2 min read

ASSIST Software is pleased to announce that the Self-SDG Mobile App is now officially available on Google Play and the Apple App Store, marking a major milestone in our collective effort to promote sustainable behaviors among young people. Following the successful completion of development and testing, users can now download the app for free on both Android and iOS devices and begin exploring practical ways to contribute to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). 

What is the Self-SDG App?

The Self-SDG Mobile App is an interactive digital tool designed to help adolescents assess their engagement with the SDGs and take meaningful steps toward a more sustainable lifestyle. Through a combination of self-assessment questions, personalized recommendations, and group participation features, the app encourages users to reflect on their habits, adopt sustainable practices, and collaborate with peers to make a positive impact. The app aims to make sustainability accessible, engaging, and actionable for young people. 

Promoting the Self-SDG App at Stefan cel Mare University of Suceava

To support the app’s launch, on the 5th of November ASSIST organised a dissemination event in Suceava, Romania, dedicated to raising awareness about the SDGs and encouraging students to explore the app’s features. Held at Ștefan cel Mare University of Suceava, the event focused on hands-on interaction, providing students with the opportunity to directly engage with the project team, ask questions, and test the app on their own devices. Many were curious about how technology can support sustainability and were eager to learn how the Self-SDG app can help them understand their personal impact and contribute to Romania’s progress on the SDGs. 

Join the Movement

With the Self-SDG Mobile App now live, we invite students, educators, and community members to download it, explore its features, and join a growing community committed to sustainable development.

 

Download the app today and take your first step toward a more sustainable future!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can you integrate AI into an existing software product?

Absolutely. Our team can assess your current system and recommend how artificial intelligence features, such as automation, recommendation engines, or predictive analytics, can be integrated effectively. Whether it's enhancing user experience or streamlining operations, we ensure AI is added where it delivers real value without disrupting your core functionality.

2. What types of AI projects has ASSIST Software delivered?

We’ve developed AI solutions across industries, from natural language processing in customer support platforms to computer vision in manufacturing and agriculture. Our expertise spans recommendation systems, intelligent automation, predictive analytics, and custom machine learning models tailored to specific business needs.

3. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

4. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

5. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

6. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

7. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.   

Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.
