Exceeded our expectations on quality and communication

Faisal Al Harbi / Director of IT | Sep 18, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building.

We are already seeing better numbers than before the project. I would recommend Apen Apps to anyone looking for a dependable Mobile App Development partner.

Project summary

Our company worked with Apen Apps to build iOS and Android apps for our customers, including booking, payments and push notifications. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. The engagement ran for about 5 months.

Great team to work with — professional, responsive and reliable

Zoe Kelly / Co-Founder | Aug 31, 2026

Apen Apps did an excellent job for us. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since. I would recommend Apen Apps to anyone looking for a dependable AI & Machine Learning partner.

Project summary

We partnered with Apen Apps to add an AI chatbot to our support site that answers questions from our help docs. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. Overall it was a 7-month engagement.
