Aces on Mobile is a small independent mobile app lab in Dresden. We build software with Kotlin Multiplatform — Android, iOS, Linux, Mac, Windows and web — for clients and for ourselves: from the first sketch to the store listing.
Selected work
The German electronic patient record (ePA): base libraries, the white-label app most statutory health insurers ship to their members, and a Kotlin Multiplatform login SDK used by insurers such as AOK and Barmer.
DB Streckenagent, the second-largest app of Deutsche Bahn, and the white-label platform behind the transit apps of Karlsruhe, Rhine-Main and Dresden.
One of Europe’s largest ride-hailing apps, its driver counterpart, and the car-sharing apps of car2go and ShareNow — as developer, then Android team lead.
The XING Android app, and at MAGIX in Dresden Camera MX — one of the first alternative camera apps for Android, past 20 million installs — plus Music Maker JAM and Video Edit Touch.
How we work
Kotlin Multiplatform for the logic, native interfaces where they matter: Android, iOS, Linux, Mac, Windows and web from the same core. One set of rules, no drift between platforms.
No attention traps, no dark patterns, no feature that exists only to move a metric. An app is finished when it does its job without asking for anything.
Things work without a connection wherever they can, and data stays on the device wherever the job allows. What an app does collect is named in its privacy notice — no more than the job needs.
Client work and our own apps take turns instead of overlapping. That is why the list stays short — and why each thing on it gets a proper turn at the table.
Who is behind it
Independent and self-funded: sixteen years of mobile software for clients, plus our own apps — small enough that the people who write the code also answer the support mail.
Day to day, Aces on Mobile builds software with Kotlin Multiplatform — Android, iOS, Linux, Mac, Windows and web: shared logic, native interfaces, released and maintained on every target it ships to. Client projects run the same way our own apps do, which is the whole point of keeping the lab small.
