The brief

Alpha FM wanted the same direct route to listeners that we had built for Impact FM: a branded app that opens into the station and gets out of the way.

What we built

  • A branded Android app for Alpha FM listeners.
  • A quick path from icon tap to listening.
  • Consistent behaviour with the Impact FM build, without copying its identity.
  • Google Play Store distribution.

How it works

Each station app was treated as its own product rather than a reskin. The structure is shared, but the branding and content belong to the station. That balance kept development efficient without making the apps feel generic.

Outcome

A published app for another top Ugandan FM station, delivered alongside the Impact FM build.
