Android remittance app UI template
An elegant, feature-rich Android remittance app UI template designed to help developers accelerate development and launch polished money transfer experiences with confidence.
The demo is an installable APK for Android 8.0 or newer.
About the template
Arro is a fully working Android app for sending money abroad. It runs without a server: a simulated backend inside the app prices transfers from live mid-market rates, moves them through realistic stages, runs refunds and identity checks, and saves everything on the phone.
You get an established interface and an extensive set of remittance screens, interactions and user-facing features. One class, ArroBackend, sits between the screens and that simulated logic, so you can replace it with calls to your own servers without rewriting the UI.
In the template
You add for a live service
Arro is a UI template. It does not process real payments or move real money, and it is not banking infrastructure.
Features
Every feature below is built into the template and works in the demo.
A streamlined journey from amount to approval. The quote updates as the user types, and the full price is shown before anything is sent.
Time-limited rate offers appear with a countdown. Users lock a rate for 10 minutes, and the lock is re-checked before money moves.
1 GBP = 173.66 KESoffer rate in the sample account
DemoOffers come from the simulated backend. In the demo, Account › Demo controls shows one on request.
Screenshots
Six real screenshots of Arro 1.0.0, captured on an Android emulator with the sample account and not edited. Tap a screen to enlarge it. The full app has 96 screens and states: install the demo to explore them all.
See the other 90 screens and states, from sign-up and identity checks to receipts and support, in the demo.

ArroAndroid home screen widgets
Three resizable widgets bring the balance, the people you send to and the latest rate onto the user's home screen. Each one picks a layout that fits its size.
The available balance and the four people the user sent to most recently. Tapping a person starts a transfer to them once the app is unlocked.
The main balance at a glance, with a Send money button. A setting in Security hides the balance and recipients on all widgets.
The exchange rate for the user's usual destination. When a rate offer is running, the widget shows it with a Lock rate button.

Questions
A native Android app for sending money abroad, written in Kotlin with Jetpack Compose and Material 3. It has 96 screens and states, light and dark themes, three home screen widgets and a simulated backend, so every flow works as soon as you run it.
The full Android Studio source project, a demo APK, documentation in HTML and PDF, the third-party licence list and the changelog. The source includes the three widgets, the Outfit font, the original icons, illustrations and logo, 30 unit tests and an automated screenshot tour.
Not to run. A simulated backend inside the app handles quotes, transfers, refunds, identity checks and support replies, and saves everything on the phone.
To launch a real service you replace the simulated backend with your own servers. One class, ArroBackend, sits between the screens and that logic, and the documentation explains how to connect it.
Yes. Colours, fonts and shapes are in one theme file, all screen text is in strings.xml, and the logo and launcher icon are vector drawables. The sample account, fees, limits and offers are set in gradle.properties and a few constants. The documentation has a step-by-step rebranding guide.
No. Arro is a front-end template. It doesn't move real money, take real payments or verify real identities. A live service needs your own backend, a payment provider, an identity-verification provider, payout partners and the licences your country requires.
Yes, three: Quick Send, Balance and Rate. Each one is resizable, follows the light or dark theme, and opens the right screen in the app. The Rate widget also shows running rate offers and locked rates.
Yes, that's what it's for. You can rebrand it, extend it and publish apps built from it under the terms of your licence. The Standard licence covers one end product. The Extended licence covers unlimited end products for you or your clients. Neither allows reselling or sharing the source code itself.
No. Arro is Android only. An iOS version can be built as a separate custom development project.
Yes. Backend, API, iOS and full-platform development are available as separate, individually scoped engagements. They aren't included in the template purchase. Use the contact options on this page to discuss your project.
Download the demo APK on Google Drive and install it on a phone with Android 8.0 or newer. Your phone may ask you to allow installs from your browser or files app, because the demo isn't installed from Google Play. Then tap I already have an account › Fill in sample account.
