Mobile apps for problems
that live in pockets.

Driver, field-service, customer, internal. Tap any app on the phone to try a real flow we’ve shipped for a client.

Tap any app icon to see a real interaction. Three of these are flows we’ve shipped for clients: driver dispatch, AI quoting, and call handling.

Where it earns its keep

Six places where a mobile app actually pays back.

Drivers and field crews

GPS tracking, job dispatch, signature capture, offline-first sync for when the cell signal drops. The pattern behind our logistics SaaS work.

Customer-facing tools

Bookings, loyalty, order status, in-app messaging, push notifications. Apps that earn their place on the home screen.

Internal team apps

Shop-floor checklists, retail stock counts, audit trails, photo uploads. The stuff a web app on a phone screen can’t quite do well.

Health, fitness, wellness

Sensor and HealthKit integration, motion data, sleep, daily nudges. We hold the privacy bar especially high here.

Logistics and trades

Route planning, time tracking, quoting from a job site, machine inspection. Apps designed for one hand and gloves on.

Offline-first workflows

Inspections, surveys, field reporting in places without coverage. Local persistence, conflict resolution, background sync when the bars come back.

Native, hybrid, or web?

We pick the shape per problem, not per fashion.

a.

Native (Swift / Kotlin) for apps that demand it.

High-frame-rate UI, deep OS integration, HealthKit, ARKit, complex camera or audio work, hand-tuned performance. When you genuinely need it, accept no substitute.

b.

Cross-platform (Flutter or React Native) for shared codebases.

Most business apps live here. One codebase, two stores, predictable maintenance. We default to Flutter for new builds, React Native when there’s an existing team familiar with it.

c.

Progressive web apps when an app store isn’t worth the trouble.

If you don’t need push, offline, or deep OS integration, a well-built PWA is faster to ship, easier to update and free of the store review tax. We will say so when it applies.
