WHAT'S INCLUDED

App Development, end-to-end.

FEATURE 01

Native + cross-platform

iOS (Swift), Android (Kotlin), or React Native and Flutter when speed matters more than platform-specific feel. We pick what fits your roadmap.

  • SwiftUI · Jetpack Compose
  • React Native · Flutter
  • TypeScript end-to-end
  • Offline-first architecture

FEATURE 02

Built for retention

A pretty app no one opens twice is a waste. We build for habits — onboarding, push, lifecycle messaging, in-app surveys — from day one.

  • Onboarding flows that convert
  • Push + lifecycle messaging
  • In-app analytics & experimentation
  • A/B testing infrastructure

FEATURE 03

Ship-ready operations

CI/CD, crash reporting, feature flags, observability — all set up before launch. Your engineers inherit something they actually want to work on.

  • Fastlane CI/CD pipelines
  • Sentry & Firebase Crashlytics
  • LaunchDarkly feature flags
  • Codebase that scales past 100k LOC

WHY NOVAQUBE

Senior team. Real craft.
Numbers that matter.

01

Senior engineers only

No juniors learning on your dime. Every app is built by senior engineers who have shipped at scale before.

02

Design-engineering loop

Designers and engineers ship together in the same Slack, the same Figma, the same repo. No handoffs, no telephone game.

03

Real performance focus

We optimize for cold-start time, frame rates, battery and binary size — not just whether it builds. The polish people feel without naming.

04

Post-launch support baked in

Apps need care after they ship. Bug fixes, OS updates, analytics reviews — we stay involved if you want us to.

PROCESS

How we work.

No mystery, no hand-waving. The same proven process, dialed for app development.

01

Discovery

One week. We learn the customer, the metric you actually care about, and the platform constraints.

02

Prototyping

Two weeks. Tappable prototype in users' hands before a line of production code is written.

03

Build

Six to twelve weeks of focused, two-week sprints. Working software shipped to TestFlight every Friday.

04

Launch

Submission, ASO, App Store creative, press kit. We do the unsexy parts so launch day is painless.

05

Grow

Optional retainer for monthly experiments, A/B tests, analytics reviews and feature roadmap.

QUESTIONS

App Development FAQ.

How long does a mobile app take to build?

Most go from kickoff to App Store in 10–14 weeks. The fastest we've done is 6 weeks for a single-feature MVP. Larger products with backend integrations and design systems run 4–6 months.

Native or cross-platform?

Depends on your roadmap. Native (Swift / Kotlin) for apps where platform-specific feel matters and you have engineering bandwidth long-term. React Native or Flutter for speed-to-market and small teams. We will tell you straight which one fits.

Do you do backends too?

Yes. Most apps need an API, auth, payments, push, analytics. We build full-stack — Node, Go, Postgres, Firebase, Supabase, depending on the shape of the problem.

What does iOS app development cost?

App development is priced bespoke based on what you need. We've built everything from a single-screen MVP for a side project to multi-platform apps with custom backends and design systems for established brands. Tell us what you have in mind and we'll send a clear, fixed quote — usually within 48 hours of a free scoping call. No hourly billing, no moving-target estimates.

Can you take over an existing app?

Often. We do code audits, refactor what's salvageable, rebuild what's not. About 30% of our app work is taking over existing codebases from previous teams.

Got something in mind?

Tell us about it. We come back within 24 hours, weekdays — with a thoughtful first take and a clear path forward.
