Choosing
Should you build a native or cross-platform app?
Start with what people need to do in the app. Cross-platform development suits products built around accounts, forms, lists, maps, bookings, payments or content. We usually use React Native, sharing a codebase across iOS and Android and adding native modules where a feature needs them. When the app needs deep device features, we go native.
Flutter is another cross-platform option. It uses Dart and draws its own interface, which suits a heavily branded design that should look identical across both platforms. Consider the language your future development team will work in as well as the appearance of the screens.
A progressive web app is worth considering for a staff tool: it skips store review, although it will not appear in app stores unless packaged for them. On an iPhone, it can only request notification permission after being added to the Home Screen. We learn your goals and audience with you, then agree a scope that fits the work you need done.
Local
What Montana businesses need from an app
Agriculture, including ranching and cereal grain farming, is central to Montana's economy. If your agricultural business already has a web platform that customers use frequently, an app can reuse the accounts and data behind it. That gives customers access to the same information on their phones without creating a separate account system.
Health care is a significant part of the state's economy. A Montana clinic with appointments needs a booking flow, reminders and payments for patients, alongside a staff view of the day's schedule. Those staff screens need attention during scoping as well as the patient-facing ones.
Tourism is a growing sector in Montana. Restaurants serving repeat customers can use an app for reordering, loyalty and saved payment details, with a fast checkout and notifications sent at a useful moment.
Rules
What a US app project has to handle
For a state or local government app, the US accessibility rule requires WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We design the iOS and Android screens against that standard, so accessibility is part of the screen work from the outset. If you manage a government service, bring the task flows people need to complete: those flows give the design work a practical starting point.
How it runs
How an app project runs with us
We work remotely from India using video calls, WhatsApp and a shared project board. India is ahead of the mainland US, and the gap changes with daylight saving time. The shared board gives you a place to leave feedback and see the work between calls, so decisions do not all have to happen live.
- 01
Discover
We learn about your business, audience and goals, then agree the scope with you. Bring the main task you want customers or staff to complete.
- 02
Design
We prepare screens for iOS and Android and refine them with your feedback before writing code. Tell us where a flow does not match the way your business works.
- 03
Test the prototype
Put the clickable design in front of a few customers or staff. Their feedback lets you change a screen before it becomes more costly to alter in the build.
- 04
Build
We develop the agreed app in React Native and add native modules where needed. Check the working flows against the scope you agreed with us.
- 05
Launch
We prepare the App Store and Google Play listings, handle submission and release, and work with you on the details shown to prospective users.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
A few practical details help us discuss the first release.
- List what users must do, in the order they will do it.
- Note the website, booking system, CRM or payment provider involved, their APIs and who holds admin access.
- Check who can take part in a closed test if you have a new personal Google Play developer account.
- Have a privacy policy that reflects the data the app will collect.
- If users can create accounts, plan a web link for account-deletion requests as well as the in-app path.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and work involved?
The scope determines how much design, backend and testing work the app needs.
User types
Customers, drivers and staff each need their own screens and permissions, even when they share a backend.
Live features
Tracking, chat and presence need persistent connections and more backend work than screens that load data on request.
Screen design
Custom animation, additional languages and tablet layouts add design and testing across screens.
User content
Posts or other contributed material need filtering, reporting and blocking tools, plus published contact details.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid when building an app
Wrapping a website in an app shell
Give people useful app functionality; a repackaged site risks store rejection.
Demanding sign-up too soon
Let people use an app without logging in when it has no significant account-based features.
Requesting notifications immediately
Ask when the benefit is clear, such as after an order. Android users must allow notifications before they are sent.
Adding an analytics or advertising SDK without updating privacy answers: Include data collected by third-party SDKs in the Google Play Data safety form.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Montana
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to develop an app?
There is no fixed price. A documented existing backend can reduce the work; building a backend and admin panel from scratch adds a substantial part of the project. Notifications also need a sending service, rules for recipients and timing, and settings that let users switch categories off. Agree those requirements when defining the scope.
How do I choose an app development company?
Choose a team that can explain how the app will fit the systems you already use. Ask who will design and build it, and how customer data will be managed. We can build a shared backend for your app, website and admin tools, so customer accounts and data live in one place.
What is included in an app build?
An app project usually includes the phone app, a backend and an admin panel. The admin panel gives staff ways to edit content, look up customers, issue refunds and block abusive accounts. Analytics and crash reporting belong in the first release too, so you can see screen usage, drop-off points and device crashes.
Will I own the app and its accounts?
You own your code, content and domain, with no lock-in. We handle store listings, submission and review under your own developer accounts. That account arrangement is worth settling before submission, so the listings are associated with your business rather than needing to be moved later.
What support does an app need after launch?
Plan for bug fixes, operating-system updates and new features after launch. Some JavaScript and content fixes can go out through an over-the-air tool; native code changes and new permissions still need a store release. Google Play also requires apps and updates to target a recent Android API level.
What do I need to provide for store submission?
If your app has a login, provide a working demo account and a live backend for Apple to review. Leave room in the launch plan for fixes and resubmission if needed. For account creation, the app must also let users start deleting their account inside it; deactivation alone is insufficient.
