App for Auchan's customers in Russia
We have developed the first mobile application for Russian buyers
of the Auchan network. It is much easier and faster
now to plan your shopping and buy needed goods. Find out the price
of each item on the shelf using self-scanning Auchan Scan,
and pay for purchases with the built-in payment system Auchan Pay.

We have developed a convenient mobile tool that allows Auchan to reduce
the number of queues and increase traffic in stores. Before the start
of the project, the client had no experience in integrating
mobile products, so the team had to find a compromise between
business wishes and users’ needs 👌

Cross-Platform Development
Auchan app for iOS and Android is written on Xamarin — an SDK for
cross-platform development. Xamarin applications are developed using
native controls so they look and behave as expected
by a user of a specific operating system.
The architecture based on MVVM allowed to localize of 38% of the code
in the library common for both platforms. The percentage of the total
code in the CI is 95%. The unification of business logic has helped
to increase the stability of the application and to reduce the number
of bugs. A single development team easily solves issues for both iOS
and Android using one programming language and IDE.
Catalog
19 categories of goods and more than 50 000 items are available
to the user. Each product has a detailed description.
In the application, you can arrange delivery or order goods for pickup.
We are working on a complex infrastructure project — developing
Auchan Pay payment tool and other features. We cooperate with other
contractors on the part of the client. For effective communication,
we regularly hold workshops where we discuss architectural solutions together.
We save time and share knowledge.
Self-scanning system
The buyers can find out the price of each product and add
it to the basket for later payment through the application
in one second. They just have to scan the item barcode.
They listen to us as a customer, and at the same time, find a smooth way of ensuring the end-user customer experience is good. They have been very responsive to emails and phone calls, even on weekends. They have their own vision and come up with ideas, which I don’t have to ask them for first.
