Can one app cover both iOS and Android?

For most customer and business applications, yes: a cross-platform codebase can serve both stores and keeps maintenance in one place. Where the app relies on deep hardware access or platform-specific behaviour, we assess native development instead.

Does a mobile app need its own backend?

If your current system can expose an API, the app can connect to it directly. If it cannot, a service layer is needed to supply the data and authorisation the app depends on. During discovery we review your existing infrastructure and decide the right route with you.

Do you handle the store approval process?

We run the release process and prepare account configuration, privacy declarations, permission justifications and store listing assets. The review decision belongs to Apple and Google, so we do not make commitments about approval timing or outcome; if feedback comes back, we make the required changes and resubmit.

What happens after the app goes live?

Mobile apps need maintenance as operating system versions and store policies change. We set up a regular update cycle informed by crash reports and usage data, and server-side continuity can be handled together with our cloud and technical operations service.

A mobile app is not a standalone interface; it is your data and process layer carried in someone's pocket. That is why mobile projects are usually decided not on screens but on the API contract, session handling and synchronisation strategy. What the app does when a user loses connectivity in a lift, a warehouse or the field is a design decision, and it cannot be retrofitted. We approach mobile by defining data and state flow before the interface layer.

Problems we solve

The business problems this work solves

The mobile experience is just a squeezed version of the website
An interface delivered through the browser cannot push notifications, use device capabilities or hold a place on the home screen. For businesses whose usage is shifting to mobile, that means losing the repeat interaction.
Field teams still run on paper and messaging apps
When service visits, installations, inspections and deliveries only reach the system after someone returns to the office, the data arrives late and incomplete. Internal business apps capture the record where the work actually happens.
The app is unusable without a connection
For users in warehouses, on sites, in stockrooms or on the road, constant connectivity is not a safe assumption. Offline capability and deferred synchronisation determine whether the app is genuinely usable.
Store submission becomes the bottleneck
Account configuration, privacy declarations, permission justifications and review feedback turn into an unexpected obstacle for unprepared teams. Release should be planned as an extension of the engineering work, not a surprise at the end.

Our approach

The platform decision follows the requirement

A cross-platform approach lets most business applications reach both stores from a single codebase. Where the product depends on deep device access or specialised performance, we recommend native development. We base the call on discovery findings, not on a house preference.

Offline behaviour is designed from the start

Which data lives on the device, how conflicts are resolved and when synchronisation is triggered are among the first architectural decisions. That is what makes the app behave predictably the moment connectivity drops.

The app is a client of your systems

We do not treat the app as an island but as a client of your existing backend, CRM or e-commerce platform. Once the API contract is settled, the app draws on the same source of truth as the rest of the business.

Process

How we work

1
Use case and platform analysis
We define who will use the app, in what environment and how often, then settle the platform choice, device requirements and offline expectations on that basis.
2
Flow design and API contract
Screen flows, the session and permission model, notification scenarios and the data contract with the backend are agreed, and every integration point is written down.
3
Development and on-device testing
The app is built in versioned increments and tested on real devices, across screen sizes and under poor connectivity, then distributed to your team through test builds.
4
Store release and post-launch follow-up
We handle App Store and Google Play account configuration, privacy and permission declarations and the review process, then track crash reports and usage data to shape the update plan.
