03 · Build · Mobile apps

Mobile apps for iOS and Android, from first version to the app stores.

Scoped tightly, prototyped first, and built in two-week sprints you can follow.

What you get

Everything included, in plain words.

Most apps go over budget because the first version tries to do everything. We help you decide what the first version must do, test it as a clickable prototype, and then build it in short sprints. You see progress every two weeks and can change direction before it costs much.

  • Scope and feature list for the first version
  • Clickable prototype you can test with users
  • iOS and Android apps from one codebase
  • Back end, sign-in, and admin where needed
  • App Store and Google Play submission
  • Analytics and crash reporting

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How much does an app cost?

It depends on features, platforms, and the back end. The worked examples above show typical starting points. We give a fixed quote after scoping.

How long does it take?

A focused first version usually takes 10 to 16 weeks from scoping to the app stores.

iOS, Android, or both?

Usually both, from one codebase. That keeps cost and maintenance down.

Who owns the code?

You do, along with the app store accounts.

What happens after launch?

We offer support plans for fixes, operating system updates, and new features.

How do you handle security and user data?

We use proven sign-in and hosting services, encrypt data in transit, and collect only what the app needs.

Do we need a website too?

Most apps need at least a landing page for the app stores and for search. We can build it alongside.

Can you take over an existing app?

Yes. We start with a code review and tell you honestly whether to extend it or rebuild.
