iOS app development for iPhone

iOS app development at 514IT is an iPhone app, scoped in Montreal, tested with you, and sent to the App Store when the real task works.

The Problem

When the first store should be the App Store

An iPhone app is the right first store when your users are already on iPhone and you want one place to learn from. It is the wrong constraint when half of them are on Android and you pretend otherwise.

Our Approach

What the iPhone build includes

iOS mobile app development and iPhone app development are the same conversation here. We scope the iPhone app, build the version the scope describes, and submit it under your Apple account.

What's Included

What you actually get

The scope is written for your app. These are the pieces that show up in that scope.

An iPhone scope

The task, the people, and the fact that this release is for iPhone. Android is either named as later or ruled in now.

Your Apple developer account

The account and the listing stay in your name. We do not publish your app under ours.

The app

The screens and the accounts the scope named. Not a tour of Apple’s developer documentation.

A test before the public listing

The people who must use the iPhone app try the real task first.

Submission and what comes back

We prepare the build and the listing with you, submit it, and work through the reply. We do not promise a review outcome or a number of days.

Process

How a project moves

  1. 01

    Confirm the store

    If the audience is on iPhone, we start there. If it is split, we say so and look at a shared build.

  2. 02

    Open the account properly

    You hold the Apple developer account. We tell you what we need from it.

  3. 03

    Build the task

    The app does the job in the scope. We show it while it can still be corrected.

  4. 04

    Test and submit

    Real users try it. Then we submit the listing with you.

iPhone

iPhone app development, from the account to the listing

The useful parts are the scope, the account, the test, and the submission. The rest is implementation detail we will put in the scope, not a lecture.

When iPhone is the right first store

Start on iPhone when the people who must use the app on day one are already there. One store is enough to learn whether the task works in real life.

Do not start on iPhone alone when you already know the other half of the audience is on Android. Say that at the beginning. We would rather change the scope than discover it after the listing is live.

The Apple account stays yours

iPhone app development includes the store, and the store account is yours. The app listing is in the business’s name. 514IT prepares the build that goes into that account.

If you do not have an Apple developer account yet, we will tell you what to open. We will not hold the account so the app is stuck with us.

What iOS app developers should be willing to show you

If you are comparing iOS app developers, ignore the framework badges. Ask to see the scope, ask who you will talk to in Montreal, and ask how the test works before the app is public.

You should be able to point at the task a user must finish. If the proposal cannot point at that task, it is not ready to build.

Android, later or at the same time

A later Android app is a new scope, written from what the iPhone version taught you. A same-day launch on both stores is cross-platform app development, decided before the build.

We build for Android. We do not hide it on a separate sales page with nothing behind it. The choice belongs in your scope.
