Originally built in C++, Verizon had an existing desktop application built years earlier and available as a download from the site. This app allowed customers to store and organize their digital media locally on a desktop and side-load content from mobile devices.  

In 2012 funding was provided to envision the app again, integrated with a cloud storage service and in HTML, ending the need for customers to download new versions for updates. Below is one of the concepts. This project was shut down in 2013 due to budget cuts.

Project Mission

To create a new digital media management application for Verizon customers that worked with cloud and local storage across device platforms.

Audiences

Strategy

Integrate with cloud storage and accommodate local storage

Build the application in HTML5 that functioned in browser

Incorporate new features like media sharing for customer-owned assets

Develop a simplified interface and incorporate Verizon brand standards

Colleagues: Stefan Frazier, Sudhakar Gaikwad and Mercy Tamilselvi
