Enriching the Lives of Veterans with Your Community App

Fitness events are just the beginning.

Team Red, White, and Blue serves the veteran community by focusing on physical activity, social events and community service. They hosts thousands of events every year around the country with hundreds of chapters. Their 200,000 members needed a way to find, register and check in to events and the Team RWB mobile app is the answer. Launched in September 2019, Get it on Google Play or iOS App Store. Don't worry, civilians are welcome to join the fun too!

Team RWB Mobile rolled out on both platforms simultaneously. Built on React Native and Salesforce, Retronyms Labs helped design a custom API that integrated with RWB's existing web stack.

Retronyms Labs depth and breadth of experience has been invaluable.

It’s imperative for the to find partners that have the skill sets and experience to augment my team. Retronyms Labs has done exactly that, but they have done more: They’ve been able to supplement the experience they have with mobile development to help us think through things like architecture, analytics, and scalability.
