Our mobile app essentials

When building mobile applications, we make sure they adhere to the highest quality, performance, and security standards.

Data privacy and security
We safeguard data transfer, apply network security measures, follow industry-specific standards and regulations (HIPAA, GDPR, etc.), and employ MDM/MAM controls.

Personalization
We create apps that provide exceptional and personalized experiences with features like recommendation engines and targeted notifications.

Compliance
Relying on hands-on experience with international industry-specific standards and regulations (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOC 2, etc.), we ensure that both the development process and the mobile application fully comply with the required regulations.

User experience
We take a user-centered approach when designing mobile apps. Starting from the first stages of application mockups and prototype design, we build easy-to-navigate apps with intuitive and friendly user interfaces.

Interoperability
Utilizing various APIs, connectors, and protocols, we make mobile apps communicate seamlessly with third-party integrations regardless of the platform or operating system.

Performance
We build high-performing and fast-loading mobile apps by creating high-quality code, optimizing client-server interactions, and ensuring adequate caching.

Our mobile app essentials

Mobile app development costs

The cost of building mobile applications, excluding back-end development, varies greatly from $10,000 to $100,000+. Moreover, it can be hard to accurately predict expenditures upfront due to various cost factors.

Functionality and features
The application’s logic, the number of features, and their complexity significantly determine the final cost. Also, companies need to remember that some functionality is complex and expensive to develop, for example, some highly custom or innovative features.
Platform
Building native applications for both Android and iOS requires two separate teams and higher costs, whereas cross-platform, multiplatform-mobile or hybrid apps will incur fewer expenses.
APIs
If you integrate your mobile app with various third-party solutions, developing backend APIs or licensing API integrations (payment gateways, social media integration, mapping services, analytics, etc.) will drive additional costs.
App design
Developing a mobile application with superb usability requires preliminary UX research and careful prototyping. In addition, excellent user experience and intricate and visually rich design with animations and branding elements require more investments than an app built with ready-made UI templates.
Team
Specialists involved in the development process, their number, qualifications, and location also determine project costs. A typical mobile app development team will include a project manager, developers, QA engineers, and UI/UX designers.

Benefits of mobile app development for your business

Competitive advantage

Depending on your domain, a mobile application with a unique design and cutting-edge features can help you stand out from your competitors. By providing a superior user experience and meeting the evolving needs of your customers, you can differentiate your business and attract new target audiences.

Increased brand awareness

A mobile application helps boost your brand visibility and recognition through direct brand exposure, more frequent interactions with your business, push notifications, and app store presence.

Added value to users

Your mobile application is a single point of access to personalized discounts, gifts, and special offers, which makes your business easier to interact with, increasing customer loyalty. In addition, by developing a dedicated mobile application, you can digitalize your loyalty program, thus saving your clients the trouble of carrying a plethora of plastic cards.

Increased user engagement

A mobile application allows users to interact with your company (provide feedback or contact customer support) anytime, anywhere. Personalized push notifications, in-app messaging, gamification elements, and offline access also help companies attract clients to their products or services.

A direct marketing channel

Creating a mobile application allows you to communicate directly with each customer through their screens. Targeted content and a single push notification with a personalized discount offer are way more efficient than an outdoor banner in the street.

Analytics and insights

Mobile apps help you gather valuable insights, track user behavior, preferences, and interactions, and, using these insights, make more data-driven decisions on marketing strategies.

Mobile app development FAQs

How to choose between native, multiplatform-mobile, cross-platform, hybrid, and progressive web applications?

The choice of a mobile application platform greatly depends on your business objectives and the problems you need to solve. Therefore, we advise you to conduct research, study your competitors and target audience, and create a profile for your future application, taking into consideration the following factors:

  • the user experience you want to provide
  • features your mobile app should have and their complexity
  • your target platform: iOS, Android, or both
  • your budget and how fast you need to get your app to the market

How long will mobile application development take, and how can I reduce time-to-market?

Mobile application development can take 3-9 months from concept outline to market release. The duration primarily depends on the complexity of your future application and the availability of technical and human resources. To speed up the software development process, Itransition follows the Agile methodology and DevOps best practices testing the app in parallel with the development and integrating testing activities into CI/CD pipeline. We can also create an MVP within 1-3 months, prioritizing the core app features and then adding the rest of the functionality.

Should I outsource mobile app development or do it in-house?

Using an in-house development team or outsourcing to a third party has pros and cons. Developing a mobile application with your internal resources allows for better control over the process and easier team management and communication. Still, hiring and retaining a team of professionals will require considerable investments. Although outsourcing poses some vendor-related and security risks, choosing a reliable vendor can significantly reduce your project expenses and help you release the app much faster. Some businesses opt for a hybrid model, combining in-house project management with outsourced development teams.
