Mobile App Development
Mobile business applications
Staff and field apps for a company: device fleets, offline capture and the systems they feed.
What it is
Internal mobile software for people who are not at a desk — inspection, delivery, service, warehouse and sales-visit apps — deployed across a company's devices and wired into the systems that already own the record.
Why businesses need it
Field work captured on paper or in a personal app arrives late, incomplete and unsearchable. A company app closes that gap and gives operations the same record the office sees, at the moment it happens.
What MIWEBX delivers
- Field data capture: forms, photographs, signatures, scans and geotagged records
- Offline-first operation on the device, syncing when the connection returns
- Deployment across a managed device fleet rather than one public store link
- Role, site and territory scoping so staff see only their own work
- Integration with the ERP, CRM, inventory or finance system that owns the record
- Supervisor views for the queue, the exceptions and what has not been submitted
Core features
- Queued writes with retry, so a job taken underground or behind a site wall is not lost
- Attachment and photograph upload that survives interruption and resumes
- Barcode and QR scanning, with images compressed before they leave the device
- Session expiry, device binding and revocation when a handset leaves the company
- Reference data refreshed onto the device, so offline dropdowns hold current values
- Audit trail on every change: who, when, which device
Technical capabilities
- Local database on the device with a schema and a versioned migration path
- Sync protocol with idempotent writes, stated conflict rules and a reconciliation log
- Device enrolment and configuration profiles distributed through the management system the company uses
- Role-based access enforced on the server rather than hidden behind a client control
- Push addressed to a device group by role, site or shift for dispatch and changeover
- Integration endpoints into existing systems with retry and dead-letter handling
- Usage and error reporting segmented per team, so a rollout problem is identifiable
How we build it
- Shadow the job being digitised: the site, the signal, the gloves, the form it runs on today.
- Agree which system owns the record of truth and which fields each side may write.
- Build the capture flow and the offline model before any reporting dashboard.
- Pilot with one team on company devices, with the paper process still available.
- Fix what the pilot exposes, then enrol the rest of the fleet through the management system.
- Hand administration, role configuration and the integration runbook to your IT owner.
Technology stack
- React Native
- Expo
- TypeScript
- Node.js
- PostgreSQL
- SQLite
- REST APIs
- Push notifications (APNs / FCM)
What you receive
- The app distributed to your devices through accounts and tooling you own
- Server-side API and integration code with the field mapping documented
- Role, territory and device configuration explained to your IT team
- Offline and sync behaviour documented, including what happens on a conflict
- Pilot findings from the first team and the fixes made as a result
Business benefits
- The work is recorded once — the field entry is the system record
- Supervisors see the day as it is completed rather than the following week
- Data arrives in the shape the existing systems already expect
- Leavers and lost handsets can be cut off without visiting each device
