I have a catalogue of roughly 25 pharmaceutical companies, supplied as Excel sheets and individual PDFs, and I need a lightweight Android application that lets users type a query and instantly locate matching terms inside each product’s description. The project covers everything from converting the source files into a searchable local database through to publishing the finished APK on the Google Play Store under my developer account. Key requirements • Data import: read the Excel rows and PDF text, normalise them, and store them locally or on google sheet. • Core feature: free-text search that highlights occurrences inside the full description—not just by name or code. • Simple UI: a single search field, results list, and a detail screen that renders the full description with basic formatting. No heavy design work needed, just clean Material styling. • Play Store release: handle signing, versioning, privacy policy link, and a concise store listing so the app is live within a month. I am happy with Kotlin or Java; feel free to add sensible libraries such as PDFBox, Apache POI, or Firebase Crashlytics for stability tracking if that speeds development. IT SHOULD BE MAINTAINENACE FREE. AS THE LISTS HAS TO BE UPDATED ON MONTHLY BASIS AND CAN BE DONE BY MY OFFICE TEAM EASILY. When you respond, please focus on your relevant Android experience—previous search-driven apps, Play Store deployments, or database work. I’m aiming to kick off right away and wrap everything up before the month is out, including store approval, so outline how you will meet that timeline and any milestones you propose.

Hi, I would convert the supplied Excel and PDF data into a structured catalogue, keep the master data in an office-managed Google Sheet or published data file, and sync it into a local Room database for fast offline searching. Users will be able to search inside complete product descriptions, view highlighted matches, and open a clean detail screen. I have 5+ years of native Android experience with Kotlin/Java, local databases, API integrations, production app maintenance, and Google Play releases. I will handle signing, versioning, privacy-policy setup, store listing, and submission. The app can be completed and submitted within 3–4 weeks, with store approval subject to Google’s review process. Regards, Hassan

Transforming your Excel and PDF data into a searchable Android app aligns well with Kotlin's capabilities. The key technical decision is where to store the data. Considering maintenance, I recommend using a local SQLite database for easy monthly updates by your team. For ensuring rapid deployment, I'll leverage libraries like PDFBox and Apache POI. The UI will be straightforward, focusing on functionality with Material Design for a clean look. I'll handle signing, versioning, and a clear store listing to meet your one-month timeline. Do you need any integration with cloud services like Firebase for additional features, or should everything remain offline and local?

Hello, Does your office team prefer to update the lists directly in Excel, or are they comfortable with Google Sheets? Also, will the data import need to handle any specific file formats beyond Excel and PDF? Excited about your Android app project! For this app, I'll ensure a smooth transition from your documents to a reliable, searchable database. A key focus will be creating a robust search feature that highlights every instance of user queries for optimal results. We can discuss previous examples in chat. Let's chat to align on specifics and kick off, making sure we meet your timeline smoothly. Feel free to message me for a quick start!
