_New crew app for iPad demonstrates the power of both the SwiftUI framework to develop native apps and Ditto's Intelligent Edge to enable offline data sync_

**SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / October 25, 2022 /** Ditto, creators of next-generation software that enables apps to synchronize data in real-time without internet connectivity, today announced it is powering a new app built by globally acting airline carrier Lufthansa AG that enables employees to sync important pre-flight data on iPad. The Crew App was built by Lufthansa using Apple's SwiftUI framework and is powered by [Ditto's Intelligent Edge Platform](/platform), a cross-platform peer-to-peer (P2P) database that allows apps to sync with or without network connectivity. The app equips cabin crews with real-time data at their fingertips, assisting them as they search for dangerous or foreign objects, check emergency equipment like fire extinguishers and flashlights, and monitor service equipment. By digitizing traditional paper processes, Lufthansa crews can immediately react to updated data in the app regardless of network infrastructure, which can be non-existent in or around the aircraft and resulting in improved operations.

Bespoke enterprise apps empower organizations to do their best work, yet software developer roles often go unfilled and development costs continue to rise. In response, many try to leverage web applications or cross-platform frameworks or use developers that aren't up to date in mobile application languages. SwiftUI gives enterprises the ability to build their own user-friendly apps across all of Apple's platforms with the power of Apple's Swift programming language, using just one set of tools and APIs. Lufthansa specifically built this app to run natively on iPhone and iPad, leveraging advanced networking of BLE 5 and P2P Wi-Fi, which synthesize flawlessly with Ditto's Intelligent Edge to sync apps faster than ever before without the need for any additional hardware investment.

"Our partnership with Lufthansa underscores the importance of giving enterprises the ability to build their own apps using fewer resources and development costs, thanks to SwiftUI. Ditto's Intelligent Edge technology allows quick deployment with no special hardware or equipment needed, saving time and money all around," said Adam Fish, Ditto co-founder and CEO. "In addition, the digitization of Lufthansa's documents and processes is part of a broader movement to enable deskless workers access to the same tools and efficiencies that desk-bound workers have, and we're excited to continue to invest in that."

"Apple's SwiftUI framework helped us quickly and independently develop our own native iPad app, and Ditto helped us quickly deploy it to our crew's fleet of devices. This app enables us to efficiently support Crews with a comfortable device like an iPad, and we can rest assured that Ditto's Intelligent Edge ensures our data is always up to date, even when network connectivity is poor or altogether unavailable. We look forward to the growing partnership with Ditto as we continue to invest in digitization and offline-first mobile applications," said Michael Hack, Solution Architect, Lufthansa.

The Ditto Intelligent Edge Platform enables nearly any type of edge computing system to share data real-time in a mesh, and without a central server or hardware, processing information at the edge. This provides maximum flexibility to solve some of the toughest data communications challenges.

Ditto's technology gives enterprise customers powerful tools for frontline workers to collaborate in real-time. Industries include aviation, point-of-sale, emergency work, retail, hospitality, and entertainment, where seamless connectivity and real-time data sharing is essential. Ditto's customers include Japan Airlines, Etihad Airways, HugoApp, and the US Air Force.

By digitizing traditional paper processes that can be performed instead on iPad, Lufthansa and Ditto empower crews to do their job quickly and efficiently, from anywhere. The Crew App ensures that data is always synced and up to date, independent of network infrastructure, which can be non-existent inflight or between terminals.

Worldwide, more than 2 billion frontline workers comprise 80 percent of the world's workforce. Their technological needs have been largely underserved in favor of office workers' needs who make up just 20 percent of the workforce. By digitizing frontline workers, companies can boost the productivity, safety, and agility of their workforce, fueling their competitive advantage.

_Opens Door to New Aviation Applications That Enhance Crew and Passenger Experiences_

**SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / December 9, 2021 /** Ditto, creators of mission-critical software infrastructure that enables mobile devices to synchronize data in real-time even without internet connectivity, today announced the company and its customer, Japan Airlines, have successfully completed an in-flight meal ordering application pilot. The Ditto-powered application for the first time allowed JAL crew to process passenger orders and communicate using mobile devices without an internet connection. Ditto is a real-time database which allows information to be stored and transmitted across multiple server locations all the way to a mesh of edge devices in difficult-to-connect environments.

Unreliable internet connectivity during ground operations and inside the aircraft means applications which require consistent connectivity to sync, like task management and meal ordering, can't function in or around the plane. Ditto eliminates this problem by enabling peer-to-peer synchronization, allowing devices to communicate and sync data directly with other devices in real time.

The successful pilot opens the door for airlines to create cutting-edge digital experiences using only the mobile devices already on the aircraft, such as tablets and mobile phones. Japan Airlines, which leads the industry in exemplary passenger service, recognized the potential to increase crew communications efficiencies and the airline's overall passenger experience. This pilot complements JAL's existing inflight priorities of contactless anti-COVID service, personalization, and innovation.

"JAL is the leading air carrier for good reasons: a passion for passenger experience, dedication to efficiency, and for ensuring their operations run smoothly around the clock. They absolutely set the tone for the rest of the industry," said Adam Fish, CEO and co-founder of Ditto. "The problem with a lack of real-time synchronization is that it inhibits new technologies from working properly. Ditto solves this with an elegant solution."

The meal ordering application is contactless, keeping passengers and crew from having to share devices by letting passengers order meals from their own phones. The crew were able to use Apple iPads to reliably trace passenger orders which were synced in real-time throughout the duration of the flight. Ditto also enables ground crews to more efficiently conduct maintenance activities, leading to faster turnaround times and a higher on-time flight performance.

Ditto manages the complexity of using multiple network transports such as Bluetooth, P2P Wi-Fi and LANs to find and connect with other devices, automatically syncing any and all changes.

The company's groundbreaking technology has attracted leaders across many industries, including restaurant point-of-sale, defense, emergency work, retail, hospitality, entertainment, and aviation where seamless connectivity and real-time data sharing is essential.
