How we approach Mobile app development
One codebase or native?
Most apps work best with React Native or Flutter: faster to build, cheaper to maintain and the same on both platforms. We recommend native Swift or Kotlin only when your app truly needs it, and explain why.
Designed before it is built
You test a clickable prototype first, so changes happen when they are cheap and the app you launch is the one users want.
Store-ready from the start
We follow App Store and Google Play guidelines throughout, prepare listings and handle review, so launch day is not a surprise.
After launch
We monitor crashes and usage, keep the app current with new OS versions and keep shipping improvements.
How we work with Edinburgh clients
Time-zone overlap
The UK and our team in India share four to five working hours every day, so stand-ups, calls and quick decisions happen during your morning and early afternoon.
UK GDPR
We design products to UK GDPR principles: data minimisation, clear consent, access controls, encryption and data stored in the UK or EU when you need it. We sign NDAs and data processing agreements before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in British pounds (GBP) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Industries we work with in Edinburgh
Edinburgh and Glasgow fintech and SaaS companies work with us for senior engineering capacity on web, mobile and AI products, built with UK GDPR in mind.
