Mobile apps for business: from the idea to the App Store and Google Play
An iPhone and Android app for your customers or your staff. A simple one from $1,000, with a backend from $2,500, on both platforms from $3,500.
Our apps on the App Store
These are our own products, so you can download and try them. We build, publish and update them ourselves.
iOS app
Habit tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch, live on the App Store.
iOS app
English course for Russian speakers, from zero to B1.
iOS app
Two-panel file manager for iPhone: archives, SFTP, FTP and WebDAV.
iOS app
A shared corgi on your Home Screen: feed and dress it with friends.

When an app pays off
If a customer comes once a year, you don't need an app: we'll suggest a website or a bot, which costs less.
Customers come back
Salons, gyms, coffee shops, delivery: anywhere people go every week.
Bookings and rewards
Bookings, order history and a loyalty card, always on the phone.
Push notifications
Reminders and offers arrive right away, with no newsletters or third-party platforms.
Team work
Couriers, field visits and warehouses: tasks, photos and a scanner on the phone.
How it works
A build every week
Follow the work on your own phone: TestFlight on iPhone, a test build on Android.
We handle publishing
We prepare the listing and screenshots and go through Apple's and Google's review. Every update is reviewed too.

Questions about apps
How much does a mobile app cost?
A simple app on one platform with no backend of its own is from $1,000, with a backend, accounts and push notifications from $2,500, the same on both iOS and Android from $3,500. The exact price is fixed in the contract after a free call. The stores charge separately for a developer account: Apple $99 a year, Google Play a one-time $25.
How long does it take?
A simple app takes 3–4 weeks, one with a backend 6–8 weeks, both platforms 8–10 weeks. Store review takes extra time, and its timing is out of our hands.
Do you build Android apps?
Yes: for Android, for iPhone or for both at once. Our own published products are on the App Store so far, so we can't show you one of our own apps on Google Play yet. You'll see working builds on your own phone every week.
Which platform should we start with?
The one your customers use. In Georgia about two thirds of smartphones run Android, so for a broad audience we start there or build both at once. We'll help you decide on the call.
Whose name will the app be published under?
Yours: we publish from your Apple and Google accounts, and you add us to the team. For a sole proprietor, the App Store seller is your personal name. To show a company name, you need a legal entity and a free D-U-N-S number. On Google Play, a new personal account must run a closed test with 12 people for 14 days before release. Organization accounts don't have this requirement.
Will the store take a cut of revenue?
Not for physical goods and real-world services: those are paid through BOG, TBC or Stripe. Digital content inside the app is paid through the store, whose commission is usually 10–30% and depends on Apple's and Google's terms.
Can an app be for staff only?
Yes. On iPhone it won't appear in App Store search, it installs from a direct link, and people sign in with a login. Apple approves this format on request, and the app goes through the usual review. On Android, the app can be published privately, for your organization only.
Can a store reject an app?
It can, Apple especially, if the app is just a website in a wrapper. So we plan features that only an app can offer from the start. If an app is sent back with comments, we fix them and resubmit.
Who updates the app after launch?
Bugs are fixed free for 30 days. After that, updates, including for new iOS and Android versions, go through a support plan or $25 per hour.
What do you need from us to start?
