The Client
Five Stop Story is an innovative electronic publisher, specialising in short stories by new writers. Our stories can be read in five stops on the London Underground and are targeted at a mainstream audience of commuters and students.
After receiving the brief for the App it was clear that The Core would provide the ideal platform to support the proposed app development. By providing a customised back-end administration system the Five Stop Story staff are able to manage story submissions as well as competition entries – proofing the content and assigning visibility to both the iPhone and iPad apps as well as integrating the content in the existing website.
Working with the team at The Distance has been a pleasure. From the very beginning it was clear these were the guys for the job: Unlike their competitors, they had taken the time to fully understand the scope of the project, the timeframes and the deliverables.
Throughout the project they offered expert insight and guidance on the user interface and made recommendations for tweaks and improvements, building on their extensive experience in app design and development.
The Distance are a hard-working, friendly team, who are passionate about their role in getting the best possible app to market. They always respond quickly to feedback and are serious about meeting deadlines and client commitments.
