Exploding Phone was hired by Selco Builders Warehouse, a building materials supplier, to develop a mobile app to facilitate their customers' shopping experience. The project involved a consultative phase to determine the feasibility and options for the app, leading to the development of several features to make in-store and online shopping easier. The app was built in native Android and iOS, and included features such as a virtual trading card, a store locator, and a secure auto-login feature. The project, which ran from January 2020 to April 2022, was deemed a success, with the client investing between $50,000 and $100,000 in the venture.

Ultralogic Solutions Limited, a business systems provider, engaged Exploding Phone to develop a custom mobile app for one of their clients in the waste management sector. The app was designed to digitize the client's paper-based invoicing and ticketing system, allowing drivers to collect signatures and live data on the go. The app was developed from scratch for Android devices using Java and integrated with the client's existing system via an API. The project, which ran from September 2020 to December 2021, was completed successfully, with the client investing approximately $43,000, including ongoing support fees.

Literacy Tree, an EdTech platform, hired Exploding Phone to develop an easy-to-use app for their members. The app was designed to provide access to resources, capture children's outcomes, assess children, and annotate planning resources. It was also required to integrate seamlessly with the website and be available for free download across iOS and Android devices. The project deliverables included an iPad-specific version of the app, integration with device camera and photo library, and compliance with UK Data Protection legislation (GDPR). Exploding Phone's work was highly valued by the client, who chose them for their competitive pricing, cultural fit, and alignment with company values.
