General Notes

Note the following :

- The app will be locked to Portrait mode

- Show a progress indicator (spinner) when transitioning between screens

- Only phone is in scope. Tablet is not in scope. App should support all devices above from Android 6.0 and above

- The implementation must be a native application, native controls must be used wherever possible

- All code must be written in Java and the project must use latest Android Studio. Use gradle for dependency management

- Please ask in the forums if you wish to use any open-source third-party libs to ensure there are no license violations

- Do NOT hardcode data directly into screens. Use JSON files as appropriate. The code should allow easy integration to APIs which will be developed later.

Final Submission Guidelines
