Task
Develop an MVP iOS application that transforms procrastination into learning Spanish.
Over 20% of users retained in the first week after launch.
EdLock helps users pick up new Spanish words while using their favourite apps like social media, games, and video streaming. There's no need to carve out special study time, as learning is seamlessly integrated into daily activities.
The goal was to develop a minimum viable product (MVP) to test the viability of the client's idea.
We implemented an intuitive interface and set up the subscription model logic within the app.
We designed onboarding that grants access to screen time and sends notifications. Lottie animations based on the Lottie library were added to create an engaging interface. These animations are highly adaptable, lightweight, and quick to load.
Users can set their language proficiency level, making the app valuable for both beginners and advanced learners. They also choose which apps will trigger the quiz and the interval between quizzes. In the basic version, the time is fixed, while in EdLock Plus, it is customisable.
The client came up with an original idea for EdLock’s operation logic, where new information is delivered on the lock screen of other apps.
The lock screen interface is customised using the SwiftUI framework. The restriction on using other apps is implemented via the Screen Time API: it also integrates the logic for saving quiz results.
The extension sends local push notifications after the user answers. This is an original development solution with no analogues.
The app's game mechanics make learning fun. Users earn achievements based on the number of words learned and correct answers – either consecutively or cumulatively. This fosters a sense of progress and motivates continued learning.
During development, we faced Apple's restrictions regarding design and app access. Gradients, custom backgrounds, fonts, and text sizes were not permitted. Therefore, we incorporated blur and transparency elements to add dynamism to the screen design.

"I've been familiar with deeep for a long time as we've collaborated multiple times. When the idea to launch a startup came up, I knew I'd turn to this company to develop an MVP for my product. The first app launch happened in Kazakhstan, we tested retention, and now we're ready to launch in other countries."
