Who can benefit from this package:

Mobile App is not for every business.  Here are categories of businesses that we think can benefit from a mobile app in order to scale, improve operations and engage with users:

• Healthcare
• Food & Hospitality
• Fintech, Finance, and Banking
• Education and Training

• Media and Entertainment
• Event Planning
• Real Estate
• Government and Public Services

We develop for both Android and IOS. Here are the 8-steps in our Mobile App Development package:

• Step 1: Ideation

The ideation process is an important part of mobile app development as it helps to ensure that the app is designed with the user in mind and solves a real problem.  In this step, we help you and your team to generate, develop, and refine new ideas for a mobile app. We help you understand the target audience’s pain points and come up with creative solutions to meet their needs.

• Step 2: Discovery & Research

Once the problem is identified, it’s important to understand the target audience and the competition. We can assist in conducting surveys, focus groups, and competitor analysis to understand what users are looking for in an app and what similar apps are already available.

• Step 3: Tech Stack Selection

The choice of tech stack can have a significant impact on the success of the app. It affects the app’s performance, scalability, and the resources required to develop and maintain it. We can assist you in choosing the right set of technologies, such as the combination of programming languages, software frameworks, libraries, and tools that a developer uses to build an app.

• Step 4: UX/UI Design (Front-end development)

As a creative design agency, we carve a user-first interface and mobile experience with our core focus on our client’s long-term goals. User experience (UX) and user interface (UI) are critical components of the mobile app development process that determine how users interact with and perceive the app. We create wireframes, low-fidelity, and high-fidelity mock-ups that give visual structure to your app’s features and functions and map out the user journey.

• Step 5: App Development and Coding (Back-end development)

By focusing on writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code, our developers can create an app that is reliable, scalable, and enjoyable to use, turning the design and concept into a fully functional product.

• Step 6: Testing and Debugging

Once the app is developed, we run the app through various scenarios and use cases to identify any issues or bugs. This can include unit testing, integration testing, and system testing, among others.

Then we start debugging the issues that were found during testing. This can involve analyzing logs, tracing the code, and fixing bugs to ensure that the app works as expected.

• Step 7: Deploying MVP (Minimum Viable Product)

In this phase, we choose the platform to publish the app to and prepare the app for deployment, making it available for users to download and use. This is an important step in the mobile app development process as it allows our developers (and you) to gather feedback from real users, validate our ideas, and improve the app based on user feedback.

• Step 8: V2 Features/ Support

It is important to keep the app relevant and valuable to users over time. By regularly updating the app with new features, bug fixes, and improvements, we can ensure that your mobile app remains an important tool for your users and that it continues to meet their needs and expectations.
