What our iOS application development services cover

We work as an iOS application development company across the whole life of an app. Working out what to build, building it, getting it approved by Apple, and keeping it there afterwards.

Custom iOS app development

Build for the customers who spend

Fewer people own iPhones than Android phones, but they spend far more in apps. Reaching them means building for Apple directly, not reusing an Android app. We build yours in Swift, Apple’s own language.

Offerings:
  • Native iPhone app development
  • iPad app development
  • Apple Watch and tvOS apps
  • iOS MVP development
  • Swift and SwiftUI builds

iOS UI/UX design

Design Apple users recognise

iPhone users can tell within seconds when an app was not made for their phone. It feels wrong to swipe and hard to find things. We follow Apple’s own design rules.

Offerings:
  • Human Interface Guidelines design
  • Wireframes and clickable prototypes
  • iPhone and iPad layouts
  • Design systems and components
  • Accessibility and VoiceOver testing

Enterprise iOS app development

Tools your staff will actually open

You give your field staff iPhones, then hand them software designed for a desktop. We build apps for your own team instead, private to your company and working without internet.

Offerings:
  • In-house app distribution
  • Apple Business Manager setup
  • MDM and device management
  • Role-based internal applications
  • Offline-first data capture

iOS app modernization: Objective-C to Swift

Fix an old app before it breaks

Older iPhone apps still make money and still need updates. The problem comes when the people who built it have left and nobody can open the project. We rebuild it in Swift, keeping what works.

Offerings:
  • Objective-C to Swift migration
  • UIKit to SwiftUI rebuilds
  • Deprecated API replacement
  • Xcode toolchain upgrades
  • Legacy codebase refactoring

iOS app integration and API development

Connect the app to the business

If the app cannot talk to your CRM or take card payments, it becomes one more place your data sits on its own. We connect it to the systems you already run.

Offerings:
  • REST and GraphQL API development
  • CRM and ERP integration
  • Apple Pay integration
  • CloudKit and Core Data
  • Third-party SDK integration

App store submission

Get past review the first time

Apple checks every app before it goes live and turns down anything that breaks its rules. Since 2024 that includes missing paperwork about the data your app collects. We check before sending.

Offerings:
  • App Store review preparation
  • Privacy manifest compliance
  • Rejection diagnosis and resubmission
  • TestFlight beta management
  • OS compatibility and guideline updates

Ship an iOS app Apple approves the first time

We help businesses scope, build, and ship iOS applications, then keep them current as Apple’s rules change.

Service Benefits

Why an iPhone app earns its budget

Apple’s platform gives a business a narrow device range, a trusted payment layer, and the users most willing to pay.

Reach the customers who spend

iOS is a minority of devices worldwide and a majority of app store revenue. If your buyers are in the US, UK, Japan, or Australia, they are disproportionately holding iPhones.

Design once for predictable hardware

A small, well-documented device range means less budget spent chasing compatibility and more spent on the product your customers came for.

Sell inside Apple’s payment rails

Apple Pay, in-app purchase, and subscriptions are already on the device and already trusted. Checkout friction stops being your problem.

Decide what ships next

The code and repositories are yours. You set the roadmap rather than waiting in somebody else’s queue.

Inherit the platform’s privacy reputation

Users grant permissions more readily where they believe they are protected. Handle data properly and that trust transfers to your app.

Keep the app in the store

An app pulled from the App Store earns nothing from the moment it disappears. Staying current on Apple’s guidelines protects a channel you have already paid to build.

Our Approach

Steps from idea to App Store

iOS projects rarely fail at the coding stage. They fail at review, a week before a launch date that was announced to customers. We work in a sequence that puts that risk early instead of last.

Discovery and platform scoping

We map what the app has to do, who will use it, and which Apple platforms it needs to reach. iPhone only is a different budget to iPhone, iPad, and Watch.

Human Interface design and architecture

We settle the user flows against Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines and the technical architecture at the same time, before production code starts.  

Swift development sprints

We build in short sprints, each ending in a build you can install on your own iPhone. Progress shows up on a device, not in a status report.

Device validation and TestFlight beta

We test across the iPhone and iPad models and iOS versions your users actually run, then put the build in front of real testers through TestFlight.

App Store review preparation and release

We assemble the listing, the privacy manifest, and the nutrition labels, then submit. This is where launches slip, so we treat it as a stage rather than a formality.

Post-launch monitoring and iteration

We track crashes, ratings, and retention after release, then feed what we learn into the next submission.

Every iOS release goes back through review

A rule you have not read can hold your update for a week. That week is usually the one that mattered.

Two to four months for a simple app. Six to nine for something with custom animation, backend services, or ARKit. Enterprise builds run longer. Add review time on top and plan for it rather than discovering it.

Feature count, integration complexity, design depth, and how many Apple platforms you want it on. A basic app typically starts around $10,000 to $25,000, and advanced work goes well past that. We break the estimate down by part so you can cut what you do not need.

Swift for anything new. Objective-C only when maintaining a codebase that already exists, and even then migration is usually the cheaper long game. Cross-platform earns its place when you need iOS and Android on one budget — if you are weighing both, our Android application development page makes that case.

Apple reviews every submission against its guidelines. Rejections mostly come down to privacy disclosures, permissions, or a manifest missing from a third-party SDK rather than anything in your code. We run those checks before submitting, and if something is rejected we diagnose it, fix it, and resubmit.

Yes, and it should be in your company’s name rather than ours. The Apple Developer Program costs $99 a year. Owning it means the app, the reviews, and the ratings stay yours if you ever change agency.

You do. Source code and repositories transfer to you, the app sits under your own developer account, and we sign an NDA before we see anything sensitive. After launch we handle monitoring, crash resolution, OS updates, and guideline changes on whatever arrangement suits you.
