CheckMyBus is your best helper when it comes to comparing numerous bus offers to seal the best deal!
Finding the best offer for a bus trip may be a challenging task – and CheckMyBus is here to make it easy. Whether it’s just checking the bus schedules or looking for a ride that perfectly matches your needs, you need nothing more than your smartphone.
Challenge
The CheckMyBus application entered an already existing market of bus ticket booking apps. Thus, it had to follow familiar behavioral patterns while offering something unique.
Moreover, they’ve already had an old application. Yet, it was buggy and had a 2 star rating.
From the UX perspective, it meant that users expected a similar experience to the one they’ve got by using other apps. Make it too different – and people are likely to switch back to more usual options.
At the same time, the CheckMyBus application had to go beyond it, giving users a solid reason to prefer it among all the competitors.
Process
To tackle the challenges, we assigned a Full-Stack Team. As the client needed support at all stages – from UI/UX Design to Release – the team included a Project Manager, an App Developer, a Lead Developer, a Designer, and a QA Engineer.
The CheckMyBus apps for iOS and Android were fully delivered in 17 weeks. This time includes all the steps: from the Pre-Project Planning to the Agile Development, to the Release & Handover.
Pre-Project - 3 Weeks
Agile Development - 11 Weeks
Release - 3 Weeks
Solution
To build the CheckMyBus application we used the React Native framework. First, it allowed us to deliver a native experience across both iOS and Android platforms. Second, it helped to keep the development cost-efficient without any loss in speed or performance.
Our Team managed to introduce UX-patterns that are familiar to users while keeping consistency with the CheckMyBus website.
At the same time, we enriched mobile applications with a pixel-perfect UI design and animations. It includes custom date pickers, loading animations, booking screen, and others. Thus, they look fresh and catchy.
Moreover, the rating of the app jumped from 2 stars to 4.6!
Finally, we ensured smooth integration with BackEnd so users can directly access bus information right from carriers. This way users always get the most accurate info on prices, schedules, and stations.

Tino Marx
CTO @ CheckMyBus
"I highly recommend Stormotion as a service provider for app development. They're young, flexible, dynamic, creative and very fast. The cost of planning and implementation is also reasonable. As they use "pay as you go", have a good plan first – then the result also will be satisfactory."

Case studyClaudio Tesei
Head of Cloud Infrastructure @ Atlante
"We originally got in touch with Stormotion from our original app developer.

So, it was really a no-brainer for us to to go with them."

Their collaborative approach, technical expertise, and ability to quickly grasp the vision of the North Guardian app made it clear that they were the right fit."

"If you're thinking of going to Stormotion, you're going to have a very easy team to talk to, to communicate with, to understand what you want to do.

Case studyPietro Saccomani
Founder @ MobiLoud
"The Stormotion team quickly became our team for everything Native app-related. It would be hard to name all the things that we built over the many years we worked together, but overall, I think we had a good partner who was able to adapt the way we worked, and the way they worked. So that we could ultimately build a product that had the quality that we wanted and with the speed that we wanted."
Case studyMax Sheidlock
Product Manager @ Userlutions
"Given a tough budget and a lack of knowledge in our own engineering team, we quickly came to Stormotion. We had already worked together on previous projects, and I knew that, based on React Native, we could have one engineer responsible for it. That was just amazing because I could really focus on our customer side, knowing that the mobile application for the testers was in very good hands."
