iOS & Android · Qualia Labs, Kent, UK
iOS and Android apps, from one codebase, through both app stores.
We design and build the app, then take it through App Store and Google Play review, including the parts of that process nobody warns you about. Fixed price, agreed after a one-week scoping sprint.
01 / What we build
What that looks like.
aOne codebase for both stores
One app for iPhone and Android, so every feature ships to both at once and there is one thing to maintain.
bStore submission
Developer accounts, listings, screenshots, privacy details and the review process, handled and kept in your name.
cAccounts, subscriptions and notifications
Sign-in, paid tiers and push notifications, built in rather than bolted on.
dLaunch and after
Analytics, a fortnight of watching it closely after launch, then monthly care if you want it.
02 / Work
Built and running.
Deckside
A tarot journal on Google Play with accounts, a subscription tier and an AI reading feature. Designed, built and submitted by the two of us. About Deckside.
MiMo
A family coordination app with push nudges, built once for web, iOS and Android.
03 / How it works
Fixed price, after one week.
Every build starts with a paid one-week scoping sprint. We take the idea apart and hand back a written spec and a fixed price, which is yours to keep whether or not you continue, and its cost comes off the build. Then clickable screens before any production code, the build in two-week blocks, launch, and a handover with everything in your name.
There are two of us, Sharan on software and product and Daniel on design and brand, and we do the work ourselves. How we work · Ways to work together
Most projects run between £25,000 and £75,000 depending on scope.
04 / Questions
Before you ask.
Do we need separate iPhone and Android apps?
No. One codebase builds both, which roughly halves the work of every future change.
Will you deal with Apple and Google review?
Yes. We prepare the listing, privacy details and screenshots, submit the app and answer the reviewers. The developer accounts are yours.
What does it cost?
Fixed, after the scoping sprint. Most of our projects run between £25,000 and £75,000 depending on scope.
Can you help people find it once it is live?
Yes. Positioning, the launch sequence and the first channels are part of what we offer, which is the part most developers hand back to you.
