Service 04

iOS App Development

iPhone and iPad applications planned around the people who will use them and the systems they connect to. The technical approach, cross-platform or native, is chosen per project and confirmed in the proposal.

The problem we solve

Many organisations need their customers, staff or students to do something on their phone that a website does poorly: work offline, receive notifications or use the camera. We scope the smallest app that does that job well and connect it to the systems you already run.

FAQ

Common questions

Native or cross-platform?

It depends on the features, budget and whether Android is also needed. We recommend an approach in the proposal and explain the trade-off.

Do you handle App Store submission?

We prepare the build and the listing material and support the submission. The App Store account is normally owned by the client.

Who builds the app?

The delivery team, including any specialist partner, is named in the proposal before work starts.
