In Australia

Reliable Android apps across a wide range of handsets

Customers and crews carry everything from flagship phones to budget handsets and rugged units. We test across a realistic range, so performance holds up on the devices people really have.

We list the devices that matter before designing anything, then build, test and release through Google Play with crash reporting from day one.

  • Tested on real mid-range devices
  • Offline use for patchy signal
  • Source code and accounts in your name

Common situations

What Australian clients usually ask us to solve

Trades, logistics and field teams

Crews moving between the suburbs, warehouses and regional sites need apps that cope with weak signal. We build offline capture, large buttons and clear screens for rough conditions.

Retail, hospitality and service brands

Customers expect ordering, loyalty and booking in an app. We build versions that load quickly on mid-range phones and use notifications sparingly so people keep the app installed.

Businesses replacing a weak app

If an existing app crashes or confuses people, we review it honestly, keep what works and rebuild what does not, so Google Play reviews can begin to recover.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

Ask your own →
Do you build for older Android phones?
Yes, to the level that matches your customers' devices, based on the numbers for your audience.
Will you handle Google Play?
Yes, including the listing, policies and updates, so you do not have to learn the console alone.
Can you track crashes?
Yes, from launch, so problems are caught quickly and fixed before reviews suffer.
Do you build for tablets?
Yes, with layouts designed for larger screens, so the app looks right on tablets.
Can you modernise an old app?
Yes, starting with a review of the code, then fixing the most important problems first.
Do you support the app afterwards?
Yes, with updates for each Android release, so the app keeps running smoothly.
Why native Android rather than cross-platform?
Native gives the strongest access to device features, performance and platform design. If your needs are simpler we will say so and compare cross-platform options with their trade-offs.
Which phones do you test on?
A mix of real phones and tablets, including older and lower-spec models, because emulators miss problems with memory, screen sizes and manufacturer customisations.
Who owns the code and the Play account?
You do. The developer account, signing keys and source code are set up in your name from the start, with documentation so you are never locked in.
Do you maintain apps after release?
Yes. Android versions and Play policies change regularly, so we offer maintenance covering updates, crash monitoring and compatibility fixes, whether or not we built the app.
