Buymie to expand outside grocery vertical with Woodie’s partnership

Woodie’s, the market leader in DIY, home and garden, today announces that it is partnering with same-day delivery platform buymie.

From October 10th, customers in South East Dublin can avail of buymie’s personal shopping services to order 20,000 DIY and home improvement products from their nearest Woodie’s store and receive their shopping to their doorstep in as little as two hours.

The new service named “Woodie’s powered by buymie” emulates the successful and extended UK trial “Asda Express powered by buymie” in Leeds and Bristol where buymie has integrated into the leading retailer’s broad offering of delivery options.

The customised Woodie’s app was designed by buymie in partnership with the Woodie’s team,  which will see the retailer leverage the innovative routing and delivery capabilities of buymie, as well as its dedicated network of independent personal shoppers. It makes them the first retailer in Ireland to access buymie’s newest platform enterprise technology.

The new Woodie’s powered by buymie app will be available in both app stores from mid October. In addition, existing buymie app shoppers will have the ability to shop Woodie’s extensive product catalogue via the buymie app.

The pilot will initially see shopping services being provided exclusively in South East Dublin, with a view to expanding nationally soon after.

Items will be picked and packed from the shelves by a dedicated team in Woodie’s and buymie personal shoppers will deliver the order at the selected time or in as little as two hours.  buymie’s delivery services will cater for small to medium-sized products such as paint, tools, accessories and seasonal lines.

Woodie’s is 100% Irish owned and the market leader for DIY, home and garden. They offer an extensive range of paint, DIY tools, gardening, homewares and seasonal products.

The partnership is the ‘first of its kind’ for buymie as it expands its personal, same-day service into a new vertical while maintaining its commitment to facilitating efficient and sustainable personal shopping services to time-poor individuals and families.

Suzanne Quinn, Woodie’s Chief Commercial Officer, said:

Our online business has seen rapid growth in recent years and this partnership allows us to further build and grow our omnichannel proposition, keeping ease and expertise at our core. This partnership with buymie is an important step for us as we continue to find new ways to help our customers shop the way that suits them.

Speaking about the partnership, Devan Hughes, CEO & Co-Founder of buymie said: “We have all run out of paint during a project and done the run to Woodie’s in our overalls! We are thrilled to launch this trial with a household brand like Woodie’s who is keen to expand the same-day delivery offering to Woodie’s and buymie customers. This trial demonstrates buymie’s wider ambition to bring the same-day, delivery model outside of the traditional grocery shopping space and to other areas in the wider retail sphere while continuing our commitment in delighting time-poor individuals”.

Founded in 2016, buymie is a leading player in the rapidly evolving same day grocery delivery market. The business has expanded to a team of 70+ with a network of over 400 personal shoppers to meet the increasing demand for grocery home delivery, a trend which has accelerated dramatically during the Covid-19 pandemic.

By using local personal shoppers picking from local stores, the buymie delivery service has been delighting time-poor customers in Ireland and the UK. Customers are able to note specific preferences on their orders and can opt-in for a call from their shopper in-store if items are out of stock. Unlike traditional eCommerce solutions, buymie can deliver on the same day and can fulfil orders in as little as 1-hour.

buymie works closely with official Irish retail partners Dunnes Stores and Lidl. The new partnership with Woodies will see buymie branch outside the traditional grocery space and into alternative areas of retail for the first time.

Consumers who are interested in getting their shopping delivered through buymie can download the buymie app for either iOS or Android devices.

Pivo launches ‘Lock-On Tracking’ mode to track one person in busy environments

Pivo Inc, a leading developer of AI-technology for content creators, is upgrading its smart pods to include ‘Lock-On Tracking’ mode. Whether users want to capture themselves in a crowded place or record footage with more people in the shot, this new feature means Pivo will follow the star of the show’s movement, keeping them in the frame at all times, regardless of what is happening around them.

Using Pivo is like having a personal camera crew. Powered by AI-technology, the Pivo smartphone mount, which can rotate 360 degrees, automatically tracks a user’s face and body movements. It follows them at all times, zooming in and out, to make sure they are always in focus and in the frame. The new ‘Lock-On Tracking’ mode gives users even more control, by allowing them to manually select themselves in an environment where there are other people. This ensures the Pivo Pod stays locked on the correct person at all times.

“Our vision at Pivo is to become the creator-tech brand for the next digital era. Our community is at the heart of this — we want to support them to make sure they get the best experience. So when our users asked for single person motion-tracking, we prioritised it with our development team to get the feature ready as soon as we could. ‘Lock-On Tracking’ will make content creation even easier as you will no longer have to worry about who else is in the frame. This is a huge milestone for Pivo and we’re excited to share this with the world.” says CEO Ken Kim.

Pivo Pods enable users to capture videos and photos of themselves. With powerful app-driven motion tracking and easy-to-learn editing modes, creating content solo has never been so easy. Pivo has two models to choose from including:

Pivo Pod Active:

The Pivo Pod Active offers accurate tracking for faster movements, making it ideal for sports and fitness content creators and activities like dancing, athletics, skating and horse riding. Pivo Pod Active can be used in both portrait and landscape orientation, has four different speed modes as well as face, body and horse tracking, ensuring every moment of fast-paced content is captured, eliminating the need for a costly videographer or expensive camera and equipment.

The Pivo Pod Active comes with a companion remote and charging cable and is easy to use out of the box, no technical photography expertise required — users can focus on creating content they’re passionate about immediately.

The mount is compatible with tripods, including Pivo’s own standard Tripod and Tripod Mini (purchased separately) which both have a ¼″ UN thread universal mount, making them compatible with other devices including cameras.

Pivo Pod Lite:

For content creators whose videos don’t involve lots of high speed movement, Pivo’s entry level tracking mount, Pod Lite, uses the same AI tracking technology, freeing up their hands and allowing them to create content solo, without having someone else filming.

Pivo Apps:

In addition to the hardware, a free companion app, Pivo+, integrates with Pivo Pod Active, allowing creators to host live fitness classes and video calls using the same auto-tracking technology, taking fitness and sports content to the next level and allowing for more interactive content.

A second standalone free app, Pivo Play (available on Google Play and App Store) allows creators to create fun edits designed with social media engagement in mind.

Pivo Pod Active is available now for £124.99 from the Pivo website, Amazon and Currys. Pivo Pod Lite is just £69.99 and available in seven stylish colours. To use the new ‘Lock-On Tracking’ mode download or update the Pivo+ app which is available from the Apple App Store and Google Play.

TCS is New Title Partner of TCS London Marathon: Promotes Technology for Sustainability and Healthy Lifestyles

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) today announced its priorities and new innovations as title partner, to enrich the TCS London Marathon experience through technology, and to make the event more sustainable, inclusive, accessible, and enjoyable.

Through the six-year partnership, TCS will prioritise enhancing the participant and supporter experience of the event to deliver on TCS London Marathon’s vision of inspiring sports-related activities and charitable giving. TCS has launched several new features for its official race app, which in 2021 set a record by being downloaded nearly 500,000 times. It is now available for download on the iOS App Store and Google Play Store.

The new app features include:

  1. The Belief Booster feature enables supporters to share encouraging messages for participants. A selection of messages will be displayed on the finish line LED gantry as runners approach the famous TCS London Marathon finish line on The Mall. Messages will also be shared in a post-race email to the participant, along with an option to upload to social media.
  2. Event participants could already allow up to three spectators to find their live location on the course in London. This feature is now available for virtual participants too, so they can share their actual live location, as opposed to their distance run being shown on the TCS London Marathon course.

TCS will continue to promote the innovative use of technology to transform marathon experience for everyone. This year TCS is providing an enhanced data warehouse with conceptual data modelling, which has helped London Marathon Events (LME) derive customer insights from diverse datasets to support decision making and strategy.

The TCS Mini London Marathon and TCS in the community

This year, the first ever mass TCS Mini London Marathon, where children of all abilities aged 4 to 17 can run, walk or wheel a 1 mile or 2.6km course. TCS has pledged to donate £10 per participant to the schools taking part, to be used to buy new IT equipment. The new mass TCS Mini London Marathon will also include the traditional Championship events for the best young runners across the UK.

TCS is working with its chosen charity of the year, City Year UK, to register all 20+ of its schools for the Mini London Marathon this year. TCS is also partnering with City Year to help address education inequality in some of the UK’s most disadvantaged communities. The Mini Marathon events will be held on October 1st, 2022 in London, and between September 26th and October 21st in schools across the UK.

To enhance its sustainability, LME will be using the ReScore app for the 2023 TCS London Marathon, developed by TCS for the Council for Responsible Sport. This will help LME verify the event’s sustainability progress to help reach its goals of net zero carbon emissions across its own operations by 2024 and remove more carbon than it emits across all operations by 2025. ReScore is a TCS-designed, cloud-based application, which enables event organisers to measure, track, report, and verify their progress on a broad range of environmental and social indicators for sports events.

Amit Kapur, Country Head, TCS UK and Ireland, said: “In our first year as title partner of the TCS London Marathon, we will use technology to promote inclusion, sustainability, and healthier choices for communities. We believe in using technology to reimagine and transform companies and communities to drive a positive impact in society.”

Hugh Brasher, Event Director, TCS London Marathon, commented, “We are delighted that TCS is now our official title sponsor and are excited about all the different initiatives we have planned. As we build and develop our six-year partnership with TCS, we are working together to drive forward LME’s digital transformation, allowing us to inspire millions more to build a healthy, active lifestyle, as well as raising even more for charities.”

In addition to the TCS London Marathon, TCS is also the official title partner of other distance running events around the world, including the TCS New York City Marathon, the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon, the TCS Amsterdam Marathon and TCS Lidingöloppet.

TCS’ mission is to provide trusted and innovative, best-in-class consulting, IT solutions, services and digital transformation support to ensure enterprises achieve their key business objectives. TCS is the number one supplier of software and IT services to the UK market, by revenue. It currently employs over 20,000 people in the UK and Ireland, including over 1,000 people located at the TCS Global Delivery Centre in Letterkenny, Co. Donegal.

Why Flutter is The Next Big Thing in Mobile App Development!

In order to maintain a strong digital presence, mobile app development has become a necessary thing for large corporations as well as SMEs. When it comes to creating mobile applications, iOS and Android are two of the most popular options. 

Different kinds of code are required for each of these platforms in order to build applications for them. Clients and mobile app development firms faced a challenge when they realized they needed to create two separate apps for iOS and Android.

Cross-platform application software such as Flutter helps in making mobile apps that can run on a wide variety of systems while still being written in a single language. Flutter has been around in the market since 2017. It has gained popularity because of its features, such as quick and fast app development and upgrades on both iOS and Android platforms. 

There are so many app development companies who believe that Flutter development is the next big thing. Let’s take a look at why you should choose Flutter to develop your business’s mobile app.

Why Flutter is The Future of Mobile App Development?

Here are the reasons why app development company prefers Flutter:

Rapid App Development

Since Flutter is cross-platform, it’s possible to use the exact same code for both Android and iOS. This eventually shortens the amount of time required to develop an app. This does not mean that you will require half of the time to develop the app, still, having one codebase for both platforms can help you focus on something else as well.

Updates to Android and iOS Apps Happen at the Same Time

When using a cross-platform development tool like Flutter, you can make apps for both platforms at the same time, so there’s no need to choose or focus on one platform at a time. Keep in mind that Apps for iOS and Android must also be reviewed before they can be made available to the general public.

Simple UI Design

Thanks to sharing the same code between platforms, only a single UI design is required. Cross-platform apps can take one of two approaches: either they completely reinvent the user experience by combining the greatest features of iOS and Android, or they adhere to the Material Design principles with only small tweaks for each platform using Flutter.

Easy Maintenance

Once the app is developed and ready to be released, you need to shift your focus to expanding the user base. In most cases, this means putting the program into “maintenance mode,” where fixing existing issues takes priority over adding new ones. 

Normally, companies think about hiring employees when it comes to maintaining the app and fixing any bugs or issues. However, with Flutter, you don’t have to spend any extra amount by hiring other employees as the software is capable of taking care of your mobile app.

Tried and Tested Technology

The first stable version of Flutter was released on December 4, 2018, making it a relatively young technology in the world of mobile app development. However, it has already been tried and tested in the real world by companies like Google, eBay, Alibaba, BMW, Toyota, etc. So, you can trust Flutter while thinking about designing your mobile app for Android and iOS. 

Instant Fuschia Support

With the help of Google’s newest operating system, Fuchsia, it is possible to create a production-ready operating system that doesn’t skimp on speed, stability, or security. Fuchsia is a framework that helps mobile app designers and developers create robust, cross-platform apps and user experiences. 

The Flutter framework is a useful tool for developing on Fuchsia. If you’re developing a mobile app in Flutter, you can deploy it to Fuchsia on the very first day. As a result, you may see a rise in the number of people who download and use your app right away.

Stable Performance

The Flutter source code is compiled before a mobile app is made available to the public. Because of this, native components can be interacted with without resorting to the web view or the JavaScript engine. Flutter’s code is drawn on the system canvas. This adds even more efficiency to the application. The framework team is very pleased with the fact that they have been able to maintain a stable frame rate of 60 or 120 FPS on a wide variety of systems.

Bottom Lines

You will be amazed to know that some of the biggest names in business have already used Flutter to develop their apps. If you want to make something that can run on multiple platforms, you should consider using Flutter. Rapid deployment, concurrent app upgrades, sharing a single codebase across iOS and Android, and enhanced efficiency are just some of the many advantages. This may be one of the reasons for its ever-increasing fame as a cross-platform framework.

How Digital Wallets Are Changing Online Transactions

Historians separate human history into different eras that defined the time’s culture, technological development, and societal development. This practice gives phrases like the “Classical Period,” the Dark Ages, the Industrial Era, etc. And while often this nomenclature is not the most accurate, it is undoubtedly the case that our current era will most likely go down in history as the Digital or Cyber era.

After all, it is true that in today’s world, our society is much more digitally advanced than it has ever been. More importantly, we live in a time when digital and cyber technology is developing at an unimaginable rate. People increasingly want the availability and accessibility of the internet and computer science. Whether it be online shopping, paying bills online, or storing cash online, most people are willing to accept these changes with open arms.

What are Digital Wallets?

Before we get to the nitty gritty, we must first describe digital wallets. After all, the phenomenon is relatively new, and it is necessary to explain what they are to those who might not know. So, just what is a digital wallet?

The term refers to a service that allows people to store money and perform transactions online. Most people reading this have likely heard of certain digital wallets, even if they are unfamiliar with the term itself. Paypal, the Cash App, etc., are hugely popular among various groups of people, especially online punters, and gamblers. It is because many online casinos accept Cash App payments and deposits.

And so, now that we have explained what digital wallets are let us delve deeper into the phenomenon. Are digital wallets the new currency? And just why are they becoming so popular anyways? Why are digital wallets so important, and what can they be used for? Let’s find out.

What Makes Digital Wallets So Popular?

So, just how popular are digital wallets? According to a study that looked into 2021 transactions, Digital wallets made up almost half of the global e-commerce transactions. The precise percentage is 49%, more than double the percentage of credit card e-commerce transactions, which remained at 21%. According to experts, the projection for the end of 2022 is that the percentage of e-com transactions will reach 50%, and may even exceed that number by the end of the next year.

But what is it that makes digital wallets so popular? The most common reason you will hear people say that digital wallets are growing in fame is the streamlined process that digital wallet users follow to make their payments. Simply put, digital wallet development has led to many satisfied consumers. They all claim that transactions move much smoother and faster than most would be familiar with traditional transactions.

Future of Digital Wallets

But still, the question of the future of digital wallets remains. So, what do you think the future of digital wallets will be? Will they remain and continue to grow in popularity? Or will people turn their backs on them and look at digital wallets as an outdated fad? Most analysts and experts seem to think we are heading in a direction that supports the former. After all, more and more people recognize digital wallets as a viable and superior method for making transactions online.

However, some remain suspicious, especially considering the distrust people already have towards the cyber world. Luckily, there are many ways that users can protect themselves from cybercriminals. Furthermore, digital wallet development is placing more and more emphasis on cyber security. This means that it is very likely that the future of digital wallets will result in easier and faster transactions and safer transaction sells.

Wrapping It Up 

As more and more younger people grow into adulthood, digital wallets’ popularity is increasing. Younger people are far more likely to embrace new technology simply because they are far more likely to understand it, having grown up during the period when the technology was first introduced.

Popular digital wallets like Cash App and PayPal are growing in popularity and are being accepted by more markets each year. And of course, with each passing year, the technology behind digital wallets is improving, making them safer, faster, and overall better. With all this in mind, digital wallets’ future seems relatively bright.
