Mobile App Development

Your customers buy on a phone, often on a weak connection, and they pay with mobile money. The developers at Upeo Africa Technologies build offline-first Android and iOS apps for businesses in Kenya and across Africa, with M-Pesa and Airtel Money integrated, then submit them to both stores and keep them updated.

How we help

Our developers build for the conditions your users are actually in: intermittent data, older Android handsets, and mobile money as the default way to pay. Offline-first is a decision our team makes in week one, not a patch added after the complaints start.

Design, build, store submission, and the updates afterwards stay with one team. Our developers handle review policy and release notes, so you are not learning App Store rules against a launch deadline.

A short call, a clear plan, and a quote before you commit.

What Mobile App Development covers

Take the whole thing, or start with the one piece that is costing you most right now. Either way it is the same team and the same contract.

Android & iOS Apps

One codebase, both platforms, native-grade performance. Your Android users are the majority in this market and they are not an afterthought in how we build or how we test.

Offline-First Apps

For field teams, delivery riders, and agents who lose signal constantly. The app keeps working, queues what it cannot send, and syncs cleanly when the connection returns.

Mobile Money & In-App Payments

M-Pesa, Airtel Money, and card payments inside the app, with the callbacks and reconciliation handled properly so your finance team is not matching payments by hand.

App Store Launch & Maintenance

Submission, review, and the updates afterwards. We manage store listings, screenshots, and the OS upgrades that quietly break apps nobody is maintaining.

How Upeo Africa Technologies delivers Mobile App Development

  1. Step

    Scope and platform plan

    What the app must do, which devices matter, and where offline behaviour is non-negotiable. Decided before design, because it shapes everything after.

  2. Step

    Design and prototype

    Clickable screens you can hand to a real user before we build, which is the cheapest possible moment to change your mind.

  3. Step

    Build and device testing

    Built once for both platforms, then tested on the mid-range Android handsets your customers actually own, not just on a simulator.

  4. Step

    Store submission

    We handle developer accounts, listings, screenshots, privacy declarations, and the review process that catches most first-time launches out.

  5. Step

    Updates and monitoring

    Crash reporting, usage analytics, and the OS-upgrade releases that quietly break apps nobody is maintaining.

Questions, answered

The things clients ask us before they commit. If yours is not here, ask it directly and we will answer it straight.

Do we need separate apps for Android and iOS?
No. We build from a single codebase that ships to both stores, which keeps your build cost and your ongoing maintenance far lower than commissioning two native apps. Where a feature genuinely needs platform-specific code, we write it.
Can the app work without internet?
Yes, and for most businesses here it should. We design offline-first where it matters, so the app keeps working on a weak connection and syncs when signal returns rather than showing an error and losing the work.
Who handles publishing to Google Play and the App Store?
We do. That includes developer account setup, store listings, screenshots, privacy declarations, and the review process itself, which is where most first-time launches lose a week they had not planned for.

Custom Web Applications

Spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools stop fitting once the work outgrows them. Our developers build the web platform around the way your team actually works, so people stop keeping a second system on the side.

Websites & Portals

A slow website loses the visitor who never calls. Our developers and designers build search-ready sites that load on mobile data and give your own team a way to update them.

UI/UX & Product Design

If a person cannot finish the task in the first minute, they leave. Our designers test the interface with real users before our developers write the build, so more people complete what they came to do.
