Our Custom Mobile App Development Process

We ensure a straightforward and effective process to achieve the best results.

Initial Discussion

We’ll talk about your app idea, goals, timelines, and costs. Once we reach an agreement, we’ll sign contracts and get started.

Step 1

Discovery:

We collaborate with you and stakeholders to translate your goals into actionable steps.

Step 2

Design:

Our designers will create the app's look and functionality. After any necessary adjustments, we’ll move on to development.

Step 3

Development:

We’ll code the app and set up systems, providing regular updates and demonstrations along the way.

Step 4

Testing:

Our team conducts thorough tests to ensure everything runs smoothly. We’ll address any issues and gather your feedback.

Step 5

Launch

We’ll prepare your app for launch on the App Store and Google Play.

Step 6

Ongoing Support

After launch, we provide continuous support, adding new features and improvements as needed.

Step 7

Initiation

In the initial meetings, we discuss the viability of your idea and the high-level goals. Then we come back to you with a proposed project plan. Any negotiations of the budgets and timelines may take place. Once both our parties are agreed, contracts are signed and a dedicated expert team is assembled to start the project!

Discovery

We hold workshops and interviews with you and any other stakeholders who are involved in the project to refine the high-level goals down to measurable business requirements.

Design

Our skilled UI/UX designers come up with the initial drafts of the look and feel of your app. Few iterations of these wireframes may happen to get it just right. On the engineering side, our developers work on the overall architecture and the design of the app solution.

Development

We build the solution by coding and setting up any related services and systems. The development methodology (waterfall or agile) is chosen based on how you want to launch the app. We hold weekly demos to show you the progress.

Testing

The finished product is put through rigorous testing by our team of qualified testers. The development team works hand in hand to resolve any bugs as soon as possible. Finally stable versions of the app are released to you (and a select few external users of your choosing) for user acceptance testing.

Deployment

Moment of truth! We prepare the App Store/Play Store pages and push the final version to it. You may choose whether you want to do a gradual, soft launch or if you want to make a big splash, a big bang launch!

Maintenance

After the warranty period, you may choose to continue to work with us to build new features, optimize and upgrade the codebase as time goes on.

FAQs for Mobile App Development in Champaign-Urbana

    • Ongoing maintenance is provided as necessary.
      If you already have an app, we can enhance or update it to better serve your business in Champaign-Urbana.

The cost of developing a mobile app varies based on several factors, including:

    • The complexity and design of the app.
    • Backend services required.
    • The chosen platform (iOS, Android, or both).
    • The size of the development team and the time taken for completion.

Here are a few strategies to keep expenses lower:

    • Concentrate on essential features for the initial version.

    • Launch an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) and enhance it based on user feedback.
      We’ll work closely with you to find the best approach for managing costs effectively for your business.

Native apps provide several benefits, such as:

    • Improved performance and better integration with device features.
    • Access to advanced capabilities like AI and augmented reality (AR).
    • The ability to function offline.

    • Competitive advantages in your industry.
      If these advantages resonate with your business goals, investing in a custom app could be a smart move.

Our expertise lies in developing business and consumer-facing applications. Unfortunately, mobile game development isn’t our focus.

Absolutely! We’re here to improve and update your current app, ensuring it meets the evolving needs of your users.

We leverage modern technologies such as React Native, Flutter, Swift, and Kotlin to ensure your app is built to the highest standards.

Quality assurance is a top priority. We conduct thorough testing at every stage of development to identify and resolve any issues before launch.
