Core. In the long run, they might consider Flutter/React Native to go cross-platform and will need our guidance.
Tentative features they are looking to implement (assuming on iOS first): 
– Onboarding flow 
– Beacons (In-Store notifications?) 
– Firebase Notifications 
– Message Inbox etc.
