Business Overview

Our client is a long-established healthcare technology provider known for manufacturing and distributing advanced systems for diabetes management. These systems connect wearable glucose sensors with mobile apps to help users track their blood sugar levels in real time.

With a growing user base and an increasing demand for regular updates and feature releases, the company aimed to accelerate its delivery cycles. Based on a successful prior collaboration on a number of projects, including those related to cybersecurity, the client engaged NIX to enhance their mobile engineering capabilities. Our deep technical expertise and proven experience with secure, regulated environments made us a natural fit for this case.

Project Scope

NIX was engaged to support and scale mobile development for two applications: one designed for diabetics and another for general health management. Each is delivered as a native iOS and Android app, meaning our team works across four applications in total, covering:

  • Refactoring and optimizing mobile app code
  • Improving and implementing updated UI based on new designs
  • Enhancing core application logic and user flows
  • Supporting regular app releases and updates
  • Collaborating closely with internal development and QA teams

Challenge

Due to the sensitive nature of user health data, the client has to adhere to strict regulatory compliance (HIPAA, FDA, GDPR) and data security. Therefore, updates needed to maintain full compliance with all standards while preserving the stability and accuracy of real-time data tracking.

Moreover, the apps were already live, integrated with medical-grade hardware, and used by thousands of users. We needed a strategic approach to introduce improvements seamlessly without disrupting existing functionality or compromising security.

In addition, the development process had to align with internal workflows and help the client achieve faster release cycles.

Solution

NIX allocated experienced Android and iOS engineers to collaborate directly with the client’s internal teams. Our specialists focus on performance, maintainability, and security, delivering optimized and scalable native mobile codebases for both platforms.

  • Mobile App for Insulin Users and High-risk Patients
  • Mobile App for Non-insulin Users
  • Technology Stack

Outcome

​​With NIX augmenting their internal mobile team, the client accelerated app delivery across both platforms. We helped implement frequent updates, optimize user flows, and enhance UI with new designs — all while maintaining the highest security and compliance standards. Our efforts improved development velocity and gave the company greater control over release planning and scalability.

 

The partnership continues, with NIX remaining an active contributor to the mobile engineering process. We regularly collaborate on new features, app updates, and optimizations to ensure the client’s solutions evolve alongside user expectations and regulatory demands. Together, we’re enabling faster innovation in mobile healthcare technology while safeguarding product quality and user trust.
