We came to Moonward after being lied to, manipulated and cheated by two previous developers. We were told by these developers to pay them upfront, and we’d have our app. We struggled to get updates, we barely got anything delivered and ended up after 3 years with nothing usable. We’ve now been working with Moonward for over 6 months. We have weekly meetings, a client portal, ultimate transparency and the most enjoyable working experience with the likes of Bec, Liv and Andrew.This is the most transparent development agency, that does exactly what they say they are going to do. They don’t make excuses, they just get the work done. We finally met the team last Friday and it was like catching up with friends. They didn’t mind going down super long tangents when my curiosity struck and I wanted to learn about particular technology or insights that they had. I imagine it felt like talking to a child to them, but they were patient and very accomodating. Once the app is live we plan on being a client showcase/case study to highlight the quality of work Moonward has put together.If I had more time and unlimited typing speed I’d write many more paragraphs. Moonward are more than welcome to share my information with clients and I will happily give a lengthier recommendation over the phone. These guys have truly saved our idea and business, which we thought was an entirely lost cause until we met them.

I Can Read has had the privilege of collaborating with Moonward, and I must say, the experience so far has been truly outstanding. Moonward's design and client interaction are exceptional. The team's commitment to delivering exceptional results is apparent in every stage of the process. They have a remarkable ability to create designs that consistently surpass expectations. Their ability to seamlessly combine creativity and practicality is truly remarkable, resulting in solutions that are not only visually stunning but also highly functional. Tricia, in particular, has truly excelled. Her design skills are exceptional. The way she executed our vision was truly remarkable, showcasing her exceptional finesse and meticulous attention to detail. Every design she created exuded a seamless combination of innovation and elegance. The way she effortlessly grasped and transformed our requirements into extraordinary designs was truly enchanting. What has made this experience truly exceptional was the seamless and delightful collaboration from all Moonward members, which we have had the privilege to work with. The communication has been clear, the responsiveness has been impressive, and every aspect of the project has been carefully aligned with our goals. The entire process has been made smooth and stress-free thanks to every team members positive attitude and professionalism.

In October 2023 we embarked on an ambitious program with Moonward to completely revamp the Memble App with new branding, user experience and additional features. The Moonward team did an expert job scoping out and managing this large and complex project. Tricia designed out a fantastic looking Memble prototype, with considered UX and UI best practices as well as carrying out thoughtful research with her team to ensure what was being designed was not overly complex, timely or expensive to develop and would not only function as planned, but useful to the user. During this design phase, Tricia worked diligently and communicated regular and speedy updates taking on feedback all the way to completion of a well-designed App prototype - ready for development. Really enjoyed the way Tricia went about the whole design process. Now the development phase is underway, their dev team have been terrific, methodically coding out the designs and connecting all the pieces. So far, I’m super happy how the app is coming together and the way it is looking and functioning. I can’t wait to see it fully completed. I was skeptical at first on designing out the prototype in such a way even for smaller features, but Andrew at Moonward convinced me it was the way to go and I’m glad. I’ve had experience with other App development firms but found Moonward’s approach to App development to be very good with a high degree of customer focus and engagement and a really great team that work hard to produce excellent apps.

As a recent customer, Moonward provided a premium website development experience for my new business, EvolveResolve.Importantly, they spent the time to get the know the business- the target market, and the appropriate brand voice. Stemming from this knowledge, the design of my logo and the optics of the site was spot on- my brief was a polished, yet still fresh and different website. This was very much achieved! The Moonward point of difference is deep in-house expertise - unique to a market where outsourcing off shore is the norm.I would highly recommend the Moonward team !

Working with the Moonward team, in particular Tricia and Lachy, on the development and build of a sleek, interactive and cleverly automated performance-based platform for our business, now allows us the opportunity to offer an incredibly valuable solution for our clients in terms of measuring real change across their executive teams and businesses as a whole. Together, their expertise and incredible ability to decipher our wants and needs for such a platform have delivered a truly amazing system, that we look forward to sharing with our clients as part of their performance journeys. The platform looks good, is easy to navigate and delivers a seamless experience for our clients, providing an incredibly valuable tool for us to offer at scale whilst maintaining significant touch-points, customisation, and confidentiality. Thanks guys, we could not recommend you more and look forward to continuing to work with you.

We have worked with Moonward over the past couple of years, having both Lachy and more recently Liv help us with the design aspects of our app. Both of them have showed the same energy and enthusiasm towards our app that we do, which we really appreciated! Getting to meet the team in person is something we really enjoy doing. While the app space has taken us on many twists and turns, Moonward has always been a team of high quality people lead by Andrew and Pia, who have showed great care and intent to help bring our vision to life. George in particular has been a steady support for us, and having him and Joao with us the whole way through, is something we really value. Having Riley swing over as our project manager of late has also brought in a fresh lens and insight which we have appreciated. Looking forward to the months ahead!

Over the last few years, we have been working with Moonward to bring our vision to life and create our first tech product. Moonward’s innovative design team consistently brings fresh ideas and creative solutions to the table. Their collaborative in-house approach ensures that every aspect of the project is handled with care, with all team members working seamlessly together. I’ve particularly appreciated their prompt communication and quick fixes whenever challenges arise, making the entire process smoother and more efficient. Both Lachy and more recently Liv have been instrumental in the design aspects of our app, bringing enthusiasm and energy that have always matched ours, which has been incredibly valuable throughout this journey. The app space has certainly brought its share of twists and turns, but the team at Moonward has consistently demonstrated high-quality work, care, and intent to bring our vision to life. We are very grateful and appreciative to have such a great team working alongside us to provide a high-quality, evolving product to our customers

So where do I start I'm in the early stages of app development and have no experience within the industry. Having only an idea and no knowledge on where to start they helped me put everything out on paper I was seeing my overloaded thoughts finally I front of my eye. With missing pieces all connected they challenged my mind and helped me unleash things I thought were impossible. my first meeting with the moonward team was two weeks ago and can't wait to see where our journey takes us.

Have had the pleasure of working with Moonward on multiple projects and the team never fails to deliver. Being able to physically head into the Moonward HQ and talk to the design team, development team and delivery team has been extremely helpful. All our ideas, from all our projects, have been executed to an extremely high standard, and the process from start to finish is seamless. The team are always contactable, and always keep us up to date with where our apps are at with design and development. Highly recommend Moonward to anyone looking for an app development company!!

We first approached Moonward in June 2022 with a concept for an app, and they immediately impressed us by taking our idea from blueprint to reality. They developed a high-quality app for both iOS and Android, and also built a comprehensive backend web platform that allows us to easily manage updates and push content to the app. Now, 18 months since the app's launch, we’ve seen fantastic success. The app has been incredibly reliable, with zero issues, and their ongoing support has been top-notch. I highly recommend Moonward for anyone looking for expert, dependable app development.

Highly recommended. Coming from a completely different industry, we had an idea of what we were trying to create, but no idea how to do it. Moonward was able to bring that to life and guide us through the process. We have loved their professionalism and hospitality, as we have always been treated to a 5 star service when visiting the office with our weekly or fortnightly meetings. From a design perspective, Tricia has been nothing but outstanding, she is incredibly talented and we are very lucky to have her deliver such an amazing product. Anson, our project manager is a man on a mission, always doing his best to deliver things on time and being extremely transparent about the process, something we have valued very high. Andrew and Pia, thank you for being extremely understanding, always working in with us and our vision. We look forward to a very long working relationship!

I've really loved working with Moonward for the past few years, including building what is now our third app with them! I'm someone who is very much an "in-person" person - as in I like to be able to meet with people face to face over video calls etc and that's why I love working with Moonward because they're based in Brisbane CBD. I'm able to go and physically meet with the people who are building my app. This for me is an absolute must because I can feel confident things aren't missed in translation. I also appreciate that the team of developers aren't offshore which makes me feel that there is a greater ability for the owners to have quality control. Very happy to be working with Moonward and look forward to a long relationship together!

Moonward Apps are a pleasure to work with. They have displayed skills in all areas of the tech field; going above and beyond app development. They provide services in branding, website development, graphic design, and marketing. We honestly could not have developed Suggesterfy with a better team! Each and every member of the team has contributed the most valuable advice, and we consider the guys and girls at Moonward more than just our chosen app development company, but an extension of the Suggesterfy Family. Their team is responsive and takes the time to understand your project needs, they add constructive feedback when needed and have been super flexible in pivoting the changing needs of our app when situations have arisen. I highly recommend Moonward Apps for your next project, i wouldn’t want to work with any other group!
