Designers implementing app store guidelines

App Design

We design your mobile app to be both on-brand and to have an intuitive user interface. Our designs are optimised for how the app is going to be used and on what devices it will be deployed – phone, tablet or both. We consider app store guidelines and ensure the UI complies, to give a great user experience and improve store acceptance.

App Development – iOS and Android

Our experienced developers code your mobile app utilising the Microsoft MAUI cross-platform system – saving time compared to other approaches, as code can be re-used for Apple and Android versions of the app. For larger projects, we work using an agile methodology – allowing functionality to evolve during development.

App Testing, Launch & Support

We help to test your app – making it available in Apple TestFlight and Google internal testing. When ready we manage the launch of your app – helping with the app store listing and submission. Once approved and in use, we offer a variety of packages to provide on-going maintenance and support.

Mobile App Experience

Our experience covers the design & development of mobile and tablet apps across a number of sectors, for businesses in Suffolk and larger clients in London. This includes apps for events, transportation, guest check-in & management and wellness. Types of functionality include: push notifications, GPS & maps, in-app purchases and bespoke integrations.

Paris 2024 Event App

A London-based multinational sports marketing agency required us to lead the design and build of an event app for a corporate sponsor of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

How Our App Created a Great Experience

iTRACK Tablet App

A London-based multinational sports marketing agency commissioned us to rewrite an existing legacy Android-only tablet app. This handles the digital check-in of guests as part of corporate hospitality offerings at sports events, including the Olympics.

“The team at F2B Digital recently redeveloped a mobile app for us, using a cross-platform framework. They understood our requirements, were professional and communicated well. We particularly appreciated their own suggestions for how to improve the app.”

Got an Idea for a Mobile App and Want to Talk Further?

Our Process To Create Your Exceptional App

1. Feasibility & Discovery

We discuss your idea/requirements and help to detail outline functionality. We propose a high-level approach and provide ballpark costs.

For most apps, the next step is a discovery session – to discuss your mobile app and define the detailed functionality – helping by suggesting ideas and explaining technical jargon. We then create a formal proposal.

2. Design and Development

The design includes wireframe designs, along with detailed designs for key screens.

Development uses modern architecture principles and coding to a high standard. We ensure our apps comply with both Apple and Android development guidelines.

3. QA, Testing and Store Submission

We test on simulators and popular real-world devices such as iPhones and the latest Android phones. Apps are also made available for private testing by the client.

We then perform the app store submission and help advise you on launching and publicising your mobile app.

4. On-going Support

Once a mobile app is developed, the majority need on-going amends and updates. We offer mobile app maintenance plans for this.

Most apps are reliant on cloud services to store data and we provide high-quality hosting for this.

Pricing – How Much Does An App Cost?

The cost to develop a mobile app varies depending on the amount of functionality – more functionality equates to higher cost. The number of platforms and devices to be supported (e.g. Android, iOS, mobile, tablet) also affects the cost. As a guide, the design & development cost starts from around £6,000 for a simple app. Many apps also require 3rd party integrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to develop an app?

The time it takes to design, develop, test and launch a mobile app varies depending on how complex it is. As a rough guide, most apps we develop take between 2 to 6 months.

Should my app be for Android or iOS or both?

iPhones and Android phones are both very popular, so it’s best to target your app on both platforms. Luckily the technology we use is cross-platform, meaning the same code can be re-used, which saves cost.

I have an existing app, can you take over maintenance?

If you have an existing app and it’s built using our technology platform (Microsoft MAUI) we can take over maintenance. If your app was built with a different technology, it’s unlikely we can take over – depending on the age it may be worth considering getting it redeveloped.

How do I choose the right app development company near me?

Look for a company with proven experience, relevant certifications such as ISO 9001 and ISO 27001, and a collaborative, transparent working style. We provide tailored solutions to help bring your app idea to life successfully.

Can you work collaboratively with my internal team?

Yes, we sometimes work together collaboratively with internal development teams from larger companies. We work as an extension to your team – adding additional capacity and specialised skills.

Are you a specialist development company for both iOS and Android?

Yes, we function as both an iOS mobile app development company and an android applications development company. Our Microsoft MAUI cross-platform approach allows us to efficiently deliver apps for both iOS and Android, whilst maintaining cost-effectiveness for our clients.
