Reaching Android users everywhere
Android runs on a very wide range of phones and tablets from many manufacturers, with different screen sizes and system versions. A good Android app has to work reliably across that diversity.
We build Android apps with cross-platform technology: the same code base can also produce your iPhone app, which usually reduces cost and keeps both versions in sync. When an app depends on advanced, Android-specific features where fully native development in Kotlin is clearly better, we tell you at the start.
Android app development is part of our mobile app development service, and your app can share its back-end and data with your website or web application.
Who this service is for
- Businesses whose customers mainly use Android phones.
- Start-ups launching on Android and iOS at the same time.
- Companies that need an internal app for staff devices or tablets.
What we deliver for Android
Android-friendly design
Interfaces that respect Android conventions and adapt to many screen sizes.
App development
Your app built with the features your users need, tested on real devices.
Back-end & APIs
User accounts, data and an admin panel, shared with your website when relevant.
Notifications & integrations
Push notifications, payments, maps and third-party services.
Testing tracks
Internal and closed testing on Google Play before the public release.
Google Play publishing
Store listing, data-safety information, submission and release.
What is specific about Android
Device diversity
Many manufacturers, screen sizes and Android versions. We define the supported versions and test on a representative set of devices.
Google Play Console
Publishing requires a Google Play developer account in your company’s name, so the app belongs to you. We help you set it up.
Testing tracks
Google Play’s internal and closed testing tracks let you and your testers install pre-release versions before launch.
How we work
A clear, collaborative process — with one point of contact from the first call to launch and beyond.
Idea & scope
Users, core features, target devices and Android versions defined.
Design & prototype
An interactive prototype to test the experience before coding.
Development & testing
Iterative development with test builds on your own phone.
Google Play launch
Store listing, review, release and ongoing updates.
Technologies
Android Phones & tablets Cross-platform development Google Play Console Push notificationsWhat affects the cost
Every project is quoted individually after a short discovery call. The main factors are:
- The number of screens and features in the first version.
- The range of devices and Android versions to support.
- Back-end needs and integrations.
- Whether an iOS version is built at the same time.
- Maintenance for new Android versions after launch.
What you receive
- Your app published on Google Play under your own developer account.
- Source code and documentation.
- An admin panel or back-end where needed.
- Optional maintenance for Android updates, fixes and new features.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Google Play developer account?
Yes. Publishing on Google Play requires a developer account, with a one-time registration fee. We recommend opening it in your company’s name so the app belongs to you.
Which Android devices will the app support?
We agree on the minimum Android version and test on a representative set of phones and tablets, covering most of your users.
Can my Android app also run on iPhone?
Yes. We build with cross-platform technology, so the same code base can produce an iOS app as well.
Do you build native Kotlin apps?
Our approach is cross-platform. If your app needs capabilities where native Kotlin development is clearly better, we will tell you during scoping.
Can we test the app before it is public?
Yes. We use Google Play’s internal and closed testing tracks so you and your testers can install pre-release versions.
