What we built for them
Our team at IT Idol undertook a comprehensive initiative to enhance Kotak Bank's field operations

Our team at IT Idol undertook a comprehensive initiative to enhance Kotak Bank’s field operations by implementing critical features in their mobile application.

Firstly, Live Sync changes were incorporated into the offline segment of the application, enabling the systematic upload of documents to the community server. This functionality facilitated seamless document management, with the application intelligently queuing uploads for situations when the user was offline, thereby ensuring data integrity.

Our team implemented strong encryption for the local database that the application created on devices because they understood the value of data security. This security measure aims to safeguard sensitive details stored on the device from potential unauthorized access, enhancing overall data protection.

Additionally, our team addressed image cropping issues faced in the document management screen, contributing to an improved and user-friendly experience. The application primarily caters to the challenges faced by field agents in the loan department, offering a solution that allows them to store applicant details and documents locally on their devices without a network connection. Upon returning online, the field agent can seamlessly sync the data with the server, either uploading details directly if a network connection is available or queuing uploads for later.

The application incorporates database encryption to fortify data stored locally on the device, preventing unauthorized attempts to access sensitive information. Moreover, the application introduces features such as image watermarking, allowing users to add details like location, date, time, and organization name to scanned images. Users also have the flexibility to edit and merge scanned images, enhancing the application’s versatility.

The application’s capacity to dynamically manage various organizations and posts within the same framework while responding to changing circumstances further emphasizes its dynamic nature. Importantly, it is designed with a minimally hard-coded approach, making it a completely dynamic application that can be tailored to specific needs.
