Chop Dawg partnered with Best Life Group to program retireFIT—a groundbreaking mobile and desktop web application designed for individuals over 40 to take control of their retirement health. Using in‑house design assets provided by Best Life Group, we developed a powerful, mobile‑first solution for iPhone and Android. Our work delivers an engaging platform that captures fitness assessments, tracks daily activities, offers personalized wellness tips, and fosters a vibrant community, ultimately transforming the retirement readiness journey into one of empowerment and lasting impact.
retireFIT is a comprehensive digital platform that uniquely blends physical well‑being with financial planning to help individuals approaching retirement build their “physical retirement account.” By capturing a Best Life Score (BLS) through periodic assessments and tracking daily activities, the app provides personalized recommendations and actionable insights. Best Life Group’s mission—to empower users to live active, fulfilling lives—comes to life through retireFIT, offering a seamless, mobile‑first experience complemented by a robust administrative backend for managing user engagement and performance.
Unlock Your Best Life Score and Build a Healthier, Fulfilling Retirement
In today’s fast-paced world, planning for retirement extends beyond financial considerations—physical wellness is a crucial component of a fulfilling retirement. Best Life Group needed a digital solution that could capture personalized health data, track progress through interactive assessments, and foster a supportive community. The challenge lay in integrating complex health metrics (the Best Life Score), activity tracking, personalized recommendations, and social engagement into one seamless, user-friendly app that runs flawlessly on both iOS and Android.
Chop Dawg and Best Life Group united around a shared vision of empowering individuals to take charge of their retirement wellness. Using design assets provided by Best Life Group’s in‑house team, our expert programmers developed the retireFIT mobile application and administrative desktop portal. Through weekly Zoom meetings, a dedicated Slack channel, and collaborative tools such as JIRA, Confluence, GitHub, and Figma, we ensured every functionality—from Best Life Score assessments to activity logging and community engagement—was seamlessly implemented and rigorously tested.
retireFIT empowers users to transform their retirement vision into reality with personalized assessments, tailored recommendations, and an engaging community—all at their fingertips:
Users complete an initial set of 10 health and fitness assessments—including push‑ups, sit‑ups, squats, and more—to calculate a comprehensive Best Life Score. This score not only reflects their current wellness level but also forecasts their ability to achieve desired retirement lifestyle goals.
Based on periodic BLS assessments and daily activity logs, retireFIT delivers customized tips and actionable recommendations that target each user’s unique strengths and weaknesses, guiding them toward a healthier, more active retirement.
Users can form groups with friends for friendly competition and accountability, share progress on leaderboards, and motivate each other to reach new milestones—all while building a supportive community centered on lifelong wellness.
The app serves as a “physical retirement account” where users earn points for logged workouts and healthy activities, providing a tangible measure of their commitment to a vibrant retirement lifestyle.
Beyond core assessments and activity tracking, retireFIT integrates advanced administrative tools and interactive content that empower users to master their retirement wellness journey:
A dynamic dashboard displays real‑time updates of the Best Life Score, detailed breakdowns of health metrics, and activity trends—offering users a clear picture of their progress and actionable insights for continuous improvement.
Interactive courses and video tutorials provide users with strategies to overcome personal challenges, build strength, and maintain mobility—ensuring that learning and personal growth are always accessible.
The accompanying desktop web portal empowers Best Life Group to manage user accounts, monitor engagement data, and fine‑tune platform features—ensuring that retireFIT remains responsive to user needs and market trends.
Chop Dawg’s role extended far beyond programming—we provided strategic oversight and technical expertise at every step of the retireFIT journey:
Leveraging almost two full decades of app development expertise, our team flawlessly programmed the mobile and desktop solutions, ensuring that every feature—from BLS assessments to community leaderboards—operates seamlessly.
Our dedicated QA team conducted extensive testing across all devices and use cases, ensuring retireFIT meets the highest standards of performance, reliability, and user satisfaction.
Through a maintenance window and bug warranty, along with detailed documentation of our design, product flows, and technical architecture, we’ve empowered Best Life Group to independently manage and scale retireFIT—ensuring long‑term success.
Our agile process kept all stakeholders aligned with regular Zoom sessions, design changes with Figma, continuous Slack updates, and real‑time progress tracking in JIRA and Confluence. This collaborative approach allowed us to swiftly incorporate feedback—from refining assessment modules to perfecting activity logging—resulting in a cohesive, user‑centric digital ecosystem that fully embodies the vision of retireFIT.
Chop Dawg delivered a complete digital ecosystem for retireFIT, including a cross‑platform mobile app for iOS and Android, and an administrative desktop portal. Our work encompassed meticulous programming based on Best Life Group’s designs, rigorous QA, and seamless integration of advanced wellness features—ensuring a transformative, engaging experience for users planning their retirement.
The retireFIT platform operates flawlessly on the latest iOS and Android versions, meeting all necessary security protocols and data regulations. By integrating key third‑party APIs such as Google Analytics, Crashlytics, and OneSignal within a robust backend built on React Native and secure cloud infrastructure, we’ve ensured that retireFIT not only delivers personalized wellness insights in real time but also scales effortlessly as user engagement grows.
Post‑launch, retireFIT benefits from a maintenance window and bug warranty, along with comprehensive documentation covering every aspect of the development process. This empowers Best Life Group to independently manage and expand the platform, ensuring sustained user engagement and continuous innovation in retirement readiness and wellness.
I’m astounded by the incredible work the Chop Dawg team has accomplished! It’s surreal to witness all the months of dedicated effort and perseverance finally paying off, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to play with the app on my actual phone.
