The Snore Doctor allows users to record sleep
Identity was key here, we came up with the snore doctor. The idea was to focus on how to improve sleeping issues through diagnosis as well as identify sleeping problems. The app can be used by anyone but it will be used specifically by Vik Veer’s patients. Vik is an ENT doctor and has a private practice on Harley Street in London.

AAA showcase creators who provide real content
The biggest challenge was designing an app that a Content Creator could easily upload unique content to on the go. Allowing them to send a message me live function while at an event or backstage for example. For the user, we designed an app that had a very simple to access design. We designed a simple home screen where all media that the user has subscribed to is shown in a clean modern design. A search screen where new creators content can be found and a subscriptions screen to manage all subscriptions.

Rockerbox is an app that provides content for kids
The brief was to design an app that would be easy to navigate as a young user, has a fun design and some great features to keep the user engaged.

WiK is an app to aid staff training
The brief was to design an app that would allow staff to complete statutory training no matter where they are located. We were asked to design a game style questioning format that gave the element of fun but also fed back the results to the users so they can see what they answered well and not so well. This would highlight training areas to complete if any gaps were evident. The results can be shared through a downloadable file or also through the apps CMS system.

Deer Sleep is a rest, sleep and mediation app
Deer have long been woven into human consciousness, they are in ancient palaeolithic cave paintings. This was the initial inspiration from the client who wanted to develop an app that was striking yet calming at the same time. Each deer was chosen to be a striking and unique colour that linked to the sound. We designed an app with a unique background that was unique and instantly recognisable.

Superhero Tips is an in play football tipster App
We were asked to develop a system that allows users to receive a tip and place a bet very quickly as the market is live and odds can change quickly. The app needed to be simple to navigate, with tips received showing prominently, a clutter-free design where the tipster system is explained. The app also has a chat facility creating a community in its own right of similar-minded users.

The detox plans are all cleverly thought through based on extensive expert experience and as such has specific action points that the app ensures you perform each step at the right time and record your actions too.

The project involved brainstorming initial ideas then agreeing on a central document that we updated regularly as new ideas got thought of.

Development for Football Tips Site
“When they say they will deliver something, they do it. They meet all our budgets and timelines.”
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm an owner of a football tips company.
What challenge were you trying to address with Appy Monkey?
We have a website, and the big problem we had was most of our tips are in-play. When we post an in-play tip, we needed an instantaneous push that people could get through an app. That would eliminate SMSs, which would lower our costs and help us reach a greater market.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They've really transformed our business. They came up with the idea and designed software. We usually use Bet365, and now the tip comes through as a push notification with a link that leads to the live game and the bet. Users can be anywhere and key into the action. They built the app from scratch, based on our ideas. The collaboration is ongoing, and we hope to improve the look and feel further.
What is the team composition?
I worked directly with two people in the UK. I can see all the teams, and we have access to other contacts working on the project.
How did you come to work with Appy Monkey?
We looked at different companies and approached a few. They were honest with us, and we liked their website.
How much have you invested with them?
Our initial budget was £25,000 (approximately $31,000 USD), but we've added new pieces. With the added cost that comes with that, our total cost is closer to £30,000 (approximately $37,500 USD) overall.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together around December 2017, and the collaboration is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The number of signups is really considerable, even without a proper marketing campaign. Just through word of mouth, the transformation is massive. We wanted to offer a fourteen-day trial period, which was tricky. We've made it work, and we're one of the few tipster services that makes money.
How did Appy Monkey perform from a project management standpoint?
They were good project managers. I like that I can contact them at any time by phone or through a messaging service.
What did you find most impressive about them?
For me, having that ability to phone someone and get an honest answer is key. When they say they will deliver something, they do it. They meet all our budgets and timelines.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I genuinely think they're brilliant, and I don't have any areas of improvement for them.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Know what you want to achieve. They came up with good options based upon our initial ideas. That will speed up the process.

I’m the managing director of Decor24. We sell decorating materials 24 hours a day.
For what projects/services did your company hire Appy Monkey?
We wanted to produce an e-commerce solution to sell decorating materials including a website and a mobile app. This was a brand-new idea, and we had no internal developers, so we looked for a development partner.

Based on our concept, Appy Monkey created our branding, logo, color scheme, and strapline (a statement that summarizes the essence of a company). They then delivered a website and a mobile app. Our system remembers customers’ previous orders, so they’re more likely to make us their constant supply partner. Appy Monkey also created flyers and business cards.
What was the team composition?
We dealt directly with a project manager, Mike (Managing Director, Appy Monkey).
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Customers have left great feedback so far, which has helped us surpass our business goals these first few months. Specifically, they love our branding and the ease of use of our app and website.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
We met in person many times during the project, and we’ve continued to do so after the project ended. Mike always shows us how to better position our products from an SEO point of view.

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I’m the co-founder of a small startup that provides a dating solution to people who will be on holiday in the same place at the same time. We provide users the opportunity to make connections whilst abroad with ease via our unique technology.
For what projects/services did your company hire Appy Monkey?
As this was our first project of this kind, we required an app developer that could easily understand our business concept and help us develop ideas as we went along.
We hired them to spec out and develop our new holiday dating app concept. This included setting up a microsite, creating a database, and designing the UI/UX [user interface/user experience]. We've also taken up a service agreement with Mike [Managing Director, Appy Monkey] and the team to continue to support the platform during its launch and beyond.
What were your goals for this project?
We required an app with unique and detailed features from concepts we had come up with in our planning phase. These included an interactive messaging system, a smooth and professional UI/UX, and an effective use of geolocation features. We also wanted an app for both iOS and Android, which Appy Monkey easily accommodated.
How did you select this vendor?
My business partner had heard about Appy Monkey from a friend that had recently done an app with them. We also searched on Google and created a shortlist but after meeting with Mike and another member of his team, we were very confident that we had found a company that could swiftly deliver.
From the beginning, we had very quick responses to our queries and received a detailed quote equally fast. Out of the three companies we approached, they were by far the most enthusiastic and forthcoming with ideas on how we could improve our concept from the outset.
Describe the project in detail.
Mike and the team suggested relevant programming languages that would be most effective for our requirements. We provided examples of designs, colors, and concepts, which they developed and improved.
Appy Monkey created a detailed wireframe and mockup of the app for us to approve. They were responsible for delivering the UI/UX screen designs, a microsite, a backend user system, developing the app, and getting approval for both the Apple and Android app stores. They also went above and beyond in assisting with our marketing strategies on a consultative basis.
What was the team composition?
The team was comprised of a project manager, a UI/UX designer, a team manager, and three software development engineers. We worked closely with the project manager to give feedback during our sprint reviews and testing periods.
What outcomes or results can you share that demonstrate progress and/or success?
Appy Monkey delivered a very aesthetically pleasing, powerful application that has met our standards and beyond.
Based on the quality of communication between us and the project manager, we were able to identify potential issues quickly and efficiently which resulted in the project being delivered on time. It allowed us to demonstrate a working version of the application in order to secure more funding from various exhibitions and trade shows.
My experience with Appy Monkey so far has been absolutely fantastic. It was a big step for us to come up with an idea and act on it; Appy Monkey gave us the confidence, reassurance, and guidance necessary to deliver an awesome product. They continue to support us as we prepare to launch and we're about to enter into a maintenance agreement with them moving forward. Their continued support to us in invaluable.
How effective was the project management?
Mike was absolutely fantastic from the beginning. The entire team was just as enthusiastic as we were, which inspired some fantastic design/development concepts for the finished product. The communication was also brilliant, with regular updates in between. They also worked round the clock in order to meet deadlines.
Mike showed a real understanding of our goals from the beginning and worked as if it was his own project, which was invaluable and gave us great confidence in an industry that we're not all too familiar with. We mainly communicated over Skype and Teamwork.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
I really think that their enthusiasm and clear and effective communication during this project made it a success for us. I would never have expected a company to take so much care and interest in what it is that we're trying to achieve as a small startup.
Other companies we approached took far too long to get back to us, making it seem like we were just another project to them. While Appy Monkey did have more than one project going on, we were never made to feel as if we weren't a priority.
