Real apps, built for real businesses — including our own
Alfa-Fix — Native Android App, India
Alfa-Fix is our own nationwide device-repair business. Its staff app is a real native Android build — installed directly on technicians' and counter staff's phones — with a background service that watches for new repair jobs and alerts staff with a sound the moment one comes in, even if the app isn't open. Built from the same codebase as the web app, so both stay in sync automatically.
- Native Android build with a background job-watching service
- Sound alert on new jobs, even when the app is in the background
- One shared codebase — Android app and web app stay in sync
Installed directly on staff devices today; a Play Store listing is next.
Alfa POS UAE — Supermarket Checkout App
An installable web app built for the checkout counter — runs on any tablet or PC at the till, no app-store install needed, and works through a signal drop without losing a sale. Live today at Bustan Alzaytoon Supermarket, Dubai. The same codebase also ships as a desktop build for stores that prefer it.
- Installable checkout app — any tablet or PC, no app store needed
- 5% UAE VAT, bilingual Arabic/English tax invoices built in
- Live in production at a real supermarket in Dubai
Alfa Trade — Wholesale Distribution Suite, Madhya Pradesh
A wholesale agarbatti & pooja-products distributor running six delivery vans out of six godowns. We built two connected apps on one backend: an office web app for billing, receivables and stock, and a separate installable app for salesmen on the road — in Hindi, working with no signal at all, syncing every sale, collection and stock update the moment a van is back in range.
- Office web app — billing, receivables, van stock, live at trade.alfadecode.com
- Separate installable salesman app, in Hindi, for staff on the road
- Fully offline — bills, collections and stock queue locally and sync automatically
The salesman's app, on his own phone — punch in, bill a van sale, collect a payment, close the day. No signal needed until it's time to sync.
From a WhatsApp message to installed on real phones
Tell us what the app needs to do
A short call — who uses it, what they need to get done, and whether it has to work offline.
We scope the build
PWA, native, or both — we recommend the right shape for your budget and use case, then give you a clear written quote.
We build in stages
You see working versions on a real phone as we go, not just a demo at the very end.
Launch & handover
Installed for your team, published to the app stores if needed, and handed over — yours, no lock-in.
We use what we build
Alfa-Fix, Alfa POS and Alfa Trade below aren't demos — they're real products we run every day, built by the same team that would build yours.
A fixed starting price
AED 3,500 (₹65,000 in India) to start, and a clear written quote before anything custom is added. No hourly meter, no surprises.
You own everything
The code and, where we publish them, the app-store listings are yours, handed over in full. No lock-in — ever.
App development — your questions
How much does an app cost?
App builds start at AED 3,500 in the UAE (₹65,000 in India) for a custom installable web app (PWA) covering one core workflow. A native Android or iOS build, an offline-first sync engine, or connecting the app to your existing Alfa Decode data are quoted separately, based on what you actually need — we give you a clear written quote after a short scoping call.
What's the difference between a PWA and a native app?
A PWA (installable web app) is one build that installs from a browser on both Android and iPhone, with no app-store review — it is the fastest, most affordable way to get a real app icon on your customers' phones. A native app is a separate Play Store / App Store build with deeper access to the phone (background services, native push, camera, GPS) — worth it once you need those. We often build both from one shared codebase, as we did for Alfa-Fix below.
Can the app work with no internet signal?
Yes, as an add-on. Our offline-first sync engine lets staff keep working — taking orders, logging sales, recording jobs — with zero signal, queuing everything locally and syncing automatically the moment they reconnect. Alfa Trade's salesman app, below, runs exactly this way for vans on the road in rural Madhya Pradesh.
How long does it take to build?
A focused first version is usually a matter of weeks, not months, depending on the features and how quickly we get feedback from you. We build in stages so you see real progress on your own phone throughout, not just a demo at the end.
Do I own the app afterwards?
Yes, completely — the code and, where we publish to the app stores, the store listings themselves are yours, under your own developer accounts. No lock-in.
Can I see real, working examples?
Yes — three, below, all live products we've built and run ourselves: Alfa-Fix, a native Android repair-tracking app; Alfa POS UAE, an installable supermarket checkout app; and Alfa Trade, a wholesale distribution suite with a back-office web app and a Hindi salesman app that works with no signal.
