Tasmania sells experience and provenance, and both are increasingly delivered through a phone. The visitor on a Salamanca Saturday wants to book the tasting, the cruise and the transfer in one place and find their way there. The producer in the Huon or on the east coast wants the harvest, the readings and the treatment recorded on the boat or in the paddock, not retyped that night. The distillery wants the cellar door counter, the list and the trade reps selling from one stock position.
NexusByte builds those apps for Hobart and Tasmanian businesses from our Australian base, in the same time zone, with the backend and office dashboard built as part of the same system. Visitor and booking apps for tourism and hospitality, capture apps for aquaculture and agriculture, ordering and counter apps for makers, and customer booking apps for the practices and services across greater Hobart and Launceston.
We design Tasmanian field apps offline-first, because the Channel, the Tasman Peninsula and most of the east coast are not places to depend on a signal, and we travel to Tasmania for discovery and prototype reviews with the people who will hold the device.
Apps we build for Tasmanian businesses:
Tasmanian apps have to work at the end of a gravel road and at the height of a cruise-ship morning. We design with the people who will be standing in both places.
An app a Tasmanian crew still opens every morning, and a visitor actually finishes a booking in, is the standard we build to.
A Tasmanian app might record a harvest at dawn with wet hands, sell a tasting to a cruise passenger at ten and sync a week of readings from a lease that has had no coverage since Monday. The design respects all three.
Each app ships with the reporting the grower, the operator or the practice owner will actually read.
Every software project starts with a clear scope and fixed pricing, so you always know what you're getting and when.
We deliver scalable, secure software backed by a transparent process and ongoing support.

There are very few app developers in Tasmania, and the mainland agencies that will take a Hobart brief are mostly set up for funded consumer products. A producer, operator or practice that needs a working app for its own operation needs something different: a serious backend, a focused app, someone who will get on a plane for discovery and someone answering the phone in the same time zone for years afterwards.
We build the app around the season, the lease and the signal, because that is where Tasmanian apps succeed or fail.
A visitor app that cannot hold a real seasonal product, or a harvest app that does not feed the export documents, has missed the point. We build the backend first, on the same stack our own booking, quoting and portal software runs on, so the counter, the boat and the office work from one set of data.
One API and database for the app, the website and the office dashboard, designed for queued offline sync and integration with accounting, channel managers and freight.
How we build the backendTraceability, booking, ordering and operations systems for Tasmanian businesses, with or without an app in front of them.
Software development in HobartPrototypes tested on a real phone with the crews, guides and counter staff who will use the app, before production code.
Our mobile app design principlesNot sure whether to go native or cross-platform? Our cross-platform apps guide sets out the trade-offs, and the full service is described on the mobile app development page.
Hobart's visitor economy runs on combinations: the tour with the tasting, the ferry with the gallery, the accommodation with the experience, the group with the dietary list, all shaped by cruise-ship days, the festival calendar and a winter that empties the city. Off-the-shelf booking apps rarely hold those products properly. We build visitor and booking apps that carry your real inventory, seasonal pricing and capacity rules, take payment, send the directions and the reminders, and feed the roster and the kitchen, connected to the channel managers and online travel agents you already use.
A salmon, oyster, mussel or abalone lease, an orchard in the Huon or a vineyard in the Coal River Valley generates records all day: stock counts, feed, treatments, water readings, harvest weights, blocks picked, sprays applied. An app that captures them where they happen, on the boat or in the row, with the lot identified and the reading time-stamped, and that syncs when the vessel or the ute is back in coverage, turns the evening's data entry into a by-product of the day's work and gives the export documents a clean source.
Tasmania's distilleries, wineries, breweries and makers sell through a cellar door, a mail-out list, venues and bottle shops across the state, mainland distributors and export, and the hardest problem is selling the same scarce stock through all of them without overselling. A counter app that knows the list member's allocation, a rep app that takes a trade order at the right price from a venue car park and a member app for managing deliveries all run on one allocation and pricing engine, so the stock position is the same everywhere.
Clinics, allied health groups, veterinary practices, tutoring and home services across greater Hobart want customers booking, confirming, paying and seeing their history from a phone, and staff seeing an accurate day without reception retyping it. We build both sides on one backend, connected to the practice management, accounting and payment systems already in use, with reminders that cut no-shows and intake completed before the visit.
Our developers are in Sydney, in Tasmania's time zone and a short flight away. Design and development run over video, shared prototypes and test builds installed on your own devices. We travel to Tasmania for discovery with your crews, guides or counter staff, for the prototype review in their working conditions and for go-live week. After launch the developers who built the app handle each iOS and Android release, security updates and the changes real usage suggests, so the app keeps working as the phones in your team's pockets change.

Amazing service by Laith. Clear up front costing, really helpful to work with, and thorough in getting the job done right. I'd definitely use him and NexusByte again.
Laith went out of his way to fix my dad's computer when everything was closed. He came home and spared my dad the trouble of travel
Laith was reliable, helpful and professional - will be recommending.
Absolutely recommend NexusByte and will be first point of contact for any future hardware support and fix services, and hopefully dealing once again with Laith. The entire process was an A+ experience from the moment the call was answered, through to the diagnostic, repair and return of the damaged laptop. Laith is fantastic. In every element of his service and support. Very personable, engaging, knowledgeable and understands the critical importance of service to customers. He provided clear information for every step from booking the appointment, was on time for visiting my home for diagnosis + collection and for return of the item (on a weekend!), for what to expect through the diagnostic works, and for the quoting and payment process. The price for the services provided was very reasonable and affordable. One of the best service experiences I have had and right from 'go'.

It's also fully responsive and works flawlessly across all screen sizes, from mobile to desktop.

I am so grateful of Laith's assistance today during a difficult and stressful time. Laith from NexusBytes is so knowledgeable, patient and compassionate. He was so calm which reassured me that I had found the right person. It took Laith only minutes to find the problem with my laptop and address it so that I could go safely back to work.

Amazing service. Job done, Lovely staff - highly recommend
Laith from Nexus Byte was fantastic from start to finish. He fixed my Sonos internet connectivity problem where others had tried and failed. I particularly liked that he contacted me the day after his service call to check that everything was still OK with my system. I would not hesitate to recommend Laith's services. Thanks again. Paul
