FAQs

How much do you charge for web and mobile application development services in London?

During the initial phase, we can only provide a rough estimate of the total cost for your app development project rather than an exact figure. The cost of the design and discovery stage may change as we collaborate, so it’s best to start with an estimated cost and use payment milestones to monitor expenses as the project evolves.

Keep in mind that creating high-quality web and mobile apps comes at a higher cost, as teams of designers, strategists and managers work together to ensure success. So while it may be tempting to choose a lower-priced option, it may result in additional expenses due to bugs and necessary improvements.

What influences the cost of a web or mobile app development project?

Several factors can influence the cost of app development in London and the rest of the United Kingdom, such as the complexity of the app, the platforms it will run on, and the requirements for future updates and bug fixes.

To make the app development cost more manageable, it’s advisable to establish project and payment milestones. This approach will break down the cost into smaller parts, making it easier to pay for the process.

Is custom app development and bespoke software development the same?

App development typically involves creating applications specifically for mobile devices, like smartphones and tablets, often tailored for specific operating systems like iOS or Android.

In contrast, custom software development is a broader term encompassing the creation of various software applications, including those designed for desktop computers, web browsers, and servers.

A custom software development company generally produces software for specific industries and enterprises. Meanwhile, an app development company primarily delivers content and interactive features directly to customers or consumers.

I have a unique idea for an app but don't know where to begin. How can you assist me?

Our primary focus is to help our partners in London and the United Kingdom cost-effectively bring their app ideas to life while prioritising growth. To achieve this, we have designed a web or mobile app development process that commences with the design phase.

In the design stage, we build a functional and iterative prototype that can be used to gain useful market insights and funding. You have full ownership rights to the design regardless of whether you choose to proceed with the mobile or web app development stage with us or not.

This approach allows us to offer you a low-risk approach to test your app idea and ensure its potential for success. With a prototype, you can better understand your target market and their needs, which can inform the development process and improve the app’s chances of success.

Have you supported the growth of any startups, and do you have any proof to back this up?

We provide valuable guidance to startups throughout their web, iOS, or Android app development journey and beyond. Our team comprises coaches and mentors with extensive experience and insights on what it takes to succeed as a startup.

We have witnessed remarkable achievements with our clients, such as securing funding of hundreds of thousands of dollars with a prototype. Some clients have even amassed millions of active users and gone on to launch on the stock market through an IPO, which is the ultimate startup dream!

For instance, Roamni achieved a valuation of $5 million and gained partnerships with prestigious brands such as Formula 1, thanks to our collaboration. Our team is committed to ensuring our clients’ success, and it is one of our defining principles.

What advantage do you have over other web and mobile app developers in London and the United Kingdom?

We are proud to have an outstanding team of product designers and developers. Appetiser comprises experienced professionals who have worked for major companies like Samsung and Kyocera. 

We don’t simply claim to be the best app developers — we have the track record to prove it through our successful projects. These include seven patents under our belt, one valued at $17 million by the telecommunications company Telstra.

How do you ensure your work aligns with your client's objectives?

We prioritise maintaining open communication channels with our clients to ensure our app development aligns with their goals. This involves providing direct access to our mobile app development team, which includes a project manager working closely with assigned iOS or Android app developers.

Through this approach, we strive to gain a thorough understanding of our clients’ objectives and work collaboratively to achieve them efficiently. Depending on the project’s scope and complexity, we may also involve UI designers, UX design specialists and QA testers.

As we are a collaborative app developer, London partners can count on us for a smooth development process and a final product that meets their expectations and aligns with their objectives.

Do you have proof of innovation in the field of app development?

We are fueled by a deep passion for continual innovation and improvement in a constantly changing industry. 

One of our most notable innovations is Geavi, a GPS encryption app that combines audio and visual elements. Geavi is committed to promoting social change and personal safety. It automatically records incidents from the user’s pocket, creating documented evidence that can be conveniently stored and shared with loved ones.

We would be delighted to connect you with other previous clients who have picked us as their web, Android and iOS app development partners if you are seeking feedback.

Can I obtain feedback from your past app development clients?

We are proud to have received overwhelmingly positive feedback for our web and mobile app development services and welcome you to see it out for yourself.

Our consistent 5-star ratings on Clutch, which is gold-verified, and our 4.9 average rating on Google are evidence of our dedication to delivering high-quality work and ensuring our clients’ satisfaction.

Additionally, we are willing to connect you with some of our satisfied clients on a case-by-case basis so that you can gain first-hand insight and make an informed decision.

Why should I choose your web and mobile app development agency over other mobile app development companies in London and the United Kingdom?

We are a mobile and web development company that embraces a forward-thinking approach, and we have a broad range of tools at our disposal to produce exceptional products and help you grow. Our commitment goes beyond just developing apps — we are dedicated to supporting our clients throughout the entire process, including post-launch.

Here are some of our key highlights:

  • 100% project delivery success rate
  • 100+ apps developed
  • 5 million+ app downloads
  • $100 million+ app revenue generated
  • On course to raise A$10 million for charity through our web app platforms

  • Recognised among the 10 Rising Stars in Deloitte’s 2019 Tech Fast 50 Award
  • Technology winners in the Melbourne Young Entrepreneur Awards in 2019
  • Appetiser places 64th in the prestigious AFR Fast Starter list

How do you communicate with your clients in London and the United Kingdom?

Our team understands that maintaining effective communication is imperative to ensure the success of any project related to app development. We keep our channels of communication open and encourage feedback and discovery sessions regularly.

Furthermore, we use several communication platforms like face-to-face workshops, shared project management software and email.

Could you explain how your process for developing apps works?

We adopt an agile methodology for our design and development processes, which encompasses two main phases:

Design – We encourage collaboration, idea-sharing, and workshopping during the initial design phase. Our designers and product strategists will guide you with their expertise, innovation and creativity.

Once the roadmap is established, the design process commences, including the creation of low-fidelity wireframes, UI design and logos. The result is an interactive prototype that enables a thorough understanding of your product’s viability.

Development – Following the completion of the groundwork, mobile or web development begins until the project is finished. We recommend initially starting with an MVP discovery and design stage to kickstart the project and produce an interactive prototype.

This approach minimises the risk of investing significant money in an app idea that may not be feasible.

Do I have to sign a contract with your app development company?

Many of our clients in London, the United Kingdom, and other locations choose to enroll in a continuous improvement retainer program, which involves continuously enhancing and updating their Android and iOS apps, but this is entirely voluntary. 

If you choose us as your web or mobile app development company, there is no requirement to agree to a maintenance contract.

Will I own the intellectual property rights to the app?

Yes. You will have sole rights to the web, Android or iOS mobile app and all its intellectual property. As the product owner, you have the liberty to use it for any purpose as you fit.
