In Newcastle
Reliable Android apps for staff, sites and customers
Many Newcastle employers issue rugged Android devices to crews at ports, mines and workshops, while their customers use every kind of phone. Android app developers in Newcastle confirm which devices matter, then build for gloves, glare and patchy signal.
Kedra Digi works with Newcastle organisations remotely from Perth. You get a named contact, a written plan and regular check-ins, and in-person meetings are available when you want them and it makes sense for the project.
- Gloves and sun considered
- Scanner support
- Managed distribution
Common situations
What Newcastle clients usually ask us to solve
Crews on rugged devices
Industrial and service crews use tough Android handsets with gloves and glare. We design large controls, strong contrast and quick flows, and test on the devices your crews carry.
Community and event apps
Festival, sport and community apps must be light and reliable on many different phones. We test across common handsets and Android versions.
Retail and hospitality
Retail and hospitality apps for loyalty and ordering need to run smoothly on older, cheaper phones as well as new ones.
