How do I choose between native and cross-platform development?

Start with your users, budget and goals. If most users are on one platform, building natively for it first is often best. Native iOS and Android apps give the best performance and platform integration but cost more, because each platform has its own codebase. Cross-platform frameworks like Flutter reach both platforms from one codebase, so they are usually faster and more budget-friendly. Security needs and how the app must integrate with your existing systems also matter; we help you weigh these in discovery.

Why choose Equitysoft for mobile app development?

We build custom apps for both Android and iOS, end to end, from design to deployment and long-term support. As an AI and data company, we can add AI features such as chatbots, personalization and recognition where they help users. Since 2018 we have delivered 680+ projects for 310+ clients, we are ISO 27001 certified, and you own the code, data and IP.

How long does it take to build a custom mobile app?

It depends on the platform, the app's complexity, design requirements, features and testing needs. Share your requirements and we will give you a detailed timeline.

I already have a website. Can you build an app for it?

Yes. We can build a mobile app that integrates with your existing website and backend, whether you need e-commerce, account features or something custom, and keep it consistent with your brand.

How can I track progress if I outsource to Equitysoft?

You get a dedicated project manager, regular updates on milestones, and access to our project management tools so you can follow progress in real time.

Can you complete an app another team started?

Yes. We review the existing code and architecture, tell you plainly what can be kept and what needs fixing, and then continue development with the same project management and reporting as any new build.

How much does a mobile app cost to build?

There is no honest single figure, because cost follows scope. The main drivers are how many platforms you launch on, how many user types the app serves (for example customer, provider and admin), the backend and integrations it needs, the depth of custom design, and any compliance work for payments or health data. After a short discovery we give a fixed quote for a defined scope, or a monthly team cost if your roadmap is still changing.

Who owns the app and its store listings?

You do. The code lives in your repositories, and we publish to the App Store and Google Play under your own developer accounts, so the listing, reviews and revenue stay with your business if you ever change suppliers.

How do you keep user data secure in a mobile app?

We store tokens and sensitive values in the platform's secure storage, encrypt traffic, keep secrets out of the app bundle, apply role-based access on the server and test against common mobile risks such as those in the OWASP Mobile Top 10. Where personal data is involved we design consent and data deletion into the app from the start, in line with privacy laws such as GDPR and CCPA where they apply.

What happens when Apple or Google release a new OS version?

Each year both platforms change APIs, permissions and store requirements. Under a support plan we test your app against the beta releases, update SDKs and target versions, and ship a compatible build before the new OS reaches most users.

§ Who it's for

Teams we build mobile apps for

We design, build and maintain mobile apps for iOS and Android, either natively or with Flutter and React Native when one codebase for both platforms makes more sense. Where it helps users, we add AI features such as chatbots, personalization and image or voice recognition. Apps connect to your existing systems and are tested before release, and you own the code.

Founders validating an idea
You need a first version in users' hands quickly, without building features nobody has asked for yet. We scope a focused MVP, usually cross-platform, and plan the backend so it can grow with the product rather than being rewritten after launch.
Businesses adding an app to an existing service
You already have a website, booking system or store, and customers want it on their phone. We build the app around your current systems and APIs so data, accounts and orders stay in one place.
Product teams with an app that has stalled
Crashes, slow releases, outdated SDKs or a team that has moved on. We audit the code, fix what blocks releases, and then take on the roadmap or work alongside your developers.
Companies digitizing field or internal work
Timesheets, inspections, dispatch or approvals still run on paper or spreadsheets. We build internal apps with offline support, role-based access and a web admin panel for managers.

What you get

The right platform choice for your users, budget and timeline
Apps that work smoothly with your existing systems and website
AI features that make the app more useful, not more complicated
Fewer bugs at launch through manual and automated testing
A dedicated project manager and real-time visibility into progress
Full ownership of the code, with long-term support available

Best for an MVP or a clearly defined release. We agree scope, milestones and price after discovery, and changes go through a simple change request.
Dedicated app team
A product team of developers, a designer, QA and a project manager working on your roadmap month to month. Suits products that are still evolving.
Support and maintenance
Ongoing OS and SDK updates, bug fixes, monitoring and small improvements for apps already in the stores, including apps another team built.
