The context

A social app for your closest friends: a photo taken on the fly lands straight on their lock screen, with no feed and no pressure. Everything relies on native iOS integration.

What I did

  • Concept: private social, small circles of friends
  • Mobile app in React Native and Expo
  • Lock screen widgets and Live Activities in native Swift
  • Deep links from the lock screen to the right screen of the app
  • Onboarding, invitations, one to one and small group sharing
  • Notifications and near real time states
  • Testing, performance and release

The result

A distinctive social product shipped end to end, showing my command of native iOS features and of what makes social apps work.
