What is mobile app development?
Mobile app development is designing, building and publishing apps for iPhone and Android phones. Most business apps today use React Native, which shares one codebase across iOS and Android. Swift is used for fully native iOS apps that need deep Apple features. MGT builds both, plus the back end and admin tools that keep the app running.
The problem
A good app starts with one clear job
Your idea needs both iOS and Android
Building two separate apps doubles the cost and the bugs.
Staff work away from a desk
They need tasks, forms and customer details on their phone.
Customers expect an app
Ordering, booking or tracking by phone is now the norm.
The app is only half the work
It also needs a back end, admin panel, notifications and updates.
What we build
Apps we build
Ordering and delivery apps
Local ordering, group buying and delivery with customer, supplier and driver roles.
Booking apps
Appointments and services booked in a few taps, with reminders.
Business directories
Searchable listings with maps, reviews and contact options.
Healthcare and wellness apps
Routines, records and reminders, built with privacy in mind.
Subscription and micro-SaaS apps
Focused apps with accounts, in-app purchases and subscriptions.
IoT and device apps
Bluetooth pairing, live readings and remote control for connected devices.
Back end and admin panel
APIs, databases and admin tools to run the service behind the app.

Frequently asked questions
Should we build with React Native or native Swift?
Most business apps are best with React Native because one codebase covers iOS and Android. We recommend Swift when the app needs deep iPhone features or the best possible performance.
How long does it take to build a mobile app?
A first release with the core feature usually takes 8 to 12 weeks, including testing and app store submission.
How much does a mobile app cost?
It depends on features, user roles and the back end. After a short call we give you a fixed quote for the first release.
Do you publish the app to the App Store and Google Play?
Yes. We prepare and submit the app under your developer accounts, and handle review feedback.
Do you build the back end too?
Yes. We build the APIs, database and admin panel your app needs.
What happens after launch?
We agree a plan for updates, OS changes and new features, so the app keeps working as phones change.
What should your app help people do?
Tell us who the app is for and the one thing they need to get done. We'll reply with how we'd build the first release.
