Mobile App Design

Mobile apps Nigerians will actually open twice

Nigeria is a mobile-first country. Most of your users will meet your brand through a phone — usually mid-range Android, often on Wi-Fi at home and 3G everywhere else. Designing well for that user is a discipline, and it's one we've been practising since 2013.

AmtelWeb designs and builds native-quality mobile apps for iOS and Android using React Native (Expo) — one codebase, two platforms, faster delivery and easier maintenance than going fully native.

What we deliver

• Research-led design. We don't start with screens. We start with the behaviour we want to enable — registration, transfer, booking, learning, ordering — and design backwards from the moment of value.
• A real design system. Not a bag of screens. Components, tokens, motion specs, and accessibility rules that scale with you.
• Polished, modern interfaces. Clean typography, considered spacing, micro-interactions that feel intentional. Apps that look like they were built by a team that cares.
• Production-ready code. TypeScript, tested, with CI/CD to TestFlight and Play Console. Versioning, release notes, and crash reporting from day one.

Built for Nigerian network realities

• Offline-first patterns so users can still browse, draft, and act when the network drops.
• Aggressive image and asset optimisation to keep installs small and updates fast.
• Graceful failure states for every API call — no blank screens, no silent timeouts.
• Local payment-ready with Paystack and Flutterwave SDKs pre-integrated where needed.

Use cases we excel at

FinTech wallets and neo-banking apps, education and learning apps, logistics and dispatch apps, customer-loyalty apps, marketplace and booking apps, internal field-ops tools, and SaaS companion apps.

Process

1. Discovery and research (week 1–2) — interviews, competitive analysis, persona mapping.
2. UX design (week 2–4) — flows and prototypes tested with real users.
3. Visual design and design system (week 4–6) — production-ready Figma library.
4. Build (week 6–14) — weekly TestFlight / Play Internal builds.
5. Submission and launch (week 14–16) — store assets, review handling, go-live.
