Skout is a social discovery platform that allows users to meet new people, chat, and build connections with others nearby or around the world. The mobile application combines location-based discovery, messaging, and social interaction to help users expand their social networks. Founded in 2007, it was, actually, one of the first dating apps in the world. Over the years, Skout has attracted millions of users globally, becoming one of the most recognized social discovery apps in the market
CodigoDelSur began working with Skout shortly after their MVP surpassed 5,000 users. As the platform continued to grow, Skout required additional engineering support to help maintain and further develop the application. Managing a large-scale social platform demands constant improvements to performance, usability, and real-time interaction features, which led Skout to partner with CodigoDelSur to support a mobile app used by millions of users worldwide.
CodigoDelSur worked closely with the Skout team to support the development and improvement of their mobile application. Our engineers collaborated with their product and technical teams to review the MVP, analyze bug logs, and identify key stability and performance challenges. Based on that assessment, we helped stabilize the platform, improve connectivity, and strengthen core features such as user discovery, messaging, and social interaction while contributing to new versions of the apps.
Through this collaboration, CodigoDelSur helped strengthen the Skout platform by improving reliability, usability, and performance. Our team supported the evolution of a large-scale social discovery application that enables users around the world to connect through real-time messaging and location-based features. The app went on to reach over 300 million users at its peak, delivering a smoother experience across iOS and Android devices.
