Why it matters

Reach users wherever they are.

The question is rarely iOS or Android. It is whether you need an app at all, and what has to sit behind it if you do.

Progressive Web Apps

Installable, app-like experiences delivered through the browser with no app store required.

Native-feel experiences

Smooth animations, gestures and interactions that match what users expect from mobile apps.

Offline capability

Service workers and local storage strategies that keep your app usable without a connection.

Push notifications

Timely, relevant notifications that re-engage users and deliver important updates.

Cross-platform development

A single codebase that delivers consistent experiences across iOS, Android and the web.

App store deployment

Guidance and support for publishing your application to Apple and Google app stores.

When you need this

When a website is not the right shape.

An app is a serious commitment: two platforms, store review, and users who have to be persuaded to install something. A responsive website avoids all of that, and for most requirements it is the better answer.

The cases below are the ones where a website genuinely cannot do the job, or where the usage pattern justifies the extra cost.

Signs it is time

  • It has to work offline — Field staff, warehouses, basements or anywhere the signal is unreliable.
  • You need the device itself — Camera, barcode scanning, precise location, biometrics or reliable push notifications.
  • Usage is daily and habitual — People open it often enough that an icon on the home screen earns its place.
  • A PWA would do the job — Often the honest answer, and a good deal cheaper to build and maintain than two native apps.
At a glance

One backend and one shared API behind every client, so the app, the Android build and the website agree with each other instead of drifting apart. Scroll the diagram sideways to see all of it.

Questions

Planning the engagement.

PWA or native app?
A Progressive Web App is usually the right starting point: one codebase, no store approval, installable from the browser, and offline capability. Native becomes worth the extra cost when you need deep device integration, reliable background behaviour, or store presence as a distribution channel in its own right.
Can mobile apps integrate with our website?
They generally should. The sensible pattern is one backend exposing a shared API, with the app and the website as clients of it. That way business rules live in one place and the two cannot drift apart as each gets changed over time.
What about app maintenance?
Apps need more ongoing attention than websites. Operating system releases, store policy changes and device deprecations all force updates whether or not you are adding features, so an app is best planned with a maintenance budget from the start.
Do you handle App Store and Play Store submission?
Yes, including the account setup, listing assets, privacy declarations and the review process. First submissions are frequently rejected for reasons unrelated to the code, so it is worth building time for that into the launch plan.
How do you handle data on the device?
As little as possible, stored encrypted, and cleared on logout. Anything sensitive stays on the server unless there is an offline requirement that genuinely needs it locally, in which case it is encrypted at rest and synchronised as soon as a connection returns.
