iOS app development in Motueka.
For Motueka operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.
When picking starts, Motueka growers take on hundreds of seasonal workers. We automate onboarding, timesheets and payday filing so harvest is not buried in forms.
Already buried in admin? We'll sort the first workflow for you :)
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*
*Illustrative, based on 9 hours a week of admin at a typical 80% automation rate. The calculator uses your own numbers.
Built differently, on purpose.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.

Business in Motueka.
Motueka is a horticulture hub that hosts hundreds of seasonal workers at harvest, and horticulture and fruit growing is the Tasman District's biggest export industry.
Motueka is also the name of a hop variety grown in the district. Harvest brings hundreds of seasonal workers for fruit crops and hops.

The shape of the result for Motueka teams: We ship to TestFlight in the first fortnight, so you hold the app before you commit to the build.
- Native Swift where performance matters, cross-platform where it does not
- App Store review handled end to end, including the rejections
- Sign in with Apple, push, camera and offline handled properly
- TestFlight builds so your team tries it before your customers do
- No shelfware or licences you do not use
- No annual contracts
Straight answers
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default iOS app development stack we reach for is Swift, SwiftUI, Expo, TestFlight, App Store Connect, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
Has this actually shipped for a real Motueka?
Yes. We ship to TestFlight in the first fortnight, so you hold the app before you commit to the build. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
Is our data kept in New Zealand?
Kiwi Dynamics hosts its own infrastructure in New Zealand, under New Zealand governance. If personal information ever has to go offshore, privacy principle 12 requires comparable protection.
