Mobile App Development
Android and iOS applications, built once where a shared codebase makes sense.
Most business apps do not need two separate native codebases. We build cross-platform applications that ship to both stores from one codebase, and go native when a project genuinely needs it — heavy device integration, offline-first field work, or strict performance requirements.
Typical investment
KES 350,000 – 2,500,000+
Per project
One platform or both, whether the app must work offline, M-Pesa or card payments, and whether a backend already exists to build against.
The band narrows to a single fixed price in a signed statement of work before any work begins. See bands for every service.
What you get
Deliverables, not adjectives
- Screen-by-screen design agreed before development starts
- A cross-platform or native build, depending on what the requirements justify
- Backend API and data layer, or integration with a system you already run
- Offline handling and sync where the app will be used with poor connectivity
- Store listing preparation and submission to Google Play and the App Store
- Crash reporting and a release process for future updates
Good fit for
Is this the right service?
- Field teams that need to capture data away from a desk
- Services where customers expect an app rather than a mobile site
- Businesses extending an existing web platform to mobile

How we work
From first call to handover
- 01
Discovery call
A free 30-minute conversation about the problem, the constraints and the budget range. If we are not the right fit, we say so on this call.
- 02
Scope & written quote
We define what the first release includes and excludes, then quote it as a fixed price in a statement of work you can take to procurement.
- 03
Design & architecture
Screens and data model agreed before the build. Changing a diagram is cheaper than changing a shipped feature.
- 04
Build in increments
Short cycles with something reviewable at the end of each. You see progress in a working environment, not in a status report.
- 05
Test & launch
Functional, performance and security checks, a staged rollout with a rollback path, and a launch date agreed rather than announced.
- 06
Handover & support
Documentation, training and code in a repository you own — followed by a support retainer if you want us to keep it running.
Questions
What buyers ask before signing
Cross-platform or native?
We recommend cross-platform for most business applications because it halves the maintenance surface. We say so plainly when a project needs native — for example heavy background processing or deep hardware access.
Do you handle store submission?
Yes, including the listing assets, privacy declarations and the review back-and-forth. The developer accounts stay in your company's name.
Will the app work with a poor connection?
If your users need that, we design for it — queueing actions locally and syncing when a connection returns, rather than assuming constant coverage.
Let's scope your mobile apps work
Tell us the problem and the constraints. You get a written scope and a fixed price within three working days — or an honest note that this is not something we should take on.
