Mobile Apps Built Around Your Business
Turn your idea into a practical mobile app your customers or team can actually use.
From simple business apps to booking systems, customer portals, membership apps and more advanced solutions, we plan and build mobile apps around what your business really needs.
What Is Mobile App Development?
Mobile app development is the process of creating an app people can use on their smartphone or tablet.
Your app can be built for Android, iPhone or both, depending on your requirements and chosen package.
A good mobile app should do more than simply copy your website. It should make something easier for your customers, members or team.
That could mean booking an appointment, accessing content, managing an account, making a payment, receiving notifications or using one of your services.
Your Mobile App Can Include:
Every app is different. We help you choose the features that have a genuine purpose for your business and your users.

- Bookings & appointments
- User accounts
- Push notifications
- Payment integration
- Membership access
- Content libraries

- Contact forms
- Business tools
- Admin dashboards
- API integrations

Does Your Business Actually Need an App?
Not every business needs a mobile app.
If a normal website can do everything your customers need, an app may not be worth the additional investment.
A mobile app makes more sense when customers need to interact with your business regularly. They may need to make bookings, access content, receive notifications, manage an account, make purchases or regularly use one of your services.
Our job isn't to sell you an app simply because apps sound impressive. It's to work out whether an app could genuinely make your business easier for your customers, staff or members to use.
A Mobile App Can Help You:
Give customers quick access to your services
Make bookings and appointments easier
Improve customer convenience and experience
Send useful updates, reminders and notifications
Give members or customers access to private content
Increase repeat interaction with your business
Types of Apps We Can Build
We do not build apps just for the sake of having an app. Every project should solve a real problem, make something easier, or give customers and staff a better way to interact with your business.

Add Extra Features When You Need Them
Your app does not need to include everything from day one. Start with the features your business actually needs and add extra functionality where it makes sense.
Some features may already be included in your chosen package. These add-ons are available when you need functionality beyond what your package includes.

From Your App Idea to Launch
You do not need to understand the technical side of app development. We guide you through each stage and keep the process clear from the initial idea through to testing and launch.
Discovery
We start by understanding your business, your app idea, who will use it and what you want the app to help them do.
Scope & Planning
We agree the features, app structure, platforms and functionality required so you know what is being built before development begins.
Design & User Journey
We plan how people will move through your app, what they will see and how important actions should work, while applying your business branding.
App Development
Once the structure and requirements are agreed, we build your app and add the features and integrations included within your project.
Testing & Review
We test the app and give you the opportunity to review the project. Any agreed revisions included within your package are then completed.
Launch & Support
Once approved, we prepare your app for launch and provide the submission assistance and launch support included within your chosen package.

More Help. Less Hype.
We do not believe every business needs a mobile app. If a website or another solution would make more sense for what you are trying to achieve, we will tell you.
If an app is the right solution, we will help you work out what it needs to do, which features matter and the most practical way to build it.
Secure Your Project Slot Before Monthly Spaces Are Filled
Mobile app projects require proper planning, development and testing. To give each project the attention it needs, we only accept a limited number of new app development projects each month.
Once the available spaces are taken, new projects move to the next available development slot.
For our standard app packages, you can secure your project with 50% upfront and pay the remaining 50% when the agreed development work is complete.
Simple Payment Structure
Once your app requirements and project scope have been agreed, our standard packages use a straightforward two-stage payment structure.
Frequently Asked Questions
From pricing and development times to App Store submission and ongoing support, here are answers to some of the most common questions about our mobile app development service.
How much does a mobile app cost?
Our Starter Mobile App begins from £597, Growth from £1,197, Pro from £2,497 and advanced Premium projects from £4,997.
The final price depends on the features, number of screens, platforms, integrations and custom development required. We agree the project scope and price with you before development begins.
How long does it take to build a mobile app?
It depends on the complexity of your project. A simple app may take a few weeks, while an advanced app containing custom functionality, databases and integrations can take considerably longer.
Once we understand what you want to build, we will give you an estimated development timeframe.
Will my app work on Android and iPhone?
It can. Our Starter package covers one platform — Android or iOS — while our Growth, Pro and Premium packages can include both Android and iOS.
Can you turn my existing website into an app?
In many cases, yes. However, we first look at whether turning your website into an app would provide a genuine benefit to your customers.
Sometimes your existing website can provide the starting point, while other projects are better suited to a more purpose-built mobile app.
Do I need technical knowledge?
No. You tell us what you want your app to help your customers, members or team do. We handle the technical side and explain the project in plain English.
What if I only have an app idea?
That is completely fine. You do not need to arrive with technical specifications, wireframes or a finished development plan.
Our App Planning & Discovery service costs £197 and helps turn your idea into a practical development plan. If you then proceed with your mobile app development project, the £197 discovery fee is deducted from your development price.
Can my app include bookings and appointments?
Yes. We can connect suitable existing booking or appointment systems to your app. More advanced custom booking functionality can also be discussed where required.
Can my app take payments?
Yes. Suitable payment services can be integrated depending on what your app sells and how the payment process needs to work.
Payment processing charges and any third-party service fees are separate unless specifically included within your quotation.
Can users create accounts and log in?
Yes. User registration, login, profiles, customer accounts and member-only areas can be included in suitable packages or added as additional functionality.
Can my app send push notifications?
Yes. Push notifications can be used for suitable reminders, updates, announcements and other useful communication with app users.
Can you connect my app to software we already use?
Potentially, yes. If the software or platform provides a suitable API or integration method, we can investigate connecting it to your mobile app.
We will confirm compatibility, requirements and any additional development cost before starting the integration.
Will you publish my app on the Apple App Store and Google Play?
App Store submission assistance is included with selected packages and is also available as an additional service.
Apple and Google control their respective app stores and make the final decision about whether an application is accepted. Developer accounts, App Store charges and other third-party fees are separate unless specifically included in your quotation.
Can you guarantee Apple or Google will approve my app?
No developer can control the final approval decision made by Apple or Google. We can build and prepare your app with the relevant requirements in mind and assist with submission, but final approval remains with the relevant App Store.
Are there any costs outside the development price?
There can be. Depending on your app, third-party costs could include developer accounts, hosting, databases, payment processing, APIs, software subscriptions and other external services.
Where we know additional services will be required, we will explain them before development begins.
Who owns my mobile app?
Ownership, source code, licences, third-party components and usage rights are confirmed within your project agreement because this can depend on the technology and external services used to build the app.
We will make this clear before development begins so you understand exactly what is included.
Can my app be updated or expanded later?
Yes. Your app can potentially grow with your business. New screens, features, integrations and other improvements can be added later, subject to the technology used and the development work required.
Do you offer ongoing app maintenance and support?
Yes. Mobile operating systems, third-party services and integrations change over time, so ongoing maintenance can be important.
Our Mobile App Care service starts from £49 per month, with higher-level support available for apps requiring more regular maintenance or development work.
How do payments for development work?
Our standard mobile app packages use a simple payment structure: 50% upfront to secure your project and begin development, with the remaining 50% due when the agreed development work is complete.
Larger or more complex custom projects may use different payment milestones, which will be agreed with you before development begins.
