THE CHALLENGE
Due to the company’s development and an increase in the number of shipments handled, the client needed a more modern and efficient application for couriers. The existing application worked only on specialized scanners. The new application must also support regular smartphones, processing large amounts of data in close integration with the rest of the client’s system. Offline operation, event queuing and automatic synchronization with the central database after restoration of the Internet connection are also required. As the program is to be used 24/7 by couriers, fast and failure-free operation is a necessary condition.
THE SOLUTION
The new application was created from scratch using the latest version of Xamarin Forms. According to the specification, the application works both on smartphones and on different models of laser scanners, for which individual driver packages have been created. The application supports multilingualism and system communication with different technologies. In order to verify the stability and speed of operation we have performed many unit tests and automatic GUI tests.
THE RESULTS
The application was successfully deployed, fully meeting the customer's expectations. It operates efficiently on both smartphones and laser scanners, providing 24/7 support for couriers with offline functionality and multilingual support.
Modern logistics operations cannot depend on constant network availability. The application stores events locally, queues critical actions, and automatically synchronizes data with central systems once the connection is restored, ensuring uninterrupted courier workflows.
Supporting standard smartphones reduces hardware costs, simplifies device management, and makes scaling operations much easier. At the same time, the application can continue to support specialized scanning equipment where required.
Reliability, performance, offline capabilities, and seamless integration with existing logistics systems are critical factors. The application must handle large volumes of data, support real-time operations, and remain stable under continuous 24/7 use by field teams.
