The Sqord Pod is a fun, physical activity tracker designed specifically for kids. Sqord offers a fitness platform where kids can earn points for their healthy activity and compete with friends. This platform already had support for iOS and Android, but the company needed a desktop option for those who don’t have access to a mobile device.
The goal of this project was to build a Mac and Windows application for Sqord users to sync their activity with. The Sqord Pod normally syncs its data with the iOS or Android app over Bluetooth, so the desktop app would need to do the same.
MTech Solutions built the SqordSync application for Mac and Windows. SqordSync is a kid-friendly app with a playful design and easy to use interface. Since the Sqord Pod bracelet uses Bluetooth to transfer data, the desktop solution includes a USB Bluetooth dongle to wirelessly connect the device. The application automatically detects a Pod connection and syncs data seamlessly, which is then transferred to the Sqord central servers. With SqordSync, MTech Solutions provided an effective desktop solution for the Sqord Pod without having to make any changes to the original product.
