Hybrid Mobile App Development

Hybrid applications have all the native app features and capabilities, these apps allow developers to adopt HTML5 mobile app development and write code for a mobile app once and still accommodate multiple platforms. The writing part of hybrid app’s uses HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript, giving them the ability to reuse it across multiple mobile operating systems. The device’s browser is used to render HTML and JavaScript and native APIs to access device-specific hardware.

For users, native apps and hybrid are nearly similar to each other, both are launched in the same way, downloaded from Apple’s App Store or Google’s Play, and stored on a mobile device.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE APP DESIGN

Can you give me a fixed-price quote?

Before we begin your project, we work with you to write a detailed project specification and then provide you with a fixed-price quote to deliver the work. This fixed price and specification protects you: you can hold us accountable to deliver exactly what has been put to paper, for that exact cost. No hidden charges, no sneaky fees, everything is clear and concise.

I’ve got an idea, where do I start?

Talk to us. If you share your idea via this form, one of our team will respond within one working day by email or phone.

If you’d prefer to speak to us right now, call 0879 432 594 and one of the team will talk through your ideas and project.

We never hard sell, all calls are without obligations, and we’re always happy to help.

Can you build apps for both iOS and Android?

Yes, most of the apps we make support both iOS and Android mobile platforms. It’s common for people to want their applications to work across web and mobile devices, so we use development frameworks such as React and React native that enable us to quickly support both platforms.

Do you build web applications too?

Yes, in fact nearly every mobile app that we build also needs a web based application behind the scenes to drive it. Ever logged into an app? There is a web server in the background, serving the app with data that is checking whether you have permission to log in, or not.

How do you make sure you build what I want, and don’t get it wrong?

We don’t just blindly begin building your requirements; we start by having a meeting to understanding the commercial factors that are driving the need for your project. We want to get to a position very quickly where we know enough to challenge you on the assumptions you’ve made about the features you require.

Once we understand your business, we go to lots of effort at the start of a project to work with you, and scope out your requirements in detail.

You don’t just want us to tell you that we understand your project, we need to prove it to you. This is why we will often create a 10+ page requirements specification, with wireframes where appropriate, before we design a single pixel, or write a line of code.

Will I own the source code?

Yes, you will be assigned appropriate copyright or licence rights for the bespoke code that we write for your project. We are transparent with intellectual property rights, and you will have the opportunity to review our code ownership terms before the project begins.

How long will it take to build and launch my app?

Many factors contribute to launching a successful project, and some requirements may result in the project taking longer to develop than others. However, for estimation, a good guide is that a project will typically take one month for every €6,500 (+VAT) of development work.

Can I make changes to my app or website after its launched?

Yes, in fact, we highly recommend that you begin by launching the simplest possible version of your vision first and continue to adapt it over time. This staged approach is called launching a “minimum viable product” (MVP).

The idea behind launching an MVP is that you’ve inevitably made assumptions, and you can’t test these assumptions until you release something to the world. By releasing a lean first version, you can test your assumptions and use this information to decide on the priorities of future requirements. It reduces engineering waste.

We have some options around making future changes to your app or website.

You can either commission us to update your app or website on a project-by-project basis, whereby we specify, quote, schedule and finally deliver a fixed set of requirements as-and-when you need them. Or, we can take an AGILE approach whereby we schedule in a certain amount of developer time each month to constantly improve things for you. Both approaches have merit, and it’s likely that you will know instinctively reading this as to which is right for you.

How do we handle sharing data between web and mobile platforms?

We start by creating a central database that will hold all your data; we then put in place an interface (an API) to allow the web and mobile apps to send and receive this data.

Think of an API as a digital version of a drive-through burger restaurant. If you ask the teller for a burger, then you’ll get given one from the kitchen. Ask them for a trampoline and tell you that they don’t sell that product. When we build a connection between your web app and your mobile app, we will configure these rules but based on the functionality of your system.

How will you handle project payments from us?

For small requests, typically €1,000 – €5000, we will invoice a 50% opening deposit and a final 50% deposit on completion of the work.

For larger scopes of work, we will split the payments over the life of the project at monthly intervals. For example, a €20,000 project over three months would divide into four instalments of 20% | 30% | 20% | 30%

Any planning day fees are due in advance of the initial planning day meeting.

We work this way because it supports your cash flow, and means that you don’t have to pay too much money up front in advance of seeing some output from us.

Mobile apps are still dominating users’ time

FEW MOST IMPORTANT FACTS

WONDERING HOW AN APP CAN HELP YOUR BUSINESS TO ACCELERATE?

Having a mobile app for a business not only comes with various advantages but also several reasons for you to think of investing in it. One of the main advantages of mobile apps is that you are getting the presence of a larger audience which is not possible in an offline store or business.

TIME SPENT ON MOBILE APPS IS GROWING AT THE FASTEST PACE.

Mobile categories are, expectedly, faring considerably better than desktop

Time spent on mobile apps grew 11% YoY during June 2016, down from the 25% YoY increase reported in June 2015. Despite the deceleration, it grew at a faster clip than both the mobile web and desktop, expanding its overall share of digital time by four percentage points to reach 58% in 2016.

TIME SPENT ON THE MOBILE WEB IS FLAT AS A PERCENT OF TOTAL DIGITAL TIME.

SEO statistics point to the amazing conversion power of search engine marketing.

The mobile web accounted for 8% of all digital time spent in June 2016, a share that has remained unchanged over the past three years.
