How we build your app

From first call to live on the stores.

Five steps, one small team and a fixed price the whole way through. You see and approve your app at every stage, so nothing arrives as a surprise.

Day 1

Free 10-minute call

Tell us the idea. We’ll be honest about which package fits, what it costs and how long it takes, and whether an app is the right move at all.

You get a fixed price in writing. 50% books your build, 50% is due at handover.

Weeks 1–2

Designed in your brand

Every screen is designed in your colours, then turned into a clickable preview you can tap through on your own phone.

You approve the design before a line of code is written.

Weeks 2–6

Built, with a new version every week

We build in weekly rounds. Each week a fresh version lands on your phone through Apple’s TestFlight and Google’s test track, so you watch it come together.

You test the real app as it grows and tell us what to change.

Weeks 6–7

App Store and Google Play

We prepare the store listings, screenshots and privacy answers, then take the app through Apple and Google’s review for you.

You own both store accounts. The app is published under your name, not ours.

Launch day

Live, and looked after

Your app goes live on both stores. Any fixes are on us for 30 days, then Appro Care keeps it hosted, monitored and working with every new iOS and Android update.

You keep the code, the accounts and a direct line to the person who built it.

Timings shown for a Full App, live in about 6–8 weeks. A Starter App is usually live in about 4.

App pricing

Three app packages. Fixed prices.

Every app is designed in your brand, built for iPhone and Android and launched on the App Store and Google Play, at a fixed price agreed before we start.

Good questions

App development services, answered.

What does bespoke app development cost?

Every app is a fixed price agreed before we start: Starter App £3,995 and Full App £7,995, and bigger custom apps start from £12,995 once we’ve scoped them with you. Bespoke software starts from £4,995. Compare every package.

How long does a bespoke app take to build?

Most builds take around 4 to 8 weeks, depending on scope. A focused Starter App is usually live in about 4 weeks. We agree the timeline before starting and share working builds along the way.

Do you build for both iPhone and Android?

Yes. Every build includes an iPhone app and an Android app, launched on the App Store and Google Play together.

Is bespoke better than an app builder or a white-label app?

An app builder can work for a quick experiment. If the app is part of how your business makes money, bespoke is usually better value: it is built around your workflow, carries your brand and you own the code. Read app builders vs custom app development for the full comparison.

Who will I be working with?

Our in-house team, led by our founder and director, Max. You have one point of contact from the first call to launch, with no hand-offs to outside agencies.
