Mobile App Development
A mobile app is a product, not a project — it needs a clear route to launch and a plan for what happens after. We take apps from idea to the App Store and Google Play with one senior team handling design, development, backend and release.
Sound familiar?
An idea without a route to launch
You know what the app should do, but scoping, platforms, backend and store approval are a maze of decisions.
Native budgets doubling everything
Two codebases, two teams, two release cycles — when one well-built cross-platform app would serve users just as well.
An existing app losing users
Crashes, OS updates breaking things, ratings slipping — and the original developers are nowhere to be found.
What we build for you
Cross-platform apps
One React Native codebase shipping to iOS and Android — faster to build, cheaper to maintain.
Backend & APIs
The server side your app actually runs on: authentication, data, push notifications, payments.
App store launch
Store listings, review guidelines, submission and release management for both stores.
App rescues & upgrades
Taking over, stabilising and modernising apps whose original teams have moved on.
MVP app builds
A focused first version that validates the idea with real users before you scale the investment.
Ongoing maintenance
OS updates, dependency upgrades, monitoring and iteration — launch is the beginning, not the end.
Technologies we work with
- React Native
- TypeScript
- Node.js
- MongoDB
- Push notifications
- App Store & Play delivery
What changes for your business
- One codebase serving both platforms without doubling cost
- A launch that clears store review the first time around
- Crash-free sessions and ratings that hold after release
- A backend that scales as installs grow
A proven process, from idea to scale
Five clear stages keep your project on track, transparent, and moving — every step designed to reduce risk and ship value sooner.
STEP 01
Discover
We dive deep into your goals, users, and market to fully understand the problem worth solving.
STEP 02
Strategy
We map the roadmap, architecture, and success metrics that turn vision into an actionable plan.
STEP 03
Design
We craft intuitive, on-brand interfaces and prototypes validated with real user feedback.
STEP 04
Development
We build with clean, scalable code in agile sprints, shipping value continuously.
STEP 05
Launch & Scale
We deploy, monitor, and optimize — then keep scaling your product as you grow.
Frequently asked questions
Cross-platform or native — which should we choose?
For most business and consumer apps, cross-platform with React Native delivers native-quality experience at a fraction of the cost of two native codebases. Truly device-intensive apps — heavy graphics, specialised hardware — can justify native, and we'll tell you honestly if yours is one of them.
What drives the cost of an app?
Screens and flows, backend complexity, integrations (payments, maps, chat), and how much polish the first release needs. We scope free of charge and quote a fixed price for a defined first version, so the number is known before work starts.
How long until we're in the app stores?
A focused first version typically takes 8–12 weeks including store submission. Complex products take longer, but we phase them so a usable version reaches testers early.
Do you handle App Store and Google Play submission?
Yes — listings, screenshots, review-guideline compliance and the submission process for both stores, plus the release management for updates afterwards.
What happens when iOS or Android ships a breaking update?
That's exactly what a maintenance arrangement is for: we track OS and dependency updates, test against betas where it matters, and ship compatibility updates before your users notice anything.
