Looking for an app developer to design a simple location finder app, similar to a cash machine locator.

Anyone had any experience with a firm or freelancer, ideally the latter. Fed up with ridiculous quotes off agencies for this quite simple job.

Any help appreciated!

Hello,

We can help you with this, but you need to know which direction you want to go in.

A native app (i.e. written directly for Apple or Android)
A web app (a webpage that pretends to be an app)
A hybrid version.

Feel free to drop me an email if you want some help choosing a direction. I think once you know this, you will be better equipped to choose a supplier.

I love how something you probably don't know how to do is a "quite simple job"! If it is a simple job why not do it yourself?

Get used to shocking quotes. You're about to hear more of them!

can't you look at ones available?

buy one?

modify a free one?

If my colleague can get one working then it can't be that hard.

App or on a website for the final location?

In fact if you want I can ask my colleague how he did it on Monday for a large bank and to a decent standard.
