HOW IT WORKS Start you church communication with the best app developers in the south. 6 Stages of Mobile App Design Every mobile app has to make it through a series of steps on the way to the final product. The “software development life cycle” is the same for every mobile application, regardless of the application’s category or target user: planning, analysis, design, development, implementation, and testing Planning Planning: Without the perfect plan, calculating the strengths and weaknesses of the project, development of software is meaningless. Planning kicks off a project flawlessly and affects its progress positively. Analysis This step is about analyzing the performance of the software at various stages and making notes on additional requirements. Analysis is very important to proceed further to the next step. Design Design: Once the analysis is complete, the step of designing takes over, which is basically building the architecture of the project. This step helps remove possible flaws by setting a standard and attempting to stick to it.
Development Development & Implementation: The actual task of developing the software starts here with data recording going on in the background. Implementation Once the software is developed, the stage of implementation comes in where the product goes through a pilot study to see if it’s functioning properly. Testing The testing stage assesses the software for errors and documents bugs if there are any

Enhancing Communication for Churches & Nonprofits A great way for church members to stay connected and get information quickly from the palm of their hands. We Help Businesses and Nonprofits come into the mobile space
Your app is developed by a team of expert programmers. You will have 24/7 access to edit, send push- messages and view mobile app analytics. At a reasonable cost. Church App Problem Many organizations do not have a Mobile Platform. Researches state that 7 out 10 people have a mobile phone today but most information is delivered and marketed via a static website platform. Staying Connected Most people use Social Media to find people and stay intouch. However, your personal information is at risk or sold. Privacy Concerns No mobile secure platform where all members can communicate about important issues in a private setting.
Mobile App Cost Custom mobile app development costs tens of thousands of dollars and most organizations can not afford the overhead. Data Management No easy way to manage user’s data, private communications or documents all in one secure location.
