Product & UX design
User flows, screen designs and a clickable prototype so you can test the experience on a real phone before development begins.

Mobile App Development for iOS and Android
Cross-platform apps built once and shipped to both stores — from a first release to a live product with thousands of users. We have taken apps through the full App Store and Google Play review process, so submission is not an experiment for us.

One codebase, both app stores
Building separate native iOS and Android apps means writing everything twice and maintaining it twice. For the vast majority of business apps that is wasted budget. We build with React Native and Expo, which produces genuinely native apps for both platforms from a single codebase.
That halves the build cost, halves the ongoing maintenance, and means a fix or feature lands on both platforms at the same time instead of weeks apart.
Getting through store review
App Store and Google Play rejections are the most common reason a launch date slips. Privacy declarations, account deletion requirements, permission justifications, screenshot specifications and content ratings all have to be right.
We prepare store listings, assets and compliance material as part of the build and manage the submission on your behalf. If a review comes back with a query, we handle the response.

What an app build includes
From the first sketch to a live listing your customers can download, plus everything needed to keep it there.
iOS & Android build
A single React Native codebase compiled to real native apps for both platforms, matching each platform’s interface conventions.
Backend & APIs
Authentication, cloud database, push notifications, file storage and any third-party integrations the app depends on.
Push notifications
Segmented, scheduled and event-driven notifications — the single biggest lever on whether people keep using an app.
Store submission
Developer account setup, listings, screenshots, privacy policy, age ratings and the full review process managed end to end.
Updates & releases
Over-the-air updates for content and fixes, plus managed store releases when new features ship.

How an app project runs
A predictable sequence with fixed scope and no hourly surprises.
-
Scoping session
We separate the release-one essentials from the nice-to-haves. Shipping a focused first version beats launching late with everything.
-
Design & prototype
Full screen designs and an interactive prototype you can tap through on your own phone before we build it.
-
Sprint build
Development in two-week increments with a test build on your device at the end of each one, through TestFlight or an internal Android track.
-
Device testing
Real-device testing across screen sizes and OS versions, plus offline behaviour, permissions and edge cases.
-
Store submission
We prepare and submit to both stores, respond to reviewer queries and confirm the listings are live.
-
Post-launch support
Crash monitoring, analytics, OS-version compatibility updates and a roadmap for release two.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to build a mobile app?
Cost is driven by the number of distinct screens, whether you need user accounts and payments, and how much backend logic sits behind the app. Cross-platform development keeps it well below the cost of two separate native builds. We scope a fixed price after a free session where we agree what version one actually needs.
Do you build for both iPhone and Android?
Yes, and from one codebase. We use React Native and Expo, which compile to real native apps for both platforms. You get both apps for close to the cost of one, and future updates land on both at the same time.
Will you submit the app to the App Store and Google Play for us?
Yes. We handle developer account setup, store listings, screenshots, privacy declarations, content ratings and the submission itself, and we respond to any reviewer queries. The accounts are registered in your business name so you own the listings.
How long does an app take to build?
A focused first release typically runs a couple of months from approved designs to store submission, with store review adding a few days on top. Larger products run in phases so you have something real in users’ hands early rather than waiting for everything.
What happens after the app launches?
Apps need ongoing work: iOS and Android release new OS versions annually, store policies change, and libraries need security updates. We offer support plans covering crash monitoring, compatibility updates, store compliance and a monthly allowance for changes.
Do you work with clients outside the Cayman Islands?
Yes. We are based in the Cayman Islands and work remotely worldwide. Our shipped apps serve users across the Caribbean, the United Kingdom and West Africa.
