Sprint objectives
This is our last Development Sprint before Gate 0 so we have prioritized the pending high level tasks adn we will try to finish as many as possible:
- Refining the way to notify/based on the location. Nail down thing we need to do very well, as the location, beacons detection.
- Implement the POI view
- Implement Call to actions
- Implement FTE
- Provide feedback about the UX, and work
- Navigation in the app
- Metrics, tracking when the app is in background and the current library does not allow us to gather more metrics (As notifications become more advanced more of our code has to run on the native side. We need to be able to call Google Analytics from native code so that we can learn from user interactions with notifications when the app is close). It will be broken in
- Expose user preferences to native code through the Api mechanism.
- Expose the native GA libraries from the react-native-google-analytics-bridge
- Add calls to analytics from notifications and background tasks.
- Distance for GPS beacons
- Move AWS, and take advantage of that to modify the architecture
- Offline update: mentioned Houman's feedback to refocus on creating an amazing UX to test with real users, but at the same time develop the basic functionality of the app (we could try to run a campaign too and check the downloads but with not so aggressive goals of 500 downloads...). Mail to CD and PIB to communicate this
- Could we work on this too? as an extra...:
- Look for POIs in Hawaii?
- Allow people to create their own stories? simple way, something like youtube, channels... the ability to add more channels, without modifying the client/API
Magnet Client Flow for Virtual Beacons
User Stories committed for this sprint
| Task | Assigned | Status | Status Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| As a user when I pass into a GPS point of interest that I am not subscribed to via any channel, I should receive a silent notification | Ongoing | Scanner method has changed. Now the scanner starts when a significant change in the position is detected. Then if there are beacons around, the notification will be received. It will appear in the utility tray as an ‘m’.
If user does not change the position although there is new content around, he will not be notified. Only opening the app will discover the new content.
| |
| As a Product Manager I will be able to check that the statistics already implemented for Physical Web beacons are available for GPS beacons | Ongoing | Although it's done it has not been verified until a bug in iOS can be fixed | |
| When I pass by a point of interest that’s relevant to me, I want to be notified about the POI, even if the application is in the background, so I don’t miss finding out information | Ongoing | Move to Sprint 8 as the iOS part was not ready yet. |
