Mobile App Development in Kenya

Mkufunzi builds Android and iOS mobile apps for Kenyan businesses — fleet tracking, field force, e-commerce, learning, healthcare, SACCO, and custom workflows. Flutter and React Native for cost-efficient cross-platform; native Kotlin/Swift when needed. M-PESA and eTIMS integrations are part of every commerce build.

App categories we ship regularly

  • Field force & sales rep apps — GPS, route tracking, order capture, offline mode.
  • Delivery and logistics apps — driver, customer, and dispatch portals.
  • School & parent portal apps — fees, attendance, performance, announcements.
  • Healthcare & pharmacy apps — appointments, telemedicine, prescription tracking.
  • SACCO & microfinance apps — savings, loans, statements, M-PESA disbursements.
  • E-commerce mobile apps — catalogue, cart, M-PESA, push notifications.

Our process

  1. Discovery & scoping — 1-2 weeks of workshops, prototypes, and a written spec.
  2. Design — UI/UX in Figma, you approve before code.
  3. Sprints — 2-week development cycles with demos at the end of each.
  4. Beta & QA — internal testing followed by Google Play / TestFlight beta.
  5. Launch & iterate — store publishing, post-launch analytics, ongoing iteration.

FAQ

Do you build native or cross-platform mobile apps?

Both. We use Flutter and React Native for cross-platform (iOS + Android from one codebase) and native Kotlin/Swift when performance or platform features demand it.

How much does a mobile app cost in Kenya?

MVP apps from KES 350,000; mid-complexity apps KES 800,000-2,000,000; enterprise apps from KES 2,500,000. Pricing depends on backend complexity, integrations, and platform count.

Do you publish to Google Play and Apple App Store?

Yes. We manage the entire publishing process including developer accounts (KES 12,500 for Apple, KES 3,250 one-off for Google), screenshots, store listings, and review responses.

Can the app integrate with M-PESA?

Yes. Daraja API STK Push, C2B, B2C, and Lipa Na M-PESA Online are standard integrations.

Do you provide post-launch maintenance?

Yes. Monthly retainers from KES 25,000 cover bug fixes, OS-version updates, store submissions, and minor feature releases.
