Our mobile app developers build to your budget, and within your timeline, ensuring you are completely happy with the finished project.

Our mobile app development strategy

In our opinion, the build itself is the least important step. Our priority lies in the research phase, laying the correct ground work is imperative to creating an app that lives up to your expectations. We understand that every business, every app, and every project is different, so we spend a considerable amount of time in the planning and research phase, making sure we know the ins and outs of your needs before we start to build.

A well-designed, well monetised app is crucial for business today. We can help you build one.

Apps Built Around Real Business Goals

An app should earn its place on a customer’s phone. Before we recommend building one, we look at what you want it to achieve: saving your team time, giving customers a faster way to book or buy, keeping clients engaged between visits, or opening up a new source of revenue. If a responsive website or web app would do the job more cost-effectively, we will tell you, because our goal is the right solution for your business rather than the biggest project.

What We Can Build

• Customer-facing apps: booking, ordering, loyalty and account management apps that make it easier for customers to deal with you.
• Internal business apps: tools for field teams, job management, stock, inspections and reporting that replace paperwork and spreadsheets.
• Web apps and progressive web apps: app-like experiences that run in the browser on any device, without an app store download.
• Integrations: connecting your app to your website, CRM, payment provider or existing software.

Our App Development Process

1. Research and discovery

This is where most of the value is created. We talk to you about your users, your processes and your goals, look at competing apps and agree the features that matter most for the first version.

2. User experience and design

We map out how people will move through the app, then design screens that are simple, clear and consistent with your brand. You review and approve the designs before development starts.

3. Development

Our developers build the app in stages, sharing progress along the way so you can test features and give feedback early.

4. Testing

We test on a range of devices and screen sizes, checking performance, security and usability, and fix issues before launch.

5. Launch

We help you prepare your app store listings, screenshots and descriptions, and support the submission process.

6. Support and improvement

After launch we monitor feedback and performance, fix any problems and plan future updates based on how people actually use the app.

Designed for Your Budget and Timeline

We agree scope, budget and timescales before work begins, and we prioritise the features that deliver the most value first. Many clients launch a focused first version, learn from real users and then add features in later phases. This keeps costs under control and means you are not paying for features nobody uses.

Getting People to Download and Use Your App

An app is only valuable if people use it. As a full-service digital marketing agency we can help you promote it through social media, paid advertising and email marketing to your existing customers, and our graphic design team can create app icons, store graphics and promotional artwork.

App or Website?

For many businesses, a fast, mobile responsive website delivers most of the benefits of an app at a lower cost. An app makes more sense when customers will use it regularly, when you need features such as push notifications or offline access, or when it supports a service they rely on. Our web development team can advise on which route suits you best.
