Case Study

MyCoach

MyCoach is a Swiss health and nutrition company which helps people to lose weight, adopt a healthier way of eating or actively manage their illness.

UPPER was instrumental in helping us form a mobile team that quickly turned our paper prototypes into iOS and Android applications deployed to 1000s of Swiss companies.
