Cool Charm is a product owned by a company named Cool Charm Friends. With the proliferation of mobile apps, we have numerous social applications available in the app store. Dating a person and traveling while socializing a group of people all together on a single platform was indeed tricky. To unite everything on a single platform, an Australian-based company approached Hyperlink Infosystem to develop a social application interface that helps people date with similar people, find traveling buddies, and make friends with new acquaintances. Cool Charm was developed to collaborate all social variables at a single place connecting more people with the world.
Generally while chatting, sending one-to-one message requires a huge amount of management. Managing queue of un-send messages during low internet connectivity was indeed the biggest challenge faced by developers. Managing seamless communication between two parties was questionable. The development team of Hyperlink InfoSystem provided seamless chatting experience between both the parties by integrating Sinch libraries. Using Sinch, our developers coded algorithm that stores copies of unsend messages in the cloud and when connected with the internet, delivers all those pending messages to another party. They were indeed successful in leveraging seamless messaging experience like that of WhatsApp.
In Cool Charm, finding nearby people and their interests are based on users choice and preferences. Management and generation of users interest were indeed a hard task especially when changes are noticed in users preferences. It needs to load the results based on its interest filtration. Our developers overcome this challenge by developing a smart algorithm that filters users interest with nearby people and acquaintances, every time user changes its preference.
In Cool Charm, generation of news feed was based on users friend list. It means, if the user has accepted a friend request, then only he will be able to view his/her status and feeds. Management of this UI was quite difficult. The development team of Hyperlink InfoSystem smartly managed the view by using an S3 bucket that loads the happenings of their friends each time it opens feeds.
Cool Charm has a feature that if a user has blocked someone, their all details including feeds, stories, interest listing etc needs to be eliminated from the app. Separating the blocked users from unblocked one and mapping all the app data was quite hard and tedious. Our backend team overcomes this complexity by generating a custom algorithm that filters and separates the database of blocked users and its activities from the unblocked ones.
