Why choose Pocketworks?

Our clients see mobile apps as key revenue generators in their business. They are busy people, and need a long-term partner that can help them deliver end-to-end products without the stressful management overhead.

We design for growth from day one

The average app loses 73% of new users within the first 3 days. Our focus on growth helps your app perform better. More downloads, more paying customers, and higher customer lifetime value.

We put your customers first with user centered design

99% of apps fail, usually becuase they don't resonate with customers or they run out of budget. We help you mitigate these risks by learning from your audience and letting customer insight guide your app design.

You'll have one supplier to build your entire platform

App development is pretty straight forward. What's hard is desiging an integrated experience that truly engages people and keeps them coming back. To do this, our team offers:

  • Mobile strategy and planning
  • Paid and organic user acquisition
  • User research to validate ideas
  • Conversion optimisation
  • iOS, Android, and cross-platform Flutter Development
  • Backend, cloud, data and API development
  • AI, GenAI and data-driven solutions
  • Automated and manual app testing
  • Analytics, data cleaning and dashboards

You can sleep at night knowing you have a dependable, long-term partner

We still work with our first client from back in 2012, and have helped them grow from zero to three million app customers. Some of our clients are global groups with over £1bn revenue. We've been stable and profitable for years.
