What goes into a good app

Apps people keep using

An app earns a place on someone's home screen by doing one job well, anywhere, and staying in step with the systems behind it.

Life of an app

Phones update every year and users expect the app to keep up. We plan for the second half from the start.

Before launch

  1. 1User journeys agreed
  2. 2Tappable designs
  3. 3Weekly test builds
  4. 4Real-device testing
App store release

After launch

  1. 1OS and device updates
  2. 2Crash and usage monitoring
  3. 3Feature releases
  4. 4Backend kept in step
The first decision

Native, cross-platform or web?

We recommend the one that fits your users and budget, not the one we like building.

  • Native

    Fits when Heavy use of the camera, sensors or background work, where every detail of the platform matters.

    Trade-off Two codebases to build and keep up.

    SwiftKotlin

  • Cross-platform

    usual pick

    Fits when Most business apps: one codebase for iOS and Android, still installed from the stores.

    Trade-off Occasional native work for edge cases.

    React Native

  • Web app (PWA)

    Fits when Occasional use, fast rollout, or users you would rather not send to an app store.

    Trade-off Limited device access and notifications on iOS.
