Last Update: May 2020
I have developed many different types of iOS Mobile Apps in the last 7-8 years as an iOS Developer. Here, I would like to share some of the iOS apps that I developed.
1. hotspot iOS App
hotspot App is an app for Singapore tourists. Here are some features of the apps:-
Nearby Now: Showing nearby locations which can be categories into Eat, Drink, Shop and Sightseeing.
Welcome Gifts: Tourists may redeem Free Voucher from some of our partners that offer free/discounted services.
Attractions and Tour: Showing various ticketed attractions in Singapore (provided by the Cebu Air Travel Ticket Agency) The users may buy the tickets directly from the hotspot app.
hotspot Wifi Service: Singapore airlines passenger may redeem free 3 days wifi service using SIA PNR on the app. They may collect the hotspot wifi device once they arrive in Singapore. Other tourists may also purchase the 7 days 50GB wifi plan for SGD 15.
Here are some screen shots and demo of the hotspot iOS app:-
For me, it has been quite an interesting experience in working in this project due to working on a combination of software + hardware (The hotspot wifi device). The screen shots below show the wifi device itself and the process of connecting to an activated wifi device via the iOS App.
You may read the details on the hostpot app on this blog post: hotspot iOS app.
You may download the app from: hotspot iOS App.
2. Nestia User iOS App
Nestia User iOS App is a lifestyle app for Singaporean or foreigners who are living in Singapore. There are many features inside the app.
For foreigners who just started to work/study in Singapore, they can use our app to find apartment/condo/room rental. The users of our app also to find the property sales if they are interested to buy a property for permanent stay.
The users who want to know how to get around the Singapore, they can use the transportation functions in our app. The main modules for the transportations are:-
– The MRT Interactive System Map
– The MRT Map
– The Bus Arrival Time
– Direction
– Get-off Alarm
The users of our app can use the MRT map to know all the MRT routes. They can use the Direction to know all the possible way to travel from location A to B using the public transportation. Then, the Bus arrival time is very useful to plan the time for riding a bus.
Other than the transportation, our app also contains:-
– Home Services
– Inbox
– Nearby
The users can use Nearby to check the place of interest around the area that they are living. They can even use our app to hire home services providers for Aircon, Cleaning, Moving, Plumbing, Laundry, Electrical, Paint, Wallpaper, Locksmith and Pest-control.

You can track the location of your family members all the time. It has many interesting features such as:-

Circle Watch is available for both Android and iOS. I am the iOS developer for this app. It is quite a complex project. It took roughly about 6 months to complete (with some changes on the way). As for the iOS version, I completed it within 4 months time and I developed the project from scratch.
This project is the collaboration between the company that I am working with (Secqme Sdn. Bhd.) with a telecommunication company (Maxis Berhad). It is fully developed by Secqme but is branded under Maxis.
For more information: I am sharing the details of my experience in developing Maxis Circle Watch in a blog post.

5. Watch Over Me (WOM) – SecqMe
Watch Over Me (WOM) is an app owned by Secqme Sdn. Bhd. It is a location based security mobile app as well. The app is similar with Maxis Circle Watch in some ways but it has some totally different functions.
The app has been in the market for over 3 years and there are a few different versions of WOM. The one that is currently available on the appstore (as of 18 March 2014) has very limited functions. We call it as WOM 2.0. You can run event and your emergency contact will be able to know your location if your have triggered any emergency.
The new version that will be released to the market soon will have many additional features added. Internally, we call it as Watch Over Me 3.0 (WOM 3.0).
I helped in improving some of the additional features on the WOM 2.0 (older version). As for WOM 3.0, I developed it from scratch. It has a total remade of the User Interface and also added a lot of useful functions.
Here are some screen shots to show the differences between WOM 2.0 and WOM 3.0:-
