Android, iOS and cross-platform

Mobile app development

We build mobile apps for Android and iOS and handle the phone screens, the server side and the admin panel together. If you need both platforms, we usually suggest a cross-platform app built from a single codebase. That saves you time and budget.

What to know before you build an app

A mobile app pays off when customers use your service regularly: orders, bookings, a loyalty card, courier tracking. The first time, though, people look for you on Google. That is why most businesses start with a site that works well on phones and add the app later. If you want to start with a website, see the types and prices on our website development page.

The phone screens are only one part of the job. Products, orders and user accounts are stored on the server, and you manage them from an admin panel in your browser. If you already have a website, the app connects to its database, so you never enter products twice.

The questions below cover how native and cross-platform apps differ and how to choose between Flutter and React Native.

What the project includes

  • App design

    Screen layouts and visuals follow the Android and iOS design guidelines. You approve the design before development starts.

  • Android and iOS

    One platform or both. For two platforms, a cross-platform app written from one codebase cuts both time and cost.

  • Server side

    Accounts, products, orders and payments are stored on the server. The app works with them through an API.

  • Admin panel

    You manage products, prices, order statuses and users from your browser. You do not have to message a developer for every change.

  • Notifications and analytics

    Push notifications for order status and reminders. Analytics shows the screens where users drop off.

  • App Store and Google Play

    We publish the app to the stores and take it through review. The accounts are opened in your company's name, so the app stays under your control.

Mobile app prices

These figures are estimates. We work out the exact price from your feature list, and the estimate is free.

A Google Play developer account costs a one-time 25 USD, and the Apple Developer Program costs 99 USD a year. These fees are not included in the app price. The accounts are opened in your company's name.

Payment and guarantees

  • Interest-free installments

    You pay 30% upfront and the rest is split over 3–6 months with no interest or fees.

  • Paperwork that suits you

    We work with a contract, a handover act and an e-invoice (e-qaimə). If you do not need formal documents, a simple agreement is enough.

  • On-time delivery

    We deliver the work within the agreed time, and often earlier.

  • Quality guarantee

    All our work comes with a guarantee. We make the design and code for your business instead of recoloring a ready-made template.

How we build your app

  1. Call and free estimate

    We ask who the app is for and what the first version cannot do without. From the feature list we work out the price and timeline, and then we sign a contract.

  2. Requirements and design

    We write down the screens, the steps a user takes and what the admin panel needs to do. Then we show you the screen designs for approval.

  3. Development

    We build the app, the server side and the admin panel together. You see the work in stages and test interim builds on your own phone.

  4. Testing

    We test the app on real phones, on different screen sizes and on a slow connection. Older, low-end phones are on the list too.

  5. Release and support

    We upload the app to Google Play and the App Store and take it through review. Technical support is free, 24/7, for as long as the server is hosted with us.

What we need from you

  • The goal of the app

    One or two sentences on who it is for and what problem it solves.

  • Feature list

    Mark the must-haves for the first version separately. The rest can wait for the second phase.

  • Platforms

    Android only, iOS only, or both. If you have not decided yet, we will look together at which phones your customers use.

  • Apps you like

    A few examples, with what you like and dislike about each.

  • Brand materials

    Logo, brand colors, fonts and texts.

  • Existing systems

    If you have a website, a CRM or accounting software, the app can connect to them. Have their logins and documentation ready in advance.

Questions about mobile apps

How much does it cost to develop a mobile app?

Rough prices are as follows: a simple app costs 3,000–5,000 AZN, a mid-size app 5,000–10,000 AZN and a complex app from 10,000 AZN. We give you the exact figure after seeing the feature list, and the estimate is free.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes. You pay 30% when we start, and the rest is split over 3–6 months with no interest or fees. For paperwork we can use a contract, a handover act and an e-invoice (e-qaimə), or just a simple agreement, whichever suits you.

How long does it take to build an app?

A simple app takes about 1–2 months and a mid-size app 2–3 months. We deliver complex projects in stages. Allow a few extra days for app store review as well.

Do I need separate apps for Android and iOS?

Not always. With the cross-platform approach, one codebase gives you both apps. That cuts time and cost. For heavy graphics, games or work with special hardware, native development is more reliable.

Flutter or React Native?

Both can produce a high-quality app. If your website is built with React, React Native lets you share part of the code. If you want the same look on both platforms and plenty of animation, Flutter is the more convenient choice.

Who uploads the app to the App Store and Google Play?

We do. The developer accounts are opened in your company's name. Google Play charges a one-time 25 USD and Apple 99 USD a year. Apple requires a D-U-N-S number for a company account, so get one in advance.

Should I build a website or an app first?

In most cases the website. It is quicker to build, and customers find you on Google. The app comes later, once customers use your service regularly, and it runs on the same database as the site.

Does the app need support after release?

Yes. Android and iOS are updated every year, and the app stores change their requirements. Technical support is free, 24/7, 365 days a year, for as long as the server is hosted with us.

Can a PWA replace an app?

For simple cases such as a catalog, ordering or booking, yes. A PWA is a website that opens in the browser but can be added to the phone's home screen like an app. If you need to be in the app stores or rely heavily on the phone's features, an app is the better fit.
