About us
Leeds Mobile is Leeds based community for sharing knowledge and experiences of building, designing, testing and delivering mobile applications. Everyone is welcome, regardless of their background or skill set.
We run one event per month, and host it in person. We aim to have one talk per event, which will be proceeded by us getting some food to feed attendees, and then followed by an optional visit to a nearby pub.
The aim is to host our events at different business in and around Leeds, and to have a broad range of topics to attract a diverse audience.
Please visit our website for more information about the event at https://www.leedsmobile.com.
You can also watch our past talks over on our YouTube channel at

RevenueCat Shipaton IRL
Lloyds Banking Group Wellington Place, 12 Wellington Place, Leeds LS1 4AJ, Leeds, GBThis September, we are teaming up with RevenueCat to host an official Shipaton IRL event at Lloyds Banking Group.
Part of the world's biggest mobile hackathon for people who actually ship, this gathering is all about sharing your ideas, showing off what you have been building, and getting inspired by stories from fellow developers in the community. Whether you are aiming for one of the global prize categories or just want to connect with local builders, this is the place to do it.
We will be joined on the evening by Matt Heaney, a Developer Support Engineer from RevenueCat, who will be coming along to answer your questions about launching apps and shipping to the app stores. It is a fantastic opportunity to get direct advice on your technical toolchain, monetisation, or anything else you need to push your project over the finish line.
Also, Leeds Mobile celebrates its 3rd birthday this year! We'll continue the tradition with Luke Stringer delivering a year in review, as well as providing some delicious birthday cupcakes for everyone 🎂
