Websites and apps for dioceses, parishes and communities.
We have built the digital platform of a diocese, its schools' agency, a heritage church site and live results for diocesan arts festivals, alongside our own faith apps. We understand the content, the calendar and the people who will keep it updated.
In short
Appfide builds websites and mobile apps for dioceses, parishes, schools and faith organisations, including news, events, parish directories, daily readings, live festival results and multilingual content. Its work includes the Diocese of Cochin website and app and the Catholic AI app.

Why clients choose a small studio
Appfide builds and publishes its own products, and between them we take on a few hand-picked client projects at a time. You work directly with the people building your product, you approve the designs and a clickable version of every screen before development starts, and the code, accounts and store listings are yours at the end.
Frequently asked questions
Can parish staff update the website themselves?
+
Yes. We set up a simple editor for news, events and notices, and train the people who will use it.
Do you support Malayalam and other languages?
+
Yes. Our work for the Diocese of Cochin and Koonan Kurishu includes Malayalam and English content, and we can add other languages.
Can the website and the app share the same content?
+
Yes. We build them on one backend, so a news item or event published once appears on both.
