Who we are
A Kent studio where you work with the person building your app.
Appro Digital is a small, founder-led studio based at Manston Business Park in Ramsgate. When you choose us for app development in Kent, you work directly with Max, the founder, who designs and builds your app himself. No account managers, no hand-offs.
We have completed 15+ app and platform builds for iPhone and Android. Good app design in Kent starts with your customers, so every project begins with key screens designed in your brand.

Process & timeline
From first call to App Store.
- Step 1DiscoverA free call, in person or online, about your idea and what version one needs. We agree a fixed scope and price.
- Step 2DesignKey screens designed in your brand, so you see your app before the build starts.
- Step 3Build & testRegular test builds on your own phone, so you see progress as it happens.
- Step 4LaunchWe launch on the App Store and Google Play, hand over the code and include a 30-day warranty.
Larger platforms take longer and are often shipped in phases so the core app launches first. App store review times vary, so we plan launch dates with you rather than promise a fixed day.
