Avelgood Apps is mobile phone applications development company based in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.
Operations
Avelgood App's focuses on developing Mobile phone apps for Nokia Asha, Nokia S40, and Windows Phone platforms.
Notable Work
The company's most successful product is the flashlight app called Lumina Flashlight Torch. According to the company, the app had, by November 2013, been downloaded over 5.4 million times since its release in August 2012[1]
In 2012, Avelgood Apps developed the first mobile phone application that provided real-time updates of the Africa Cup of Nations matches. The Java ME app provided real-time commentary for AFCON 2012 matches in addition to providing group tables, match results, statistics, and team profiles. The app was later updated to provide coverage for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nation tournament[2]
Notably, a huge gap existed in online coverage of Zimbabwean football, particularly evidenced by the lack of official websites for the national football association and the top flight league. Avelgood Apps co-developed FootballZone Archived 21 May 2013 at the Wayback Machine to be a premium source of Zimbabwe football news.[3]
History
Avelgood Enterprises (Pvt) Ltd operating under the trade name Avelgood Apps was founded in 2008. The company started off exploring the development of scientific software. In 2009, it decided to focus on web related services based on the anticipated growth in demand for such services that would accompany the stabilization and possible subsequent growth in the Zimbabwe economy following the dollarisation of the economy.
In 2012, the company changed its trade name from Avelgood Web Design to Avelgood Apps, inline with the emphasis that the company was now putting on developing mobile applications.
