App development approaches

Native

Native mobile app development involves using platform-specific programming languages, SW development toolkits, and development environments offered by OS vendors. Native apps have better performance and responsiveness and have 100% support for OS features.

Cross-platform

Cross-platform app development allows releasing your new digital products on multiple platforms simultaneously using languages and tools other than native. When you need to publish all your applications at once, you can do so without bloating your team’s size and timelines.

Hybrid

Hybrid mobile app development involves creating a core application with standard web technologies and tools. The app is then executed in a native shell. Hybrid apps have the speed of a regular web app and a user experience that’s similar to a native one.

References of Our Clients

Kind. Trustworthy. Professional

"TV7 was established 20 years ago by my father. We had mobile applications that were done in-house. Promwad was in contact with our Swedish office, and I thought: “Well, let's try. I need new, better versions for Android and iOS.”

We used the Flutter technology to do one code base and compile it to both platforms. And now the project is complete, and we are very happy and satisfied with the result."

Channel Manager at Heaven TV7 (Finland)

A great job!

"We had a very tight schedule and were facing some technical challenges. We have 200 engineers working on SW projects composing different project groups but, from time to time, we’re not able to deliver on time and we need additional technical support, so we work with Promwad.​"

FAQ

Can Promwad work with us if we don’t have a fully-formed idea for our app?

 

If you have only a conceptual outline of your future app, we can help you shape your idea into a business concept and create the terms of reference needed to start the development stage.

 

What platform should we target when launching our application: Android or iOS – or both?

 

It depends on several factors: the goal of the app, its domain, geography, target audience profile, etc. According to Statista, Android had close to 70% share worldwide, while iOS accounted for around 25% in Jan 2022. Both operating systems are true leaders and have good prospects and growth potential.

Therefore, it is wise to have applications on both platforms by opting for cross-platform or hybrid development.

 

What is the difference between cross-platform and native and hybrid mobile app development? Which one should I choose?

 

The right choice between these types of applications depends on the characteristics of your application, the habits and requirements of its target audience, and the limitations of your budget and dev team.

The native model involves creating an application for one platform using the native language of a particular operating system. This method is good for cases where there are no tight limits on timing and your team size, but there are high performance standards that must be met.

Cross-platform development is suitable for applications that are targeted toward audiences on multiple platforms. This option is suitable for low-cost applications that are built using frameworks.

The hybrid model is cost-effective and similar to the native one in many ways, but uses built-in browsers to work. Such applications are relatively inexpensive and fast to develop, but their UX is often inferior to native ones.

 

How long does it take to develop a mobile app?

 

Similar to the cost, this depends on the number of steps required and their complexity.

If the client does not have a detailed software requirement specification (SRS), we can provide an indicative estimate of what is required and then help work out the remaining details.

 

How much does it cost to develop a mobile app?

 

There is no fixed price for developing a mobile app. The cost depends on the amount of work and the time involved. For “turnkey” development, the cost depends on the following factors:

  • whether the requirements are fully-formed or need to be prepared with our help; 
  • whether the design is ready or needs to be developed by us; 
  • the platforms that need to be supported; 
  • backend requirements; 
  • interfaces (how well-designed, tested, and documented they are); 
  • code design (including documentation); 
  • testing and other project documentation. 

In the "team as a service" contract, the cost depends on the time spent on the development of your app.

 

Where does the work begin? Do you sign an NDA first?

 

First, we sign an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) and clarify the details of the project. Then we draft a business proposal. Once the agreement is signed, we get to work and you can watch your idea come to life!

 

Who will own the intellectual property rights to my app

 

We transfer full or partial rights to your application. We discuss this at the outset. We may only grant usage rights for certain parts of the application (e.g. a library), while Promwad reserves ownership rights. Our customers place information on the rights and trademarks in the Terms and Conditions.

 

Will you provide documentation for my solution or mobile app development?

 

The documentation on our clients’ projects can be divided into the following groups:
1. Requirements + architecture.
2. Technical description of features.
3. Comments in our code.
4. User documentation.


We do the architecture documentation together with our client. As for the technical documentation, its scope is determined separately, depending on the application complexity and the need for tech support by a third-party team. Timing and cost increase accordingly.
