Mobile apps
Mobile app development services for iOS and Android
We build cross-platform mobile apps with Flutter, connected to the systems that run your business, so orders, stock and customers stay in sync.
What’s included
- Flutter for iOS and Android
- Customer and ordering apps
- Staff and field apps
- API and back-end integration
Why it matters
An app is only as good as the system behind it
Our mobile app development services start with a simple question: what should people be able to do from their phone? Order again, book a slot, check stock, log a visit. The answer shapes every screen we design.
Most app problems aren’t on the phone at all. They come from a weak back-end, data that doesn’t match your admin system, or an app nobody can update.
That’s why we build the app and the API together, so both stay in step as your business changes.
A mobile app makes sense when
- Customers reorder or book regularly
- Staff work away from a desk
- Your web platform needs a phone companion
- Notifications would save follow-up calls
Mobile app development services we offer
One Flutter codebase for iOS and Android, built and supported by the same team as your back-end.
Cross-platform Flutter apps
One codebase for iOS and Android, so features reach both platforms together and there’s one app to maintain.
Customer and ordering apps
Catalogues, carts, reorders and account areas that connect straight to your stock and order management.
Staff and field apps
Apps for deliveries, stock checks, visits and approvals, giving teams on the move the data they need.
APIs and back-ends
The server side your app relies on: authentication, data, notifications and an admin panel to manage it all.
Custom software developmentCompanion apps for web platforms

Why we build mobile apps with Flutter
We build mobile apps with Flutter, Google’s framework for producing iOS and Android apps from one codebase. You get a consistent experience on both platforms, and every new feature is written once.
Behind the app we use the same stack as our business platforms: .NET and ASP.NET Core APIs with SQL Server, or PHP and Laravel with MySQL.
Good apps also need good interface design, which is why UI/UX design is part of every mobile project we take on.
What you get
- One codebase for iOS and Android
- An API and admin panel to match
- Screens designed around real user journeys
- Ongoing updates and support
Mobile app development services FAQs
Straight answers to the questions we hear most.
How much do mobile app development services cost?
Cost depends on the number of screens, user types and integrations, and whether you need a new back-end or already have one. After a short discovery we give you a clear estimate and a phased plan, starting with the features that matter most to your users.
Do you build apps for both iOS and Android?
Yes. We build with Flutter, which produces apps for both iOS and Android from a single codebase. That keeps design and behaviour consistent across devices, and means updates reach both platforms together rather than being built and tested twice.
How long does it take to build a mobile app?
A focused first version covering the core journeys can take from a few weeks to a few months, depending on scope and whether the back-end already exists. We release in stages, so you can test a working build on your own phone early on.
Can the app connect to our existing system?
Usually, yes. If your system has an API we connect to it; if not, we can build one. Sublime Groceria, for example, runs on the Sublime Care Cloud API, so its catalogue and orders are managed from the same admin as the business.
Do you support the app after it launches?
Yes. We handle bug fixes, updates for new iOS and Android versions, and new features as your users’ needs change. Because we also build and host the API, one team looks after the whole product rather than just the app.
