Axones decided to participate in the Challenge launched by Adobe: The Adobe Mobile Challenge.
The idea is to create an application based on Adobe Air technology and using a Flex framework. This application would be portable on many mobile terminals (smartphone & tablets). We took this opportunity to imagine an application facilitating the management of Agile projects. Indeed Axones chose to create an application for Planning Poker.

� The planning poker is a fun and effective way to produce estimates of the complexity of features to be developed as part of a project with agile methods.
� How it works : � The Scrum master creates the project, tasks and users participating to the
Planning Poker.
� When the poker is started, each participant is asked to give a note of complexity to the task presented.
� Then the Scrum master displays the votes, he arbitrates by assigning the appropriate rating.
This is how all the project tasks are evaluated and prioritized in a typical agile project.

Anyone can access the application, which is completely identical regardless of the terminal thanks to technologies Air and Flex. In our business, mobility is essential, employees are not always in the office. But everyone has a mean of communication: laptops, mobile, shelves ... That’s why Pocket Agile became interested in multi-platform but also for remote collaboration! With the application we can work collaboratively from anywhere and through any terminal !

� Today, several applications to do planning poker already exists in the various AppStores
� They are limited in the sense that: � You use your terminal as a card deck, to show others your quotation around
a table � It is based on a single terminal
� What we propose is fundamentally different: � All platforms supported by Adobe Air/Flex are available, so users are not
restricted on a single terminal � The application has a collaborative back end supported by LCDS which
allow remote quotations � Users are no longer required to sit in the same room

� Step 4 : Assign users For each project you can assign users with different profiles. Only Scrum master and Admin can manage the project (item, vote, users…). When you add a new user, this one immediately receives an email containing a temporary password and the mean to obtain Pocket Agile.

� In short : � One technology for one application, which works on every terminal. It is no longer
needed to recreate the same application with different mobile languages/framework.
� You can access this application from any terminal, and from anywhere (if you have a 3G or Wifi connexion).
� It allows collaborative work, facilitating planning poker between users separated by distance.

Some bugs where reported, we are currently correcting them. Due to the short time frame for the challenge, the new version had not been yet republished on all the app stores. In order to avoid surprises, we mention them here.
� Sometimes the application does not respond, it "works" (display the charging icon) but it is blocked. Then it is necessary to restart.
� Right in the planning poker, the “Return back” button shows the “Disconnect” icon but the link remains functional.
� Sometimes during the planning poker, when you click the “Return back” button, there is the transition except that you're on the same page. You have to click on it 3 times to get back to the page you asked for.
