About the developer
Howell Asava
Developer, Vukalink
Howell Asava is the developer of Vukalink. He designs and builds the program in Kenya, and he sets the rules it follows: who pays, what the Free version allows, and what the person being helped can always see and stop.
What he is responsible for
- The design of the program and of each release.
- The plans and prices, the 60-day trial and the limits of the Free version.
- The security decisions: consent before every connection, the visible session banner, signed updates.
- What this website says. If something here is wrong, it is his to correct.
How he works
- Say what is true today. What is missing is written on the same page as what is finished.
- The person being helped stays in charge. They see who is connected and can end it with one click.
- Limits by amount, never by suspicion. The program does not guess what you use it for.
- Take payment the way customers pay. In Kenya that means M-Pesa and shilling prices.
In his own words
Why I built Vukalink this way: the four decisions behind the program.
