Numerco wanted a slick, easy to use app that would help them stand out from their competitors.

Although it only has a small user base, the data that Numerco collate on fuel pricing is useful for buyers, sellers, investors and financial analysts.

The original brief was to show pricing charts as simple images that could be pinched and zoomed. We immediately saw the potential for something much more powerful and developed an interactive graph that updates on-the-go and can be searched and analysed to the users delight.

Alongside dynamic charting; it also features a news section, push notifications and a contact page.

We’ve become experts at building apps that effectively manage large quantities of data, but even for us this project was quite a challenge. We had to learn quickly about nuclear fuels and invested a lot of time into researching how to speedily and accurately display all the data.

We had to devise a completely new way of displaying the data through tables that could be scrolled both vertically and horizontally. Read more about how we did this here: https://www.brightec.co.uk/blog/uicollectionview-using-horizontal-and-vertical-scrolling-sticky-rows-and-columns

We cleverly designed the table screen to utilise as much of the screen as possible, allowing the user to view the table as large as possible. That meant hiding away some of the menu items and using some really intuitive and groundbreaking navigation techniques.
