All systems nominal
Gayle Media Services is an independent software studio. We design and ship native iOS and Android apps — and the backends, dashboards and infrastructure that keep them running long after launch.
Live — not a mockup
Everything on this page is real and computed right now. The photographs below were taken on the surface of Mars by NASA's Perseverance rover and relayed to Earth. The orbital geometry is solved in your browser from Keplerian elements. The station telemetry refreshes every few seconds. We built it because describing what we do is less convincing than showing it.

Work
We publish under our own name. Every app below was designed, built, submitted and is maintained by this studio.
Finance · iPhone & iPad
The private member portal for Cresium Capital Partners. Real-time capital balances, full ledger history, portfolio holdings, meeting access and secure push notifications — backed by a PHP/MySQL API and Stripe.
Android · In progress
Our Play Console account is active again and the Android side of the catalogue is in build. Same apps, same backends, native Kotlin front end.
Web platforms & systems
Beyond the stores we run booking platforms, member portals, admin dashboards, payment pipelines and the deployment tooling that pushes them all to production.
Capabilities
Swift and SwiftUI on iOS, Kotlin and Compose on Android. Store submission, review, phased release and the unglamorous maintenance afterwards.
Authentication, payments, push, scheduled jobs and reporting. Written to be read by whoever inherits it, and instrumented so failures are loud.
The page you are reading is the pitch. Motion with a purpose, type that holds up at every size, and performance treated as a design constraint.
Git-based deploys, staged environments, backups, monitoring and a rollback that actually works. Launch day is the start of the job, not the end.
Studio
Gayle Media Services was the first company we registered — before the others, before the portfolio, before any of it worked. It is the name on the App Store listing and the name on the Play Console, and it has quietly been the parent of everything built since.
We stay deliberately small. That means the person who scopes your project is the person who writes it, submits it and answers the phone when something breaks at 11pm. There is no account layer between you and the code.
