About the project
A multi-platform mobile app for Android and iOS that facilitates secure video calls between doctor and patient.
The VideoDoctor application is a useful tool for doctors and patients in the use of so-called telemedicine practices. Doctors and other healthcare professionals use the video calls provided by this mobile app to give advice and check on the condition of patients who do not necessarily require an in-person visit.

Entry
The client approached us with a requirement to create a mobile app for Android and iOS to facilitate communication between doctor and patient.
We like to be involved in projects that use modern technology to improve and facilitate people's lives. The VideoDoctor mobile app is definitely one of them, as it saves time for both the doctor and the patient and makes the treatment itself more efficient.

VideoDoktor mobile app development in 5 steps
As part of the collaboration, we created a multi-platform mobile application VideoDoctor, which provides encrypted telecommunication and remote contact between doctor and patient.
- We went through a series of consultations with the client to clarify the goals of the application and specify its form.
- Based on the findings and UX/UI design provided by the client, we prepared a development plan and price calculation.
- We coded the back-end and front-end of the application.
- We subjected the application to user testing and optimization.
- We have deployed the app to users.
Solution Detail
The actual implementation of the VideoDoktor mobile application was preceded by a series of consultations, which served as a means to clarify the main objectives of the application and the requirements for its creation. Following this, we presented the client with a proposal for the technical solution of the application, a development plan and a more accurate price calculation.
The client then provided us with a user interface design for both iOS and Android and we got to work. We chose React Native as the core technology, which facilitates cross-platform mobile app development. This allowed us to:
- reduce the overall cost of application development,
- speed up the creation process.
We then gradually added all the necessary functionality. The core of the VideoDoctor application is encrypted communication via video call and the related invitation system, which the doctor uses to send invitations to the patient.
To ensure encrypted communication, we used the open-source solution Jitsi, which we adapted to the client's requirements. Thanks to the fact that we built the mobile application on an existing platform, we again accelerated the entire development process and reduced the overall costs, which would have been several times higher in the case of creating a purely custom solution.
All that was left was to sort out the invitation system. Here we chose a method using an authentication code via SMS:
- The patient will receive an SMS invitation with a verification code.
- He enters the authentication code into the application.
- The app provides a connection between the patient and the doctor.
