App Development
What is needed for mobile application development? Everything starts with an idea. Whether it’s a next social media platform, a telemedicine solution, an internal application for your team or something completely different – you need to have at least one sentence that can describe what you have in mind. If you can deliver a more detailed plan, that’s great! But if not, don’t worry. We are here for you and we will use our expertise to help you expand all the aspects of your idea into a real, tangible project.
Digital Product Design
What’s so unique about our approach is that we accompany our clients through the whole app development process. After you contact us, we organize UX and UI Workshops which is usually a 2-day meeting where we focus on perfecting your idea, finding key features, determining crucial details and preparing a plan for the next steps. At itCraft, we believe in collaboration between the product owner and development team – so we invite you to be an active participant in the process if you want to.
UI/UX Design Services
Our team of seasoned designers will ensure that your customers receive perfect user experience and get an intuitive interface for achieving their goals with your mobile application. Designing any software for a mobile device requires knowledge about human behavior, preferences and culture. Finding synergy between a stunning visual look and user-friendly functionality requires particular skills that itCraft specialists definitely have. Just check out our portfolio!
We can also help you with branding and your other graphic design needs. Our software products are always designed to support you in expressing your brand’s voice and vision.
Mobile App Consulting
As we have mentioned, you don’t need to worry about any stage of the process, because we are always with you. From the beginning to the end, we give you advice, help you when there’s a need for change and support you after release. Throughout the process of mobile app development, our team conducts research, collects feedback, tests modules and components and asks customers for feedback.
All that to determine if the project moves in the right direction. If not, we are flexible to change the plan and pursue new concepts. Ultimately, we want to achieve the highest level of customer satisfaction and give your business a beneficial product that will become a part of your long-term strategy. And we wouldn’t be able to do that if we couldn’t follow recommendations and sudden sparks of creativity.

Why is mobile application development important?
Our world is constantly changing and evolving. The digital environment has become an integral part of our lives and a mobile device is our companion in many situations. Statistics don’t lie – people use smartphones more often because they are convenient and available in every place with an internet connection. Every year the number of users who move their e-commerce purchases, entertainment needs and everyday errands to mobile apps increases. There is an application for almost everything.
Missing an opportunity to join this trend would be a bummer. Why should you give your users a mobile app for their Android and iOS devices?
- The awareness of your brand will skyrocket
- Your customers will love your brand even more
- Their loyalty will grow if you solve their problems with your app
- Another source of revenue and multiple monetization options
- Reaching out to more potential clients
- Possibility to expand in the future
Depending on the technology you use for your apps’ development, you can quickly enter the market with a product for various devices and operating systems. Afterwards, you will have a chance to introduce updates that can improve it even more. All you need is an experienced custom software application development company that will help you achieve your business goals – that’s us!
Custom app development
There are hundreds of premade software solutions and components that can be used to create a platform for your customers. Still, we recommend custom application development. Why? It might be more costly than using something out-of-the-box, but it provides such capabilities that no ready product ever will.
First of all, customization – which is evident regarding this approach. Having your own dedicated team that leads your app development from scratch, you can add the exact features you need. The aesthetics of your mobile applications can also be designed based on your brand identification and requirements. You also get technical support after the implementation. Everything can be done the way you and your customers are expecting.
Our individual approach to each client is the essence of our work. We want to create products that are an integral part of your brand. Mobile app development is a complex process and at each stage, we pay attention to detail and make sure everything is according to your requirements – so you can quickly fulfill your expansion goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything about Mobile Development
Mobile apps are becoming a core of business for many companies and startups. That’s because their potential clients are interested in mobile solutions and looking for convenient ways to fulfill their daily goals and needs. A great example is the e-commerce sector, where each year traffic moves from web to mobile applications. Some innovative services like telemedicine have moved entirely into the digital environment to offer people what they need no matter where they are.
Having a mobile application can also help your business cut costs of some operations and grow revenue by reaching new markets. If you still don’t have an app, we recommend researching your current pool of clients and finding out how you can solve their problems. Many times, this can be done with a mobile app.
It’s not that easy to answer that question. Everything depends on app requirements, your budget and required release date. Usually, you will need two mobile apps – for Android and iOS. Native apps are the most advanced software products, but then mobile app development takes more time. Also, having two separate teams can cause delays when one encounters more difficulties or takes longer to code a module. Still, native mobile apps deliver exquisite experience and can use hardware modules like GPS or camera to offer better features.
Cross-platform mobile app development, on the other hand, helps to save time and money, although it is not 50% cheaper as some people claim. It requires only one app developer team to create both apps and allows us to introduce changes simultaneously to Android and iOS versions. But it might be limited in some aspects.
The best way to decide which technology should be used in your project is to consult your app development needs and ask us for recommendations. We will be able to give you advice based on their previous experience.
There is no way to estimate the cost of software development without knowing the scope of the project. We can share our opinion on the budget you need to secure based on our finished projects, but we approach each client individually and the price always differs. What are the main factors that shape it? That would be:
- The number of apps and other products you require
- The advancement of functionalities you want us to develop
- What you already have (e.g., is there a back-end or do we need to build everything from scratch?)
- The technology you pick which can determine the size of the team
- Do you need a whole dedicated team, or you have someone on your side and looking for a team extension?
And many more. You can find cost estimation examples in our “Pricing” tab, where we analyze a couple of factors that can influence the final cost.
Don’t settle for the first or the cheapest company you stumble upon! Hiring an app developer can be quite expensive, but a higher price usually indicates quality and professionalism. If you want to save some money, we recommend outsourcing one of the offshore development companies.
To find out if a company you want to hire as your app developer can be suitable for your business, you should start with online research. Check out their website and social media, browse portfolio and reviews. This will help you form the first impression and decide if you want to contact this particular software house.
Don’t hesitate to contact a company you are interested in. They will explain their offer and tell you more details about their work. If everything clicks – you have your mobile app development dream team!
We always suggest picking a Time and Materials payment model as it gives the product owner more flexibility and is perfect for Agile Scrum projects.
In the Time and Materials model, the client only pays for the resources that the team will use to work on the mobile application. It’s the best option when we want to be able to change something mid-project, or we can’t predict how long it will last. Usually, it is based on an hourly rate that is calculated with multiple factors in mind.
Pick one that suits your project best or ask your software development company about both options and their cost.
It merely means hiring a mobile app development team from another location, usually from the country with lower hourly rates. Outsourcing the development of apps means you can save money because you don’t need to hire your own team.
What’s worth mentioning is that outsourcing to Europe can be highly beneficial as we hire really skilled specialists. Saving money means you can employ a bigger team for faster results or invest in other areas of your business. We definitely recommend outsourcing and most of our clients work with us as their offshore team extension!
That depends. A web app or desktop app can complement your mobile app and allow your customers to access your products or services in many ways. It’s convenient and helps to raise brand awareness. You might also need sets of apps for different client groups – for example, in telemedicine, we often create a mobile app for patients and a separate web app for doctors.
A website, on the other hand, is a great promotional tool. You can use it for search engine optimization, so when people google your brand, they will find it. It is also a great way to conduct content marketing activities, like writing a blog. Your webpage will be perfect for displaying customer reviews and third party articles about your mobile app. If you feel like you need it, ask your software house about it.
