Choosing
Should you choose cross-platform or native development?
Cross-platform development suits an app that needs to reach people on both iPhone and Android without maintaining separate codebases. We usually build with React Native, which uses JavaScript or TypeScript and renders each platform’s own interface components. Web developers can contribute, and some logic can be shared with a React web app. We use native modules when a feature needs them.
Native development suits an app that depends on deep device features. It gives you a different route from a shared codebase, with the choice tied to what the app actually needs to do. We discuss those needs before deciding how to build, so the platform choice follows the scope you agree with us.
Flutter is another cross-platform option. It is written in Dart and draws its own interface, which suits a heavily branded design that should look identical on both platforms. That choice also means working in Dart, so consider who will maintain the app and how much custom interface work you need before settling on it.
Local
What Dundee organisations need from an app
Dundee is a retail destination for North East Scotland. If you run a shop or restaurant serving repeat customers, an app can put reordering, loyalty and saved payment details close to hand. Plan the checkout carefully, and give people a reason to accept notifications at a useful point in the order flow.
Dundee’s technology, medicine and life sciences research and development organisations may have teams carrying out work away from the office. Where a job involves inspections or maintenance, staff need forms, photos, signatures and location recorded on the device, with information synced back when signal returns.
NHS Tayside, Dundee City Council and the University of Dundee are among the city’s largest employers. If your organisation already has a web platform that people use frequently, an app can reuse their accounts and data through the same backend, giving users access to familiar information on their phone.
How it runs
How your app project runs with us
We work remotely over video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. India is 5h30m ahead of the UK, or 4h30m during British Summer Time, from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. The shared board keeps feedback and decisions visible across that difference, so you do not have to save every point for a call.
- 01
Discover
We learn about your business, audience and goals, then agree the scope with you.
- 02
Design
We prepare iOS and Android screens and refine them with your feedback before writing code.
- 03
Test on your phone
We send test builds through TestFlight on iPhone and Google Play testing tracks. You can try the flows in real use and share feedback.
- 04
Submit
We handle the listings, submission and review under your developer accounts. If the app has a login, prepare a working demo account and keep the backend live for review.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
Start with a short list of the tasks people need to complete in the first release, in the order they will do them.
- List the website, booking system, CRM or other systems the app needs to connect to; note their APIs and who holds admin access.
- Prepare a privacy policy that matches the data the app collects, for its store listing and the app itself.
- Check your Google Play account type. New personal accounts need a closed test before production release.
- Decide what people can use before signing in, especially if the app has no significant account-based features.
- Note any analytics or advertising SDKs you expect to use, so their data collection is covered in Google Play’s Data safety form.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and timeline
The scope determines how much design, development and testing work is needed.
User roles
Customers, drivers and staff each need their own screens and permissions, even with a shared backend.
Integrations
A payment gateway, booking system or hardware connection needs setup, testing and failure handling.
Interface
Custom animation, extra languages and tablet layouts add design and testing across screens.
Existing systems
A documented backend API can reduce the work; a new backend and admin panel need to be built alongside the app.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Dundee
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to develop an app?
There is no single fixed price. The work depends on the backend and data your app needs, whether deep device features call for separate native codebases, and whether users can post content that needs moderation. We agree the scope with you before the build, so these choices can be discussed against the tasks the app must support.
How should I choose an app development company?
Choose a team that makes ownership and system access clear. Ask who will hold the developer accounts, signing access and code repository, and whether the app can share a backend with your website and admin tools. Keeping those assets in your business’s name makes the app easier to move later.
What is included beyond the app screens?
An app project often includes a backend and an admin panel as well as the phone app. Staff may need to edit content, look up customers, issue refunds or block abusive accounts. For notifications, we set up a sending service, audience rules and in-app settings for the categories people want to switch off.
Will I own the app and its store accounts?
Yes. You own your code, content and domain, with no lock-in, and we publish under your developer accounts. If your app allows account creation, we also need to plan deletion: Apple requires an in-app way to start it, while Google Play also requires a web link for deletion requests.
What happens after the app launches?
Plan for maintenance and measurement after release. Google Play requires updates to target a recent Android API level. Some JavaScript and content fixes can use an over-the-air update, while native code changes need a store release. Track returning users, drop-off in the main task and the crash-free rate to assess each release.
