Ronald has a complete web-based iDispensaries. AES technologies has assisted him in taking his mission to the next level by making his application mobile.
An iPhone and Android application was developed for iDispensaries to help patients/patrons search for their desired services on the go. With the mobile application it is very useful and easy for the patients to locate their desired service anytime and anywhere.
The user can extend his search limit varying from 1 mile to 25,000 miles. The user can make his search based on city, state, postal-code or by name of the firm.
The Patients/ Patrons not only have access to the locator services but also to an extensive Cannabis resource database.
The major challenge was to derive accurate search results based on the location of the user. There were issues faced when the system was not able to identify the location. The team worked extensively on the GPS and made sure that the system provides accurate results at any point of time.
The other challenges were understanding the existing system and deriving features that can enhance the available functionality.
The timeline provided was extremely tight and this ad-hoc requirement was somewhat off-track to the regular course of development plan.
The team worked extra hours and over several weekends to successfully meet the client’s time line.
The mobile application provides accurate search results to the user from anywhere. The application is available as a free download and a paid download. The free download can be upgraded anytime based on the user’s satisfaction. iDispensaries unveils the following functionalities to the user.
