Android App Developer in the UK: Meet YourTechGuys and Explore My Apps

Hi, and welcome to YourTechGuys. I’m an independent Android app developer based in the UK, and this blog is where I share how I build apps, what I’ve learned along the way, and the projects I’m working on. If you’re looking for an Android developer for your next idea, or you just want to try some of my apps, you’re in the right place.

Who I am

I design and develop clean, reliable Android applications that solve real problems. I’ve built and published more than twenty apps of my own on Google Play, from arcade games to productivity tools and everyday utilities. Every one of them has taught me something about what makes an app genuinely useful: it has to be fast, easy to understand and dependable every time you open it.

I’m a developer, a problem solver and a tech enthusiast. I enjoy breaking complicated challenges down into simple, practical solutions, and I’m always exploring new frameworks and tools so the apps I build stay modern and maintainable.

My Android development skills

Here’s the toolkit I use to take an app from idea to the Play Store:

• Kotlin and Java: native Android development, written to be readable and easy to maintain.
• Jetpack Compose and Material Design: modern, responsive interfaces that look and feel at home on Android.
• Android SDK and Jetpack libraries: offline-first data storage, background work, notifications and more.
• Firebase: cloud sync, sign-in and backend services without the overhead of running servers.
• Google Play publishing: store listings, screenshots, privacy policies, data safety forms and ongoing policy updates.
• Web development: WordPress websites and JavaScript web tools, so your app and your website can work together.

Apps I’ve built

The best way to see what I can do is to try my apps. They fall into three groups:

• Games: arcade and action games such as Android Defender, Neon Galaxy Blaster, Blast Blocks and Stunt Car Racer.
• Productivity and business: tools like the Questling Habit Tracker, Moodboard Notes, Simply Customer Management and FlowMate.
• Utilities: everyday helpers including Manage My Budget, Subscription Sentinel, Quiet Time and Find My Car.

You can browse the full collection on my Apps page, or download them directly from my developer page on Google Play.

What this blog is about

This blog is for anyone interested in Android apps, whether you’re a business owner thinking about an app, a fellow developer, or someone who simply enjoys trying new apps. I’ll be writing about:

• What goes into publishing an app on Google Play, from listing to launch
• Behind-the-scenes updates on my own apps and new releases
• Practical advice on planning an app for your business

Need an Android app developer?

If you have an idea for an app, or an existing app that needs updates, bug fixes or help with Google Play policy changes, I’d love to hear about it. You’ll work directly with me, the person writing the code, from the first conversation to the final release and beyond.

Frequently asked questions

Do you build Android apps for businesses?

Yes. As well as publishing my own apps, I build custom Android apps for businesses and individuals, covering design, development, Google Play publishing and ongoing support.

Where can I download your apps?

All of my apps are available on my Google Play developer page. You can also read about each one on my Apps page.

Can you help with an app I already have?

Absolutely. I can update older apps for the latest Android versions, fix bugs, add features and keep your Play Store listing compliant with Google’s policies.

Thanks for stopping by. Explore the apps, check back for new posts, and if you’d like to work together, send me a message.
