About Bliggit Mobiele Toepassing

Bliggit is 'n mobiele toepassing wat die dienste van die stad Wuppertal, Duitsland, in 'n enkele aanlyn omgewing saamvoeg. Nuus, vervoer, bankdienste en ontspanningsaktiwiteite word deur een veilige digitale kanaal bereik. Die platform verbind burgers met plaaslike maatskappye, openbare diensverskaffers, verenigings en die plaaslike regering. 'n Aanbevelingsenjin en 'n filterstelsel voorsien gepersonaliseerde resultate, en 'n slim assistent ondersteun daaglikse take soos die bespreking van 'n tafel by 'n restaurant. Bliggit is beskikbaar vir iOS- en Android-toestelle.

Unique Properties: Bliggit is an open platform providing secure digital infrastructure for offering all the services of the city (e.g., news, transport, banking, recreational activities and a lot more) in a single online environment. By creating local synergies and connecting the citizens and service providers of Wuppertal, Bliggit helps strengthen the local community and is mutually beneficial for all stakeholders involved - the citizens, city companies, providers of public services, associations and the local government.

Production Technology: The app is available for iOS and Android devices - https://bliggit.de.

Design Tools: Figma, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and Invision.
Development tools: React, React native and Java.
Design Challenge: Finding balance between proactive services and data protection. German market is very aware and concerned about when and how data is being used. This meant that in the designing process we had to find ways how to build trust for the service and give the user the freedom to choose their preferences.
Research: Preliminary analysis and service design included: Research and Service Design, User interviews, German market research, Personas, Ideation workshops, Name generation workshops, Design based iteration process, Design System.
Inspiration: The citizens should have a comfortable and secure digital infrastructure at their disposal that provides easy and quick personalised access to matters related to daily lives. We wanted to offer the companies and service providers in the city of Wuppertal in Germany an additional well-functioning digital gateway for their services, thus facilitating their availability. The objective of the solution was to tackle the fragmentation of the city services and take a step toward a seamless e-society and make the services offered by the city accessible to the citizens through a single digital channel.
Project Duration: The project started in February 2018 in Tallinn, Estonia and finished in the autumn of 2020 in Wuppertal, Germany. The app is currently live and introduced to other cities in Germany.
Operation Flow: The app is a convenient and free digital solution for the citizens, an easy, quick and personalised way to find answers to matters pertaining to their daily lives. Wuppertal city companies and service providers have now an additional low-cost digital channel for making services even better accessible to the people. They can also use the platform for communicating in real time with all the citizens of Wuppertal, by posting information and using the messaging function. The solution is important at this critical time, when digital infrastructure is indispensable.
