Phone INFO ★SAM★ - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

Yes, I have developed several software programs on Windows and had some coding experience before I started developing mobile apps.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

This app is designed specifically for Samsung and it has a lot of unique features that other similar apps don’t have. But there are a lot of Samsung models; moreover, Samsung continuously strengthens and tightens its security policy. So, it is a big challenge to make an app that works with various device models.

Name a few of your favorite apps and reason you love them.

There are several apps that I use every day: Google Maps, Shazam, CamScanner, Dumpster, etc.

How long have you been working on this app?

The initial version of this app was built in 3 weeks. But I continue to update and improve it all the time.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

As an ordinary user, I realize that users need to know various forms of information about their device; such as where and when the phone was manufactured, how frequently/how hard it has been used, what is hardware and software configuration, and a lot of other information. This app provides users with all of this useful information.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

As said above, this app provides many forms of unique information and features that other similar apps don’t have. Some of the info/features are Country of Origin info, Manufacturing Date info, Refurbishment Check, S/N, and IMEI Analyzer, Knox Warranty info, CSC related info, OTA info, Usage History info, Battery Health info. And there are a lot of other info/features as well.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

I will try to upgrade the app to make it work with other phone brands and not only Samsung devices.

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

If users face any problem while using the app, it’s better to contact the author to report the issue before down rating the app on the Play Store. That also will help to improve the app's performance and user experience.
