E-commerce IOS App Development

Job ID: 40005397

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I'm looking for an experienced IOS app developer to create an e-commerce app. The app should include:

Main Functionalities (MVP)

The Minimum Viable Product should be ruthlessly focused on the "Scan → Done" workflow. Avoid feature creep at all costs.

1. One-Tap Scanning


Functionality: The app opens directly to the camera. The user takes a picture of the receipt. That's it. No extra buttons or menus.


Under the Hood: The app automatically detects the edges of the receipt, crops it, enhances the image for readability, and uploads it.


Selling Point: "The fastest way to capture a receipt."

2. AI-Powered Data Extraction


Functionality: Once the image is captured, our AI backend automatically and instantly extracts the key information.


Data Points (MVP):


Vendor Name


Date


Total Amount


Tax Amount


Category (e.g., "Office Supplies," "Meals," "Software") - AI will suggest a category.




Selling Point: "Let AI do the typing. Never manually enter a receipt again."

3. Real-Time Google Sheets Integration


Functionality: The extracted data, along with a link to the scanned receipt image, is instantly added as a new row to a user-designated Google Sheet.


Setup: During onboarding, the user authenticates their Google account and either selects an existing spreadsheet or lets the app create a new one for them with pre-defined columns.


Selling Point: "Your expenses, in your spreadsheet, in real-time. No more exporting CSVs."

4. Simple Onboarding


Functionality: A 3-step onboarding process:

1.
Welcome screen explaining the "Scan → Done" value.

2.
Connect Google Account.

3.
Select or create your destination Google Sheet.

4.
Subscription screen (onboarding paywall).




Selling Point: "Set up in 2 minutes, save hours every month."
