core framework

All Masabi applications are built on our tried and tested core software framework offering the following advantages:

portability

Mobile phones are ubiquitous - but they aren't all created equal.

Masabi were developing for mobile phones when they had black & white screens - the skills we gained over the years are irreplaceable for delivering consumer apps everyone can access.

Mobile software development platforms

The DevelopME platform runs on Java, the only viable mass-market solution for interactive secure apps on mobile, with fallback to the mobile web, SMS and MMS where appropriate and secure.

Masabi support many handsets through our active participation in manufacturer developer programmes
