Choose the right platform and first-release scope
Agree Android, iOS or cross-platform requirements and the capabilities needed in the first release.
Informan scopes mobile applications around the users, device requirements and workflow the business needs to support. We compare the required platforms and a web-based alternative before estimating screens, backend work, testing and release preparation.
We check why the workflow needs a phone app, compare platform options and define the screens, backend and release responsibilities.
Agree Android, iOS or cross-platform requirements and the capabilities needed in the first release.
Map account access, application screens, backend services and data responsibilities.
Test supported devices, errors, permissions and third-party services against the agreed scope.
Plan developer accounts, release submissions, support and future updates. External fees are separate.
A focused app release should support the essential user journey on agreed devices, with permissions and failure states checked before submission.
Explain who will use the application, how frequently and whether features such as camera access or offline work are necessary. Some requirements fit a responsive web app; others justify an Android, iOS or cross-platform application.
Native app builds are quoted separately from website and marketing retainers. The estimate distinguishes application screens, backend services, integrations, migration and ongoing maintenance. Store accounts, hosting, licences and provider charges have separate responsibilities and costs.
Specify the devices, platform versions, permissions and errors to test. Notification or offline requirements need their own acceptance criteria rather than a general promise.
Plan authorised developer accounts, supplied store assets, release submissions and future updates. Store acceptance is controlled by the platform and cannot be guaranteed by a development estimate.
Native mobile application builds are quoted separately after discovery. The website and marketing retainers do not include an unlimited Android or iOS build.
That depends on the users, device features, distribution and offline requirements. We compare a responsive website, PWA and native app before recommending an approach.
The retainer provides a shared monthly development allowance, not an unlimited app build. A complete application needs discovery, milestones and a separate estimate.
Ownership, source delivery, developer-account access and third-party components are recorded in the proposal so the release and handover are clear.
Describe the users, required devices and any offline, camera or notification feature the workflow depends on.
