Android App Development in Sydney
Android app development in Sydney, with an honest answer about iPhone
Our strength is native Android in Kotlin. In Sydney that needs a straight answer up front: iPhones make up a bigger share of phones in Australia than Android does, so an Android-only app reaches fewer of your customers than it would in many other countries.
Android-only makes the most sense where you choose the devices: field teams, warehouses, delivery drivers, kiosks and point-of-sale. For customer apps that need iPhone too, we scope a React Native build separately and say so up front. We do not take on native iOS work.
Where an Android app pays for itself
Sydney trades, logistics and service businesses often hand staff rugged Android phones or tablets. An app built for those devices can replace paper job sheets, photo evidence sent by text, and timesheets filled in on Friday from memory.
Because you control the devices, the app can rely on the camera, GPS and offline storage working the same way on every unit, which makes it cheaper to build and support.
Before you commit to an app
Many customer-facing app ideas work better as a fast mobile website that customers do not have to install. We will ask whether people would actually download it, and suggest a web app instead if that serves you better.
Sound familiar?
The problems we hear most often about this, why they happen and what we would do first.
Why this happens
Information is copied from paper into the office system later, with errors and delays to invoicing.
What we would do first
- Map the job sheet and every field it collects
- Build an Android app that works offline and syncs when back in signal
- Connect it to your job management or accounting software
Why this happens
An app is a big ask for a customer. Many will not install one for a business they use a few times a year.
What we would do first
- Check how often customers come back and what they do each time
- Start with a mobile web app if visits are infrequent
- Build a native app once repeat use justifies it
A one-minute self-check
Tick what is already true for your business. It takes a minute and nothing is sent anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you build iPhone apps?
- Not natively. For apps that must run on iPhone and Android, we scope a React Native build separately and are clear about it in the quote. Our native strength is Android.
- Do you publish the app to Google Play for us?
- Yes, under your business's own developer account, so the app listing belongs to you. Internal staff apps can also be distributed privately.
