Background
The Finnish swimming federation, Uimaliitto, wanted a mobile application for their “Ui elämäsi kuntoon”-campaign, that encourages people to do more swimming activities and helps them grow their swimming fitness and develop their technique. The point of the campaign is to have a competition within different swimming halls, where the hall that has collected the most kilometers in swimming gets a reward. The users of the application can follow their own progress as well as the progress of the different halls.
Our Solution
We developed a mobile application for Uimaliitto, which helps the individual to know about the top swimming pools with their details and the top participant performance for Finland in activities related to swimming, i.e., swimming, water aerobics, water running. The mobile application is available for all the users where they can view all the available data, whereas if the user wants to log their time while participating in certain activities. We used the User stories to find out what is required in the application and started to build the application according to these.
