What You Get
Technologies We Use
Real results for real businesses
SwiftDeliver
The Challenge
Paper-based delivery tracking causing lost packages, no real-time visibility, and poor customer experience across Lagos.
Our Solution
Built a React Native app with offline-first architecture, real-time GPS tracking, push notifications, and driver performance analytics.
HealthFirst
The Challenge
Patients had no way to book appointments, access records, or communicate with doctors remotely.
Our Solution
Developed a telemedicine app with video consultations, appointment scheduling, e-prescriptions, and secure health record access.
“Our delivery tracking app built by Tanta handles 10,000+ daily orders across Lagos. It works even in areas with poor network coverage — that was a game-changer for our drivers and customers.”
Frequently asked questions
Native or cross-platform — which should I choose?
For most businesses, cross-platform (React Native/Flutter) delivers 90% of native performance at 40% lower cost. We recommend native only when you need hardware-specific features (AR, heavy animations) or have platform-specific requirements.
How much does a mobile app cost?
Simple apps start at ₦2M, mid-complexity apps at ₦5M, and enterprise apps at ₦10M+. We provide detailed quotes after a free discovery session.
Do you handle App Store submission?
Yes. We manage the entire submission process for both Apple App Store and Google Play Store, including listing optimization, screenshots, and compliance review.
What about app updates and maintenance?
We offer monthly maintenance packages that include OS compatibility updates, bug fixes, performance monitoring, and feature enhancements.
Can you integrate with our existing backend?
Absolutely. We build mobile apps as a frontend layer that connects to any backend — your existing REST API, GraphQL endpoint, or third-party services.
