42 GKPS
Community Membership, Built for Families - A Private Mobile Directory for the 42 Gam Kadva Patidar Samaj.
Project Overview
42 GKPS is a member-only cross-platform mobile application built for the 42 Gam Kadva Patidar Samaj - a community organization managing thousands of members across family units spanning 42 villages. The app gives members secure, private access to their family directory, a powerful community-wide search, rich individual profiles, and organization updates - all from iOS and Android.
Infynno Solutions designed and built the complete mobile experience, turning a backend member database into a fast, everyday app that thousands of community members use to stay connected.
The challenge they faced
Building a community directory app for a large, family-structured organization presents a unique set of product and technical challenges - from household-centric relationships and multi-criteria search across thousands of records to privacy, offline resilience, and monetization without disrupting core navigation.
Family-Centric Relationships, Not a Flat List
Household units (HOF, spouse, children) - not a flat contact list - as the primary organization.
Search Across Thousands of Records
Find members by village, age, blood group, education, and more across thousands of records.
Privacy & Authenticated Access
Sensitive phone, address, and family data requires verified-member-only access.
Sharing Profiles Outside the App
Export and share profiles outside the app without third-party dependencies.
Monetization Without Disrupting Core UX
Community ads and premium placements without interrupting search or family views.
Unreliable Mobile Connectivity
Graceful offline handling, persistent sessions, and no crashes on weak networks.
How we solved it
Family-First Architecture
My Family home screen with household relations; community directory as a deliberate second layer.
Smart Search with Multi-Criteria Filters
Debounced search plus bottom-sheet filters; API called only on apply with infinite scroll.
Dual Authentication for Broad Adoption
Mobile OTP primary, email fallback, password recovery, and persistent sessions with token expiry logout.
On-Device PDF Profile Export
On-device HTML-to-PDF profile generation with native share - no external services.
Non-Intrusive Advertisement Model
Dedicated ads tab with carousels; splash on resume with delayed dismiss - navigation stays clean.
Offline Resilience & Session Persistence
Global offline modal, Redux Persist auth, and contextual errors instead of blank screens.
Core Features
What we built for them
8 purposefully designed features powering the community directory
My Family
The home screen showing all household members with HOF badges, relation labels, phone numbers, and profile photos. Pull-to-refresh keeps the view current.
Advanced Member Search
Debounced keyword search with multi-criteria filters - gender, marital status, native village, education, occupation, blood group, age range - and infinite scroll pagination across the full community directory.
Rich Member Profiles
Personal, education, occupation, and address details. Member code and family code with one-tap copy. Profile photo uploads scoped to own-family members only.
PDF Export
Generate full member profile PDFs on-device via server-rendered HTML conversion, viewable and shareable through the native file viewer.
Authentication
Mobile OTP (+91) and email/password login, forgot password flow, OTP verification, in-app password change, and automatic logout on token expiry.
Advertisements
Category-wise ad carousels in a dedicated tab. Premium splash ads on app foreground with delayed dismiss - monetization that respects the core community experience.
Settings & Account Management
Profile photo upload via camera or gallery with crop. Password change, secure logout, and tap-to-call directly from any member profile.
App Infrastructure
Branded splash screen, force and optional update prompts, offline detection, toast notifications, animated tab bar, and list transition animations throughout.
