Apps make the most sense when they solve a specific problem, and Kings Hill has plenty of businesses with problems worth solving. A clinic might want patients to book and manage appointments. A firm on the business park might want staff in the field to log jobs. A club or community group might want members to see fixtures and news in one place.
We plan and build apps for iOS, Android and the web, starting with what the app needs to do rather than what’s fashionable. We like to plan face to face, at our office or yours, and you’ll try test builds on your own phone as the app takes shape. Our services include:
App projects involve a lot of testing and small decisions, so we meet often. Planning sessions happen in person, at our Maidstone office or at your premises in Kings Hill, a short drive away. Prototypes and test builds go onto your phone so you can try them in real situations, and we sit down together to go through feedback at each stage. If your team is spread out, a video call can stand in for a meeting, but most clients find it quicker to get round a table.
1. Plan
We define the users, the core features and the platforms, and agree a phased roadmap.
2. Design
We map the journeys and design the screens, then walk you through them as clickable prototypes.
3. Build
We develop the app in stages, putting test builds on your phone so you can try features as they arrive.
4. Test and launch
We test on real devices, handle app store submission and prepare for launch.
5. Support
We monitor the app, release updates and add features as your needs grow.
We build apps for organisations across Kent and the UK, not only in Kings Hill. Call us on 01622 470474 or get a free quote.
App development in Kings Hill: frequently asked questions
Do we need a native app or would a web app do?
It depends on what users need to do. A progressive web app is often enough for bookings or information, while features like offline use or deep phone integration may need a native app. We'll recommend the simplest option that works.
Can the app connect to our existing systems?
Usually, yes. We can connect to booking tools, CRMs and databases through their APIs, and we'll check what's possible during planning.
Will we need to come to meetings in Maidstone?
You're welcome at our office, just down the road, but we're just as happy to come to you at Kings Hill. A video call works too if that's easier.
Can you design the app to match our brand?
Yes. The app will follow your existing identity, and if you don't have one yet, our branding team can create it.
What happens after launch?
We offer ongoing support covering fixes, operating system updates and new features, so the app keeps working as phones and needs change.
