ChicMic Studios

I'm the CEO of BetterTogether the #1 social wellbeing and weight loss platform.

We wanted to expand our app capabilities and shorten the time to market of changes we need to deliver to our customers

We interviewed several providers and after a few rounds of interviews and reference calls we had we appreciated their attitude and their experience with other projects and clients and decided to select ChicMic

We started with an initial review of the existing functionality of the app and the business around it. They were followed by a code review by the developer and Q&A sessions to clear any misunderstandings or queries they had. Then we started with simple tasks sprint to validate the E2E delivery process and then moved to more complex sprints and ML. The developments were done on our iOS and Android apps including the backend server based on AWS services.

A project manager was assigned with 1-2 developers per expertise area depending on the load of each sprint.

With every sprint of about 3 weeks, we were able to deliver dozens of enhancements to support our subscription capabilities on both platforms and we saw a significant increase in the number of membership members

We based the communication on daily calls and communication over skype with all the team members and document the tasks requirements and their progress on Asana

On top of the app development skill what impresses us most is their attitude to our success and their commitment to high-quality deliveries. Their dedication is endless and even during the New Year holiday once we had technical issues they were committed to us and worked on fixing critical issues during the holiday and saved us a lot of embarrassments with our customers.

I think they are our perfect partners and being flexible on both sides is the key and would not change anything

I'm the president of a financial education company.

We reached out to ChicMic to develop our mobile learning app.

ChicMic designed and developed our mobile learning app from scratch, incorporating the different training tools we provided.

We worked with about five people, including a project manager.

We found them through an online search. They were a highly rated overseas app developer.

We invested between $10,000–$50,000.

We worked with them from January 2018–February 2019, but they continue to be available to fix any bugs as needed.

ChicMic created exactly what we wanted, and the app has been very well received internally thus far. They also met all of our deadlines and milestones per our requirements.

They were outstanding. During initial meetings with their CEO, they laid out the UI screen by screen for us to view. In addition to meeting all timelines, they also provided a lot of helpful feedback throughout the project to help us improve outcomes.

Their communication skills, timeliness, and attention to detail set them apart. Despite their offshore location, we had no issues with their responsiveness and nothing went wrong throughout the process. Their customer service was consistent from start to finish.

No. It was a great experience all around.

I just recommend working with them, because they're very knowledgeable, responsive to client needs, and committed to deadlines.

I’m the CEO of a mobile app publishing company called Vortex Ventures.

I hired ChicMic to complete the development of my company's first mobile app. My app was a bit too complex for the previous development company I had hired, so ChicMic was tasked to correct apparent glitches and apply new features while ensuring that existing features would function more smoothly.

My goal was to have my app fully functional and polished for release on the App Store.

I was looking for the right balance of price, experience, and expertise. Working with ChicMic for over a year, I can say with full confidence that finding them was like hitting the jackpot.

I constructed a checklist of all features that needed to be addressed. ChicMic’s programmers and supervisors updated the checklist as they completed features, and they shared queries whenever there were questions or requests for clarification.

I worked with a project supervisor and 1–2 other programmers.

The app has only been released on the App Store for a short time, and ad campaigns are still ongoing. So far, users are very pleased.

Their workflow was very effective. Communication throughout the duration of the project was ongoing and very frequent, and we worked really well together. All issues were resolved due to our combined synergy.

Their programmers were highly skilled, and, more importantly, their communication was quick and constant, which is key in business.

No, there’s nothing to note. I highly recommend ChicMic. They'll be my go-to development house for updating features in the future.

The company is BLOCKish Pty Ltd. We're a game creator in Queensland, Australia.

My title is dreamer and director of ideas, development, and prototypes.

We had developed a skills game (board game) that we wanted to transform for the mobile market. We were looking for a small and affordable company to execute this project.

We were looking for full coding of the mobile game for iOS and Android, including game center, single player, multiplayer, and artificial intelligence, such as playing against the computer.

Initially, we had several discussions with the Australian company Appster. They completed an initial functional scope and, through the process, referred us to ChicMic in India.

The budget was between $50,000 and $60,000, and the project was completed within nine months.

The project was completed between January and September 2014.

The project was completed within the time frame and budget – several changes were made during the development process, and the ChicMic team was very professional in accommodating those. Communication was clear and precise, and their team provided valuable suggestions – some of which were included in the game release.

Fantastic all round attitude, clear communication, and always willing to go the extra mile. I would not hesitate to use ChicMic again.

As this was our first mobile release, there are definitely changes that would be incorporated in the next release. Our game, BLOCKish a simple challenger game that's addictive and, is comprised of 400 levels in five different worlds, with single player, multiplayer, guest mode and a three-tier artificial intelligence, it was probably too much as a first release. In hindsight, it would have been far more effective to release with fewer levels and more frequent upgrades. However, ChicMic provided what was requested, and we more than satisfied with the outcome.

The scope included creating a public app for the Clover POS system using Andriod languages. The app most important features include integrating with an existing Clover app, sending notifications to customers, and customizing transactions.

I tested throughout development on a Clover POS machine. The finished product is a completed app that functions as scoped at the beginning of the project. The app is able to sucessfully perform all key features in a way that is easy to understand and use. It looks very user friendly, professional, and well designed.

The project went smoothly because of great communiucation and very timely responses. Though we went over deadlines, the delivered product was exactly what was asked for. Be sure to test at each stage to ensure any bugs/errors are caught, and the team will promptly fix them.

They were very dedicated to a great finished product - one that customers will enjoy using. Becasue of this, they put forth great effort and skill when working on your project.

QA could be a bit smoother - to catch more bugs before delivering milestones. Still, whenver a bug is found, they are very quick about fixing them.
