Purple builds a verified Wi‑Fi app with Volpis, onboarding 80K+ venues

Purple, a UK-based digital connectivity company, faced the challenge of developing a community-driven mobile app, Purple ConneX, for discovering verified public Wi-Fi hotspots. The project involved overcoming evolving product scope, OS-level constraints, and the need for offline functionality with large data volumes. They partnered with the vendor Volpis to address these challenges and bring the product to life.

Volpis implemented a full-cycle solution, providing business analysis, UX/UI design, and native iOS and Android development. They delivered a stable product through an agile process, starting with a proof of concept and moving through MVP development to continuous iteration. As a result, Purple ConneX enables users to seamlessly find, connect to, and contribute information about Wi-Fi networks. The CEO of Purple noted that Volpis was timely, responsive, and trustworthy, delivering a solution that worked and committing to the timeline and budget.
