Mobile apps

Mobile app development
for iOS and Android at once.

Building the same app twice, once for each platform, is how small teams burn budget. A single codebase covering both, sharing the backend your web platform already runs on, gets you to launch faster and keeps the two from drifting apart afterwards.

What usually goes wrong

Three problems
we see every time.

01

Two apps, two teams, two sets of bugs

Separate native builds mean every feature is specified twice, built twice and broken twice. For most businesses the native-only advantage does not justify that cost.

02

The app and the website disagree

When the app has its own backend, data drifts. A customer sees one balance on the web and another in the app, and support absorbs the difference.

03

Rejected at App Store review

First-time submissions get rejected constantly, usually for privacy disclosures, account deletion requirements or metadata problems that are entirely avoidable if you know the rules going in.

What we build

Mobile App Development,
built the way it should be.

One codebase, both platforms

iOS and Android from a shared codebase, with platform-specific behaviour where it genuinely matters rather than everywhere by default.

Shared backend with your web platform

One source of truth for accounts, data and billing, so the app and the site can never tell a customer two different things.

Push notifications and offline support

The two things users actually notice: reaching them when it matters, and not breaking the moment the signal drops.

Store submission handled

App Store and Play Store listings, privacy disclosures, review requirements and the submission itself, so the launch does not stall on paperwork.

Every build includes
  • SEO-friendly structure
  • Mobile-first, works on every device
  • Fast load times
  • Clean, accessible code
  • Analytics & tracking set up from day one
  • A design system built around your brand

Questions

Asked and answered.

Do we actually need an app?

Often not, and we will say so. If your users visit occasionally and do not need offline access or push notifications, a fast mobile website does the job for a fraction of the cost and none of the store overhead. Apps earn their place with repeat usage.

Which framework do you build with?

A cross-platform stack by default, chosen for the project rather than for fashion. If your app genuinely needs deep native capability we will tell you, because that changes both the approach and the budget.

Who owns the App Store accounts?

You do, always. The apps are published under your developer accounts, and you retain full ownership and access whether or not we keep working together.

What about ongoing maintenance?

Apps are not one-off purchases. Both platforms ship breaking changes annually and unmaintained apps eventually get delisted. We offer ongoing maintenance, and if you would rather handle it internally we hand over documented code.
