Smart Tracking & Geofence Control App

This project involved developing a real-time asset tracking application that empowers businesses to monitor and secure their valuable equipment, vehicles, or rentals. Using FlutterFlow and custom API integrations, the app offers geofencing, live tracking, historical data analysis, and panic mode alerts, giving companies greater control over their assets and operations.

✅ Objectives

Build a mobile app integrated with an existing backend to support real-time device tracking.
Implement geofence functionality to notify admins when devices leave defined zones.
Create a user-friendly map experience with custom markers and multiple viewing modes.
Ensure cross-platform scalability for both mobile and web applications.

✅ Key Challenges

Integrating with a custom backend while maintaining app speed and scalability.
Implementing complex Google Maps features (custom markers, geofence logic, satellite view).
Delivering enterprise-level performance while ensuring the app could scale to thousands of devices.

✅ My Solution with FlutterFlow

Geofence Alerts: Designed features that let admins define custom zones. Exiting a zone triggered real-time notifications for immediate response.
Live Tracking & History: Implemented continuous location tracking with full historical data filtering by date.
Panic Mode: Added an emergency mode that increases location update frequency and notifies authorities for asset recovery.
Google Maps Integration: Built a custom Flutter Google Maps component with enhanced markers, geofence visuals, and toggleable satellite view.
Backend Integration: Connected the client’s custom backend to FlutterFlow via API, ensuring smooth data synchronization.
Cross-Platform Scalability: Leveraged FlutterFlow to deliver a scalable front-end, ready for both mobile and web deployments.

✅ Results & Achievements

Delivered a secure, real-time tracking app for industries like logistics, construction, and rentals.
Achieved seamless backend communication with stable and scalable APIs.
Improved user experience with intuitive maps, quick alerts, and responsive design.
Built a foundation that can scale to millions of users, future-proofing the client’s ecosystem.
