Meditation App
Courses, audio practices and podcasts with background playback and a subscription
What it gave the business
A product you listen to rather than look at: the practice keeps going with the screen off, so the subscription no longer depends on holding the phone.
The problem
A content project around body, mind and soul needed an app where a practice keeps playing with the screen off, and full access opens with a subscription.
My role
The whole app: the audio engine with background playback, courses and content, subscriptions.
What was built
- Structured courses with lessons, audio meditations and podcasts
- Background playback controlled from the notification shade and the lock screen
- Tracking of total practice time and streaks
- A paid subscription unlocking full access
The engineering core
Audio is the part no ready-made component covers: the player, audio sessions, lock-screen controls and background playback were written for this task and behave the same on iOS and Android. 51k lines, 157 files, dozens of release builds.
