Mobile apps built for Uganda's mobile-first users
Uganda is a mobile-first country. We build apps that work on mid-range Android phones, load fast on 4G and 3G, and keep working when internet drops.
iOS & Android
We build cross-platform apps using React Native — one codebase, two platforms, lower cost, and easier to maintain.
Offline-first architecture
Critical app functions continue working without internet. Data syncs when connectivity returns. Essential for Uganda's network realities.
Mobile money integration
MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, Visa, and Mastercard payment flows integrated from the start — not bolted on later.
Push notifications
Targeted push notifications to re-engage users, send transaction alerts, and deliver time-sensitive updates — without SMS costs.
User management & auth
Secure login via phone number OTP (no email required), role-based access, and multi-tenant architecture for enterprise apps.
Analytics & crash reporting
Built-in user analytics and crash reporting so you can see how the app is being used and fix issues before users complain.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to build a mobile app?
A straightforward app (information + contact) takes 6–10 weeks. An app with user accounts, mobile money, and back-end API takes 12–20 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline after requirements discovery.
Will you publish the app to Google Play and the App Store?
Yes. App Store and Google Play submission is included. We set up your developer accounts if you don't have them, prepare all required assets, and manage the review process.
Can the app work on USSD for users without smartphones?
Yes. Where your target users may not have smartphones, we can build a USSD interface that works on any basic phone using the MTN and Airtel USSD gateways in Uganda.
