Our Story

We started Glitterbug back in 2016 in Dublin and our primary goal was to develop beautiful, high quality apps for ourselves.

We focused first on quiz apps and released our much loved QuizLand game back in 2017. 

After quizzes and games, we turned our attention to fiction and later to weddings.

We now use our in-depth knowledge of the app world to design and develop apps for you!

What sets Glitterbug apart from other App Development companies in Ireland?

We know apps. We, as cofounders, are app developers.

We also develop our own apps. We have been in your shoes designing and developing apps for ourself.

From years of experience in the app world, we know what attracts customers, what keeps them regularly using an app and what works well for both marketing your app and making money from it.

As technical cofounders, we write our own code, so we know every line. We stand out because we never outsource our development.
This is another reason why Glitterbug are one of the best app development companies in Ireland.

Hi. I’m cofounder Laura Cavanagh. I drive the technical arm of our business as the lead software developer.

After almost 13 years in a male-driven, intimidating, chauvinistic tech industry I wanted to create something better – a company where women had as much of a voice as their male counterparts and where women were safe and supported.

This is an important part of the Glitterbug ethos.

If you are looking for a female-led app development company supporting women in tech, then look no further.
