Challenge
The CEO of the VRWorkout, with whom we had previously collaborated on another project, approached us with a specific goal in mind. He envisioned an application that would leave a lasting impression, boasting an edgy and elegant UI/UX design. Our Partner's goal also involves creating a community centered around the product.
The purpose of creating the VRWorkout app was to provide users with a seamless and enjoyable experience across mobile and web platforms, focusing on features such as easy pairing with Oculus devices, smooth account creation, effortless sharing capabilities, immersive HIIT training with headsets, data fetching for user profiles through pairing and timely reminders for upcoming workouts.
Our task was to deliver stunning UI/UX designs and develop an MVP version of the VRWorkout mobile app.
The app:
- Enables seamless pairing with Oculus devices
- Equips users with valuable workout information, ensuring they have the knowledge they need to achieve their fitness goals
- Provides a convenient solution for filling in fields that can be challenging to complete using Oculus in the Metaverse, making the user interaction smoother and more efficient
- Enhances the training experience with a collection of engaging articles and captivating video introductions, helping users stay motivated and informed throughout their fitness journey.

Project's scope
The scope of the project involved preparing the UI/UX design, followed by the Flutter development of the mobile application in its MVP version. This encompassed quality assurance (QA) testing and backend development.
In collaboration with our Partner, we conducted a product design workshop to shape the idea, create comprehensive documentation and refine the scope of the MVP through functional wireframes and design. This iterative process allowed us to establish a clear development roadmap.
Our UI/UX team has also implemented some UX improvements for the VR game. Additionally, we provided backend support.
We continue to work closely with our Partner to further enhance and develop the application based on user feedback and evolving needs. Our ongoing collaboration ensures that the app remains up-to-date and aligned with our Partner's goals and objectives.
Solution
In terms of technology, for the backend, we selected the technologies prevalent in VRWorkout, while leveraging Flutter as a reliable and proven cross-platform solution, as it has been successfully used in our previous projects.
The technological stack used for this project included a Python-based backend developed with Flask and Flask-Security frameworks, and the database was MySQL. The solution was deployed on an Ubuntu Droplet hosted on DigitalOcean.
The integration with Oculus devices ensured a seamless and immersive experience for users. Our Partner was particularly impressed with the designer's work who delivered a UI/UX design that perfectly captured the essence of the app.
App speed and performance were a priority, so we used Flutter's optimized graphics components to make sure VRWourkout will run smoothly. Our Flutter developers diligently optimized the app's performance to give users a great experience.
