Our company has developed a holiday rentals Booking Management System. We already provide a free website so that people can make bookings online.
We want to provide a free Android App to search for accommodation and make bookings. We will provide the XML (or Json) API and we will need functionality similar to to the "Cottage Finder" app (see Android market), but without the "Nearby" Function. This app is used as an example ONLY. The developer must create their own (better) look and feel for the app.
Need price for app that includes:
* Set options form
* Results list - brief descriptions and images
* Property detail page with images and description and links to Availability Pricing and Booking pages
- Availability shows calendar with availability
- Pricing shows seasonal pricing info
- Booking for to show price and enter guest details and submit booking
All content will come from our server in XML or Json - which do you prefer.
Android 2.2 would be okay.
The app must scale well from phone to tablet
In a phone portrait would probably work best but in a table landscape.
The app must scale and present well in both cases
Must run on Dell Streak 7 and Samsung S2
All content is acquire live via web service in XML or Json. We feel that Json might be better
No payment entered through app - We may introduce at later stage. At this time for payment we may link to SSL web service.
We have XML web service running now for existing WebSites but we will make new one for this app. It will be more compact and probable use re-sized images for properties.
To clarify. This is a quite simple app that communicates with our server using an api that we will provide. The app makes requests on the server and displays results.
