DEVELOPMENT APP AT IOS

Native mobile applications developed for the iOS operating system are a working tool for keeping in touch with existing business customers and attracting new ones, brand awareness, and, of course, increasing income and profits. That’s why it’s time to order an application for iOS and begin to use the huge potential of the segment of users of “apple” devices.

The main advantages of a business with a mobile application for the “apple” platform include the following:

• increased reach of a mobile audience;
• a distinctive feature against the background of competitors;
• the ability to automate many business processes;

• effective advertising at no additional cost;
• non-stop availability;
• loyalty factor;
• source of profit.

By the way, in comparison with Android, the monetization potential of iOS applications is significantly higher, but the development price is different.

The number of active iOS devices totals about 1 billion. At the same time, the total share of “apple” smartphones and tablets is about 20%, and Android gadgets are quantitatively far ahead. But it is the audience of iOS users that is considered one of the most desirable and valuable for almost any business. And the creation of an application for this platform is relevant primarily not because of the huge potential reach, although it shows constant growth, but because of the high purchasing power of this audience.

Important features of both iOS itself and the army of its users include the following:

• A special ecosystem. It is formed by various digital devices and software solutions offered by Apple. Building iOS apps allows businesses to become part of this ecosystem.
• Exemplary level of loyalty. Users of the Apple platform rarely change their preferences, demonstrating high loyalty to Apple products and technologies. Automatically, this loyalty extends to the software offered in the AppStore, however, it must subsequently be confirmed.

• High purchasing power. IOS users are predominantly well-off people who are willing to spend money on a quality product. From a business point of view, developing an application for this platform simplifies contact and interaction with potential customers.
• Trust in mobile applications. According to statistics, iPhone and iPad users prefer to use apps rather than mobile sites. This is true both for finding information, entertainment and communication, and for making purchases on the Internet.
• Willingness to spend money inside applications. iOS-audience is more actively parting with money using mobile applications. This applies to both purchases of goods (i.e. direct monetization), and the acquisition of premium accounts, which, for example, expand the basic functionality or open access to paid content.

In order to create a useful, convenient, attractive and error-free application for apple mobile devices, we adhere to the following development stages:

1. Product analysis. Before developing mobile applications, it is necessary to carefully assess the demand for this software and understand how justified such an investment. The project team studies and analyzes popular products in your field of activity in terms of functionality, usability, design, compliance with user requirements, etc.
2. Planning. Based on the analysis, a technical task for the development of an iOS application is formed. It describes the functionality, structure, technical aspects, logic of work, transition diagrams. The technical task is agreed with the customer.
3. Architectural design. First of all, we develop all the structural elements of the application interface. They should be convenient and understandable to the target audience. When developing architectural design, it is important to consider which application is being created: stand-alone or complementary to the site.
4. UI / UX. At this stage, the team thinks through an attractive, but at the same time practical and functional design of the application. On various Apple mobile devices, software should look equally beautiful, convincing, and understandable.

5. Server side development.One of the most critical stages, because despite the fact that the server part (or Back-end) remains outside the field of view of users, the correctness, speed and continuity of the future application depend on it.
6. Client side development. The so-called Front-end is the visible part of the application for iOS, which is responsible for displaying and correctly displaying content on the screen in response to various user actions. Development is carried out in stages and is under the control of the customer.
7. Testing. After completing the direct creation, the application is thoroughly tested and checked for possible errors. If they are identified, then all the necessary changes are made. Only after that we unload the application in the AppStore and help with the passage of moderation.
8. User training. We train the customer and / or his representatives to work with the administrative panel, settings and other specifics of using the mobile program.
9. Technical support. Our team provides comprehensive technical assistance after launching the iOS mobile app. Any errors identified or arising after the end of development are quickly eliminated.

The cost of developing applications for the iPhone and iPad is determined individually for each project. Initially, you need to understand what the customer wants to get, that is, analyze the goals pursued by him, determine all the required functions, etc.

The price depends on the complexity of the development and the time spent by the Avada Media team. The starting point for the calculation is the total complexity. For the simplest applications, it takes about 300 hours or from 5 thousand dollars. The development of complex products takes more than 3-4 months, and the cost can reach 25-50 thousand dollars.

The rich experience of IT development, numerous examples of applications created from scratch in the portfolio and a team of professionals who know the subtleties and nuances of such work speak in favor of our company. Our developers use the Swift, Objective-C, JavaScript, and other technologies that are in demand today to create applications for iPhone and iPad.

As a result, the customer can count on:

• a beautiful and at the same time convenient interface;
• the correct operation of the application and all its components in any interaction scenarios;
• the practical usefulness of software for the target audience of the business;
• the versatility of the application in terms of correct operation on various versions of iOS;
• сompliance of the product with all relevant requirements of Apple and its proprietary AppStore app store.

Additional advantages of our company include:

• transparency of relationships with the customer. We work in a system for setting and monitoring tasks with a breakdown of the project into sprints;
• strict observance of our obligations in terms of time;
• focus on achieving customer goals, and specifically in this case – creating a working and effective iOS application that meets the needs of the business;
