Ed.life is a homework planner and class timetable app schedular designed for school going students. The app is a successor of “Homework App” - a wildly successful project fetching over 1 Million organic downloads worldwide.

“Simform worked extremely hard to learn the relevant technologies and complete the project to a high standard. From the initial phases to the end of the project, everything was taken care of in a professional manner. Will definitely go back to them for any future projects. 5 stars for sure.”
We had to ensure that any changes/edits made are retained when users switches between devices.
The app had to preserve and save data locally when internet connectivity wasn’t available.
The app’s counterpart was already used by millions of students across the word. The systems DNA required it to be scalable.
From simple line to complex graphs, everything has been custom built to support various gestures and design elements.
Ed.life facilitates uploading homework related information and visualize it in a user friendly manner. Students can also schedule recurring, repeating and sequential tasks.
Any data that one student enters, can be reused by other students of the same school. Thus, users don’t have to add the same data.
The app utilizes an in-app calendar to organize, view and set up new tasks. A user can also attach multimedia with the tasks. We also implemented in-app purchase so that users can unlock additional benefits and pay for them.
If a user faces any issues, or wish to report a bug to the developers, they can do that from the app itself. Intercom SDK automatically imports state, OS version and type, etc from user’s mobile to help diagnose the problem.
Apart from avoiding write conflicts, Firebase implementation off-loaded any need to build a scalable backend from scratch.
Given the nature and usage of this application, we built technology to prevent write conflicts across multiple devices and added offline working capabilities to the mobile app.
Already featured on Forbes, ABC, Lifehacker and others, the app now help Millions of users to get interoperability across android tablets and mobile devices. Ed.life is currently one of the best Homework apps available worldwide.
