Perth app developers for businesses that need faster field work, better customer self-service and fewer manual handoffs. We build apps around the way your team and customers actually move.
Mobile app development Perth businesses can own outright: iPhone and Android apps, customer apps, field tools and progressive web apps with fixed pricing, direct access to senior app developers and a clear rollout plan.
Perth SMBs have picked HELLO PEOPLE for app development for 18+ years. Every project runs through the founder, from the scoping call to App Store launch. No sales handoff, no offshore team, no surprises.
Week 0
Fifteen minutes with the person who will build your app. In-person in Perth if that suits. Fixed-price quote inside 48 hours.
Weeks 1-N
One founder, one codebase. Working app on your phone every two weeks, not a big reveal at the end. Field-tested with real users before store submission.
Launch
App Store and Google Play submission handled. Team training on the day. Thirty days of post-launch support included, plan optional after that.
Five categories of custom apps, one Perth team building all of them. Each category has been delivered for real Perth businesses and is available as a fixed-price scope.
Job management, field service, inventory tracking, scheduling, approvals: the operational apps your Perth business needs but cannot find off the shelf.
Built around your actual workflow. Custom fields, custom rules, custom dashboards. Your team uses it from day one because it matches how they already work.
Replaces the spreadsheets, shared drives and disconnected tools your team has been cobbling together.
Booking apps, loyalty programmes, self-service portals, marketplace apps: anything that puts your Perth business directly on your customer's phone.
Push notifications bring people back. A well-built app becomes a daily touchpoint instead of a website they visit once and forget.
App Store and Google Play distribution handled. We manage the entire submission and approval process.
Your field workers, delivery drivers, technicians and sales reps need to capture data where the work happens, not back at the office.
Offline-capable apps that sync when connectivity returns. Photo capture, GPS tracking, digital forms, signature collection, barcode scanning.
Particularly popular with Perth trades, mining services, and logistics companies where reliable internet is not guaranteed.
Not every project needs a native app. Progressive web apps run in the browser, work on any device, and skip the App Store entirely.
Staff portals, customer dashboards, reporting tools, booking systems: anything that needs to work across desktop and mobile without app store overhead.
Lower build cost, faster deployment, and zero approval delays. The right choice when your users do not need offline access or native device features.
Your app needs a backend. We build the server-side systems, APIs and database architecture that power your application.
Integration with Xero, MYOB, Salesforce, HubSpot, Stripe, Square, Medicare, ServiceM8, simPRO and dozens of other platforms Perth businesses rely on.
Secure, scalable, properly documented. Built so your app performs well under load and your data stays protected.
No hourly billing that spirals, no vague estimates. Here is how fixed-price Perth app development actually works, from first call to signed scope.
Tell us what problem the app is trying to solve. We give you an honest answer on whether an app is the right approach, roughly what it would involve, and what alternatives exist. In-person in Perth if that suits.
After the free consultation and a proper discovery phase, you get a fixed price for the entire Perth app development project. No hourly billing that spirals. You know exactly what it costs before we write a line of code.
Projects are phased into working releases every fortnight. You see real features early, give feedback, and pay in milestones. App Store and Google Play submissions handled end-to-end.
Why HELLO PEOPLE
Building an app is a big call. Here is how HELLO PEOPLE compares to the other realistic paths for a Perth business.
| Concern | HELLO PEOPLE | App builder platform | Freelance developer | Offshore app agency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to your Perth workflow | Built to how your team actually works | 80% fit, work around the 20% | Depends on the freelancer | Generic build, drifts from spec |
| Timeline to first release | Fortnightly demos, real features early | Live today, wrong 20% forever | Timeline stretches, personal projects | Timeline slips, disputed scope |
| iOS + Android from one codebase | React Native / Flutter, ~60% of cost | Fine, one platform at a time | Depends on the freelancer | Depends on the shop |
| App Store and Play submission | Handled end-to-end | You do it | You do it | Sometimes |
| Ongoing cost | One-off + optional support plan | Per seat, per month, forever | Hourly + scope creep | Hourly + scope creep |
| Direct access to the builder | Email Kasun, get Kasun | Support ticket queue | Depends on the person | Time-zone gap |
| Code and design ownership | You own the code, designs, everything | Vendor owns everything | Often disputed at handover | Often disputed at handover |
We built an end-to-end job management system for a Perth electrical contractor: quoting, scheduling, field capture and Xero invoicing all in one app.
Read the full case studyWe needed an app that worked offline on mine sites and synced back to the office when the crew got into range. HELLO PEOPLE built exactly that, and it integrated with our Xero and job management systems.
Faster field work, better customer touchpoints, connected systems, real code ownership. Here is what a custom app delivers for a Perth SMB, once it is built and running.
We are based in Perth. That means same timezone, same business hours, and the option to sit in the same room when a whiteboard session or demo makes more sense than another video call.
Most Perth clients start with a face-to-face discovery session. It cuts weeks off the back-and-forth that remote-only teams struggle with.
We build cross-platform apps using React Native and Flutter. Your app runs natively on both iOS and Android from a single codebase, which means faster delivery and lower ongoing maintenance costs.
You still get App Store and Google Play distribution, push notifications, camera, GPS and offline capability, without paying for two separate builds.
Xero, MYOB, Salesforce, ServiceM8, Tradify, Shopify, Square: whatever your Perth business already runs on. Your new app integrates with all of them through proper API connections.
Data entered in the app shows up in your accounting, CRM and job management systems instantly. No CSV exports. No double handling.
Start with the core features your business needs right now. As you grow (more users, more locations, more complexity) the app grows with you. No rip-and-replace later.
Cloud-hosted infrastructure handles ten users or ten thousand without re-architecture. Built to last, not just to launch.
You own everything we build. The source code, the designs, the database, the infrastructure. No lock-in, no licensing fees, no dependency on us to keep things running.
Want to take it to another developer later? You can. But most Perth clients stay because we already know the system inside out.
Every app project is different, but the delivery structure stays the same. You always know what sprint you are in, what is being demoed next, and what still has to happen before submission.
We start with a free discovery session (in person in Perth if that suits) and provide a fixed-price quote before any work begins. Simple single-platform apps sit at the lower end. Complex multi-platform apps with offline capability, third-party integrations and admin portals are larger. No hourly billing that spirals - you know the full cost upfront.
Typical timelines range from 8 to 20 weeks depending on scope. A simple single-platform app with a handful of screens can be done in 8-10 weeks. A full cross-platform app with backend, integrations and admin portal is closer to 16-20 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline during scoping, not an optimistic guess to win the job.
For most Perth business apps, cross-platform (React Native or Flutter) is the right choice. You get one codebase running on both iOS and Android at roughly 60-70% of the cost of building two native apps. Native development makes sense when you need maximum performance (gaming, AR, heavy animation) or deep integration with platform-specific hardware.
If your users need offline access, push notifications, camera, GPS or native device features, you need a mobile app. If they use it at a desk, on any device, and always have internet, a progressive web app is cheaper and faster to build. We help you make this decision during discovery so you do not overbuild.
Yes. We regularly integrate with Xero, MYOB, Salesforce, HubSpot, Stripe, Square, ServiceM8, simPRO, Tradify, Shopify, WooCommerce, Medicare and dozens of other platforms. If the system has an API, we can connect to it.
You do. The source code, the designs, the database, the hosting configuration: everything. No lock-in, no licensing fees, no proprietary frameworks. If you ever want to move to another developer, you can take everything with you.
Yes. Most Perth clients stay on a support arrangement for bug fixes, OS updates, feature additions and general maintenance. App stores regularly update their requirements and your app needs to keep up. We handle all of that.
Absolutely. We are based in Perth and most projects kick off with a face-to-face discovery session. We find it cuts weeks off the back-and-forth that remote-only engagements struggle with.
