Using Jabrool customer’s application, customers transport goods and other packages from one place to another place within the estimated time period and even same-day delivery.Moreover, Jabrool is one such Uber package delivery app that allows customers to select the delivery type from Jabrool Budget and Jabrool Express for the best user experience and send it to anywhere across Saudi Arabia. In short, this courier solution has made it easy for Saudi Arabia residents to transport goods and packages without any hassle.App Development IdeaHow our client got this on-demand package delivery app ideaBased in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, our client is running a big courier delivery service, allowing people to transport goods from one place to another. Along with the courier delivery business, he has expertise in the IT industry, operations, and management.As he is running the courier delivery business for the last 8 years, he realized that the mobile application could lead to a revolutionary change in his parcel-delivery business. He wanted to be a delivery specialist. In fact, he aims to be the leader of the digital delivery revolution by standardizing the same-day delivery process through on-demand courier application and great customer service.So, he decided to develop an on-demand courier delivery application that connects customers and package-delivery drivers in real-time. Through the mobile application, our client wanted to enable Saudi Arabia people to transport items and manage deliveries easily whether it is small, medium, or large. How he found usAfter deciding to make an on-demand courier delivery application, our client started looking for the mobile app development company, which turns his idea into a successful application. Initially, he found one mobile application development firm from Ukraine and decided to work with it.Then, the Ukraine based company started working on his courier app development project and developed one or two features; however, our client did not get the expected results. So, he decided to stop working with the Ukraine-based company and hire a better team of mobile developers, which meets his business requirements.Ultimately, he found us in his contacts as he had already worked with us for one of his projects. Then, he directly contacted us, described the whole situation about his project, and handed-over the partly developed application.Our Client’s RequirementsWe, at Space-O Technologies, have already developed over 40 on-demand delivery apps with different features and functionalities. And our client also wanted to develop an on-demand package-delivery platform, including customer’s application, delivery driver’s application, and admin panel.With the main aim of making it easy and convenient for his customers to get instant delivery services, our client wanted to develop a complete on-demand package-delivery solution that provides instant access to courier services and deliveries no matter the type and size of customer’s shipment items. Through this parcel delivery app, our client wanted to connect his customers and delivery drivers in real-time.The Very First Step We TookInitially, we decided to spend some time analyzing the partly developed application and review the code provided by our client. Then, considering our client’s business and requirements, our sales representative made one proposal, suggesting important features and functionalities to include in both the apps.Also, we suggested our client to re-skin the design of both the apps (Jabrool Customer’s & Jabrool Diver’s Application) to improve the overall look and feel. After reviewing our suggested features and functionalities, our client instantly got ready for the things we suggested and asked us to proceed ahead.Ultimately, we started designing and developing both the apps that connect drivers and customers. The customer’s application allows customers to transport goods from one place to another across Saudi Arabia whereas the delivery person gets appropriate requests that fit safely in his vehicle and has a chance to earn money.

For iOS application development, we assigned our Sr. iOS developer, who has over 4 years of experience, with special expertise in Objective-C, Swift, and CoreData.Our assigned iOS programmer initially spent some time analyzing the partly developed code and understood its structure. After that, he started developing the application as discussed with our client.While developing the application, our developer faced one small issue in the socket as it disconnected many times when the application was running in the background. Our developer resolved it by updating the latest code of Socket-IO. According to our iOS developer, Socket-IO was used very smartly in this courier-delivery application to make an instant effect like:Sending a new request to the courier.Opening a one-time password screen when the courier reaches to pick-up address.Giving smooth chat experience to courier and customer.Moreover, our iOS developer spent almost 6 weeks to develop Jabrool (Customer & Delivery Driver apps) using the following tools and technologies:Programming Language: Objective-CIDE: xcodeLibrary: Socket.IO for socket related actionsAndroid Application DevelopmentTo develop Jabrool application on the Android platform, we assigned one Android developer, who has more than 3 years of experience in the Android development field.Our assigned Android programmer spent only about 3 months to completely develop Jabrool apps solution on the Android platform.

Every part of the process went as per the agreed schedule, and the finished prototype met, and in most cases, exceeded my expectations.
