Putting potential in your hands

Mobile App Development

Mobile matters. It can kickstart new services, increase revenue and help you stand out from competitors. But it's not always easy to get right. You need to be sure your product is well-built, user-focused and totally suited to your market’s needs.

With the right tools and methodologies, you can provide users with unique value, smooth usability, and exceptional performance. It’s unlikely you can achieve all of this alone. Instead, partner up with the experts who have been successfully delivering strategies, design and testing plus the web and backend services you need since the dawn of the Mobile age.

Kicking off a new project or looking to update an existing app? Weighing up the benefits of either native or cross-platform? Keen to explore improvements to your website that will make it more accessible to mobile users? The various options can be quite daunting but it’s important to choose the right technology to stand out from the crowd now and future-proof your product and codebase. Our team can help you navigate the mobile landscape and make the right decision.

iOS and Android Native Apps

Would you like full control of your app and ensure you’re providing the best possible experience on each mobile platform? A native approach allows you to take advantage of the leading features each platform has to offer and reduces reliance on third parties.

Cross-platform Technologies

Cross platform frameworks such as Flutter and React Native generally allow your app to be written once and deployed on multiple platforms. Recent advances in these technologies may make this approach more cost effective depending on your requirements.

Progressive Web Apps

Do you really need a separate app at all and could you avoid the need for users to spend time downloading and installing extra software? Rapidly evolving web app technology allows your website to behave like a native app on any platform, including mobile and desktop.

Accessibility

Around the world, 1 in 5 people struggle to use mobile apps due to varying abilities. We take an inclusive approach to design and development to ensure you don’t miss out on a huge segment of your audience. We believe that everyone should be able to access your app regardless of ability, circumstances or situational impairments.

Reliability

It goes without saying that a user will stop using your product if it repeatedly crashes or fails to meet their needs efficiently. Your app must be robust. It must be trusted to work when your customer needs it. We put our software through multiple layers of automated and manual testing to find and solve issues before releasing to your users.

Mobile First

Don’t compromise by creating something that works reasonably well on both the web and as an app, but doesn’t fully satisfy anyone. Our team of dedicated mobile product designers ensure your product is designed specifically to meet the needs of mobile users above anything else.
