All systems nominal
Gayle Media Services is an independent software studio. We design and ship native iOS and Android apps and the backends that keep them running — and we manage the computers, phones and company logins that small businesses work from.
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, and we do not hand a project over and walk away. Every app and site below was designed, built and submitted by this studio — and is still operated by it.
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.
Every one of these is live right now. The status beside each is a real probe from our server, refreshed every ten minutes.

Our founder's personal portfolio and project index — the place experiments go before they earn a name of their own.
In the lab
An AI research notebook. Cited answers grounded in your own documents, and multi-host audio overviews generated from them.
An operator-console training environment for access control systems, modelled on industrial SCADA workstations.
A hybrid CAD/BIM platform for producing residential construction documents.
An at-home workout app for iPhone and Android, on the same API pattern as our shipped mobile work.
A browser-based life-simulation strategy game where every parenting choice compounds.
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.
Managed IT
Managed endpoint and identity services for small businesses. We set up and run the computers, phones and company logins your people work from, so the machines stay consistent, access follows the person rather than the device, and nothing is left switched on behind someone who has already left.
Laptops, desktops, tablets and phones arrive configured, enrolled and ready to hand over. Nobody loses an afternoon to setup wizards.
One company login per person, working across every device and application. Groups and permissions that match how the business is actually organised, not how the software assumed it would be.
Policies, updates and applications pushed out centrally instead of machine by machine. A lost phone is wiped remotely, without anyone needing to hold it.
A new hire has their accounts, devices and access working on day one. Someone who leaves loses all of it within the hour, everywhere at once, with nothing forgotten.
Multi-factor authentication, disk encryption and screen locks enforced rather than requested, with reporting that shows which devices actually meet the rules.
Tablets locked to a single job for a shop floor, waiting room or site office. Shift workers share a device without sharing a password.
Running on Microsoft 365 already, or starting from a drawer of unmanaged laptops — either way the first conversation is about what you have, not what we sell. Talk it through
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.
