ποΈ From "fix our UI" to a full app launch β here's what happened
A client came to me with a fitness app that had hit a dead end: their previous designer was gone, no revisions left, and the existing UI had structural flaws baking technical debt straight into the product.
Instead of patching it, I rebuilt it β end to end.
What shipped in 14 weeks:
π± React Native app (iOS + Android, one codebase)
βοΈ Node.js + Firebase backend (auth, real-time sync, analytics)
π¨ Full Figma UI/UX overhaul
π₯ Workout tracking, nutrition dashboard, AI-assisted insights, coaching + community features
π App Store-ready deployment
The wildest part? It started as a design-only gig. Trust + delivery turned it into a full product partnership.

The redesign looks cool and modern. But for daily use the dark cards feel a bit heavy making them lighter would give you the best of both worlds. Did you test how easy it is to read on the go?
