Located just east of the Savannah river and just north of the city of Savannah Georgia, the City of Port Wentworth is a small city with a population of 14,468 (2023 Census). As a Purple Heart, Stand Up for America City, it is a diverse, dynamic, vibrant, and growing City. The city was looking for a mobile app to help it better interact with its citizens and manage the ever growing communication needs of the city.

The city settled on the Info Grove platform to launch its mobile app as the platform provided the features they were looking to have in their app. Working closely with key staff at the city, the Info Grove team developed a few design options for the app following the city branding guidelines as well as a content map. Once the design was chosen and the content map approved, the team started to develop the app and gather the content for insertion into the platform via the Info Grove Content Management System (CMS). Once the app and content completed,a beta version of the app was provided to the city for feedback and comments. Upon approval, the app was launched by the Info Grove team on behalf of the city on both the Apple app store and Google Play. The entire process was completed in just 3 months.
