Mobile App Development

Mobile products connected to your customers, operations and existing systems.

We design and build mobile apps that work with the rest of your business: your back end, your data and the tools your team already uses.

This service fits when…

  • Your customers need an app, not just a website.
  • Staff in the field need tools that work on their phones.
  • You have a web product and need a mobile companion to it.
  • An existing app needs to be rebuilt or brought up to date.

Problems we solve

From the problem to what we build.

  1. Customers expect to do things on their phone.

    What we build: A mobile app designed around the few tasks they do most often.

  2. The app and your systems are out of sync.

    What we build: Connections to your back end and APIs, so data is the same everywhere.

  3. Building for iOS and Android separately is slow.

    What we build: Cross-platform apps with React Native, or native iOS with Swift where it matters.

  4. Releases are stressful and updates are rare.

    What we build: Testing, App Store release help and a maintenance routine after launch.

    Release

    App Store submission help, then maintenance and updates.

  • A written update and demo every week
  • One accountable lead
  • Work in your repositories
  • Code and IP owned by you

Ways to start

  • Discovery sprint

    Turning an idea or a problem into a clear plan before committing to a build.

    A short, fixed-scope phase of workshops, research and technical planning with your team.

    You get

    • Agreed scope and priorities
    • Prototype or technical plan
    • Estimate for the next step
  • MVP delivery

    Getting a first release in front of real users.

    A defined first release, designed, built and launched against an agreed scope.

    You get

    • Designed and tested product
    • Production deployment
    • Code and IP in your accounts
  • Ongoing product team

    Products that need steady improvement after launch.

    A dedicated Corexlab team working through your roadmap, with priorities agreed each cycle.

    You get

Cost and timeline

What shapes the estimate.

  • Platforms

    iOS only, or iOS and Android together.

  • Device features

    Offline use, camera, location or push notifications.

  • Back-end work

    Whether the APIs the app needs already exist or have to be built.

  • Release and review

    Store requirements, and how often you want to ship updates.

  • Design depth

    Standard platform patterns, or a fully custom interface.

A scoping call turns these into a real estimate for your project.

FAQ

Common questions.

React Native or native iOS?

React Native gives you iOS and Android from one codebase. Native iOS makes sense when the app depends heavily on device features or Apple-specific experiences. We'll recommend one based on your product.

Can you build the back end too?

Yes. We build or extend the APIs and services the app needs.

Do you handle the App Store submission?

We help prepare and submit the app, and deal with review feedback. The developer accounts stay in your name.

Do we own the app and the code?

Yes. The code, designs and IP are yours, and the repositories live in your accounts.
