The Haven of Rest, a Christian radio program by Paul Myers, has been broadcast across the globe since 1934 delivering listeners a message of encouragement, hope, and redemption.

Now operating under the name “Haven Today” – the program reaches older and newer listeners alike not just on the radio, but also via podcasts, their website, and the mobile app.

I worked with the team at Haven to build them a cross-platform mobile app for iOS and Android replacing a previous version that had bugs and other usability issues. My responsibilities included taking designs from their in-house designer in Adobe XD and converting them into a fully functional mobile application.

The backend for the app was built on top of their existing WordPress website and utilized the WordPress API and a custom plugin to expose all of the data that makes the Haven app tick to the mobile app.

The app itself was built using the open-source Titanium framework. With Titanium, you’re able to build apps for both iOS and Android using a single unified codebase. This helped keep the development costs under control and made it possible to build a bespoke app from the ground-up customized for their unique demographic and business requirements.

Need an app like this for your business or non-profit? I can help! Drop me a line and let’s chat.
