Industry Auditions
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.

I've worked with Tricia at Moonwood across four different brand designs and concepts now, and I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with my branding. She's one of those rare creatives who doesn't just make things look beautiful. She gets to the heart of who you are, understands the brief almost instantly, and somehow turns the ideas in your head into a brand that feels even better than you imagined. Every project she's delivered has exceeded my expectations. She's incredibly talented, easy to work with, communicates brilliantly, and genuinely cares about getting it right. Nothing ever feels too hard, and the quality of her work is consistently exceptional. If you're looking for someone to create a brand that actually means something, stop looking. Trisha is worth every cent. She's been a huge part of bringing multiple businesses to life, and I couldn't recommend her more highly. Five stars isn't enough.

We have been working with moonward for around 5 months now and it has truly been amazing! They have truly taken our vision and brought it to life. Tricia design of our app was next level and really nailed so many details we hadn’t even shared yet. The whole team was really been amazing and I truly wouldn’t go with anyone else when it comes to building your app especially if you want a team that cares and understands! Moonward is for you!

Working with Moonward has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their attention to detail is second to none — nothing slips through the cracks, and every element is handled with genuine care. What really sets them apart is their intuition; they consistently anticipate needs before I even have to voice them, backed by deep general knowledge and a serious skillset across the board. Communication has been seamless throughout. They keep you informed, respond quickly, and make the entire process feel effortless. Time and again they've gone above and beyond, delivering service that exceeds every expectation. A special shout out to Heidy, Leo, and Issei — their work is absolutely flawless, and their dedication shines through in everything they do. It's rare to find a team this talented and this committed. I couldn't be happier with the results and can't wait to continue working together on my app. If you're looking for a team that truly delivers, Moonward is it. Highly recommended!

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 Lachyand 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

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.

Memble
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.

Uncommon Man
Wow! The team at Moonward have been nothing short of outstanding. They picked up the pieces when we were left in the lurch by another provider — and from day one, they’ve delivered with class, integrity, care, and real authenticity. It’s like they’ve been inside my head, taking what we’d envisioned and bringing it to life with us — not for us. What’s been different about Moonward is they’ve given us the space to create in parallel. They haven’t tried to drive the ideas — they’ve backed them. They’ve brought initiative, ideas, and clarity to the table, and they’ve made a complex build feel simple. Can’t speak highly enough of their team — and we’re already building something together that’s changing millions of men’s lives.

EvolveResolve
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 !

Flagged
We brought Mooward in to build the MVP for Flagged, and they delivered beyond what we expected. Tricia, Lachy, Declan, and Andrew were a brilliant team to work with from start to finish. As founders who are relatively new to this space, we were a little apprehensive going in. Having someone else build and ship your product is a big ask, and it's easy to feel out of your depth. Mooward completely put that to rest. Communication throughout was exceptional: clear, consistent, and genuinely transparent. Nothing was glossed over or buried in jargon. They took the time to make sure we actually understood what was being built and why, which isn't something you always get from a development partner. What stood out most was that they never made us feel like we were being kept in the dark. Every decision, trade-off, and piece of progress was communicated openly. That kind of honesty with founders who are still learning builds real trust. They used AI throughout the build to move fast without cutting corners, and the result speaks for itself: a fully built product, live on the App Store. We would work with Mooward again without hesitation and would recommend them to any early-stage team looking for a development partner who actually brings you along for the ride.

Competible

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.

The Sherpa Initiative
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.

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!!
