School Apps

BRING YOUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY TOGETHER

School apps are the simplest and most cost-effective way of keeping in touch with parents and carers. School apps are more secure and reliable than voicemail, text, email messages or notes left in school bags.

An app for your school will provide instant communication to parents and students. It will keep them informed of the school’s activities through notifications, events, photos and newsletters. Halve your communication costs, improve efficiency and build awareness.

Push notifications have a 97% response rate, and 90% are read within 3 minutes of receipt. This gives you the ability to instantly connect with parents, students and staff. In a few keystrokes, on the fly, from a mobile or desktop, the message is sent and those receiving it will read it within a few minutes. School apps are quickly taking the place of other alert systems that have fallen behind the technology curve, cost too much and have a smaller reach.

What our School clients say about us?

  • We obtained quotes from many app development companies from several countries. App City has built an app with all the features we required at a very competitive price.

    App City has proved to be extremely efficient also very reliable. The app has all the features we require plus extras that I was unaware of when the app was finally built.

    Plus building a new website which blends into and enhances the app, makes it the complete package.

    Also, they are focused on promoting the app energetically and vigorously, in areas that that I did not expect .

    If you require an app look no further than App City, they tick all the boxes.

    A very satisfied client.

    Roly James - No More Bullying Me

    Tahnee Svensk - Owner of Tahnee and The Treehouse

  • We are loving our new App! Thank you very much App City, it has been wonderful working with you – a most enjoyable process – every step of the process.

    Tara Errity - Director of Development, Good Shepherd Lutheran College NT

  • It is with great pleasure that I write this testimonial for App City.

    App City was recommended to us, by a fellow school, and I’m so happy they did.  Heleen and her team were incredibly helpful, listened to our ideas, their after sale support is second to none.

    I was impressed at how easily our app came together.  A professional, functional app, without the extraordinary price tag.  The training I received from Heleen makes our app easy to use and update when needed.

    I have no problem in recommending App City.

    Kelly Layet - Marketing & PR Coordinator, Bethania Lutheran School

  • The service received from App City from day one when contact was first made, to completion of the app and seeing it go live has been impressive. They provided professional skills in designing our school’s app and consistently high standard services to our school staff. Heleen also made herself available and communicated regularly with the school during the setup. The entire process, including preparation, design and publishing, was flawless.  Our experience with App City has been absolutely positive.

    Julian Zhou - IT System Manager, Peace Lutheran Primary School Gatton

  • I thought developing an app would be a long, slow and overwhelming process.

    I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome of a professional looking app with minimal fuss, developed in a fast and very timely manner. Can’t speak highly enough of how helpful the staff were.

    Karyn Bjelke-Petersen - Assistant to the Principal, St John’s Lutheran School Kingaroy

  • We are really fortunate to make our College app through App City. Right from the beginning they impressed us with their great service and technology used. App City worked excellently in integrating the college’s ideas with the app. They are always happy to listen and provide suggestion on our requirements.

    This app not only created excitement within the school community but also with our small regional town of Biloela, Qld. The kind of response and communication with the school has increased and we could see that from the day one the app got published. We are now enjoying on their patient and reliable after sale service.

    ICT Coordinator - Redeemer Lutheran College Biloela
