MobiStep SAS ordered a mobile app with a friendly user interface for those who need information about hotels, flats, picturesque regions in France.

The customer required rich functionality for its clients (e.g., a possibility to see photos and contact a person or rent a place).

• A challenge to implement asynchronous data retrieves from web server for quick arrangement of user interface in mobile app;
