Mobile app development

Apps are more work than websites. They have very narrow design constraints. They need updates to keep pace with new devices and operating systems every year. You have to deal with app store distribution and users need to actually download and update them. Now multiply all that 2× for Apple and Android.

So why bother?

Because for certain problems, an app is the only real solution. For example:

• Anglers who need maps and regulations when they’ve got half a bar of signal.
• Eye doctors who need diagnostic tools in their pocket during consultations, not buried in a web browser or a heavy book.
• Outpatients who need to be notified to take their critical medications.
• Paramedics who need to rapidly find the nearest health facility with life-saving antidotes, antivenoms or blood products.

Apps work offline. They integrate with your phone’s cameras, GPS, and notifications. They’re a swipe and a tap away when you need them. For the right audience with the right needs, that’s worth the extra effort.

We make apps for iOS and Android. Then we stick around to maintain them—keeping them compatible with new devices and annual platform updates as Apple and Google inevitably change things.

We’re also specialists in developing app servers, so that you can easily push live content updates out to your apps, on either platform, without having to deal with app-store-related headaches.
