Mobile App Development
Zomato is the largest food discovery service and one of the top startups in India. I landed in New Delhi on a midnight in January 2015, and ever since the next day, I’ve been hustling to build one of the best dining experiences you can get in the world at Zomato. In this time, I built the main iOS app for Zomato and also laid down the foundation for the the Zomato Order app. I’ve also led the iOS team (on and off) in building and shipping both apps. I primarily write iOS software but I work in different teams on whatever helps to build the best products for Zomato. I do ideation, conceptualisation, prototyping, and development. Checkout the links for both of these awesome apps. In February 2018, we released the newest redesign of the Zomato iOS app. I had the privilege of writing the blog post announcing all the changes we’ve made in this milestone release. Also if you happen to land on the login page of the app, I made the that you see there! (What do you think of it?) The animation is currently shown as the welcome page on all Zomato products. See more about this in the Medium article above and and links to these apps on the appstore...
