WE’LL MAKE SURE YOUR MOBILE APP HAS OUTSTANDING UX.

We pride ourselves on delivering an excellent experience to your end-user, as we know that this is what makes or breaks a mobile app. Our skilled UX designers will research your target market, conduct usability tests, and ensure that your message is spot on.

THE MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

There are three distinct stages to building mobile apps. We work with you on discovery and market validation to mobile app design and development. Our ultimate goal is to make sure your app offers an outstanding experience to mobile users.

EXPLORATION

This is the first stage of the mobile app development process in which we work with you to clarify the brief for your app and define your needs so that we can make sure we’re all on the same page and can deliver the right solution.

BUILDING AN END-TO-END SOLUTION

Having completed the exploration stage, we start working on the UX and UI of your mobile app. We create wireframes which we share with you to demonstrate the flow from one page to the next. Once you approve these, we can start implementing the business logic that will meet your exact requirements and later the design and visual interface, including animations. Our skilled iOS and Android developers are on hand, not only to ensure everything in your app is working as it should but also to offer proactive suggestions for improvements. Because we work in Agile, after every 2-week Sprint, you will see the finished effects of your app.

MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT

We will thoroughly explain how you can make changes in the app and offer complete maintenance and support to ensure that your app grows alongside your business. We also monitor closely for bugs and regularly check that your app is working as it should across different mobile devices.

NATIVE APPS

When we don’t want to make compromises, be it on performance, security, or maintenance, we can build apps using native frameworks available on given platforms.

Sometimes we may be constrained to a feature-set that primarily relies on native solutions, and using a cross-platform framework doesn’t make economic sense. Native apps will always be the most performant, safest and require much less effort to maintain in the long term.

CROSS-PLATFORM APPS

Cross-platform frameworks work hard to deliver on their central promise to use a single codebase in as many places as possible.

With the new wave of mobile frameworks, we can finally make this happen, which has proven very effective. Using a single codebase for both platforms significantly reduces development time and improves app maintenance – releases can be done simultaneously on iOS and Android.

WHY DO SO MANY MOBILE APPS FAIL, AND WHAT CAN YOU DO TO MAKE SURE YOURS DOESN’T?

App Annie’s State of Mobile Report 2021 revealed that the mobile industry boom. Time spent in shopping apps went up by a colossal 49% in the past year, while App Store spending grew by 20% YoY. So why do so many of the mobile applications developed still fail? Here are the key culprits that we watch out for at 10Clouds to help your app have the best possible chance of success:

The importance of the discovery phase

According to Business of Apps, as many as 42% of mobile app failures result from inadequate user and market research.

This is why we recommend starting with a Minimum Viable Product (MVP). It’s essentially a version of your product that delivers your core functionalities to market early to test your business idea. By offering this simplified version instead of a full-blown product, you can test your hypotheses, gather user feedback, get your mobile application to market fast, and keep the costs down.

USER EXPERIENCE

There are so many different elements to a great user experience, but it’s all about clarity, ease of use, and aesthetics at its core. There’s no point in creating a visually outstanding product when your calls to action are missing and you fail to appropriately onboard your users. Here’s where the role of a UX Designer comes into its own, as they can help you shape the user journeys around your mobile app and ensure that your customers can intuitively find precisely what they are looking for. They also work with mobile developers to optimize the user experience after your app launches.

APP STORE OPTIMIZATION

As a start, make sure that you have a great product name and a sufficient description in the App store. There’s a separate area of App Store Optimization (ASO) that you should be familiar with to make sure you’re getting the most from organic positioning within the Apple App Store or Google Play. Once somebody finds your app, the first thing that they’re likely to look at is the reviews. That’s why it’s worth spending some time asking your early users to leave you a review and a rating – it will pay dividends further down the line.

MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Have a new idea for an app? Wondering how much it will cost to build? Mobile app development cost will primarily be down to complexity, closely linked to the number of features you want to include and the functionality you need.

There are differences in cost depending on whether you’re looking to build your app for an iOS or an Android operating system, or both. And if the answer is both, it might be worth looking at cross-platform mobile solutions.

If you’re looking to learn more about what goes into a mobile app estimate at 10Clouds, or you want to understand the differences in costs between different providers.

SEE SOME EXAMPLES OF OUR WORK.

TRUST STAMP – IDENTITY AUTHENTICATION

Trust Stamp has a mission to make usernames and passwords obsolete by providing a trustworthy digital identity. The company needed an extraordinary team experienced in machine learning and computer vision to make this happen.

Trust Stamp uses a state-of-the-art authentication system based on biometrics and data mined from public records. 10Clouds built this AI-powered solution and provided a design that perfectly reflects the product’s identity.

KEY FORGE – USAGAMING

Key Forge is a new card game released by Fantasy Flight Games. 10Clouds built an official mobile and web application for it. With Master Vault, users can quickly scan their cards, add notes or track their stats.

WISH – COMMUNITY MARKETPLACE

Wish is a social application for creative freelancers – it allows you to find and book cooperation with local micro-entrepreneurs. The app brings together many talents from photographers to make-up artists and quickly helps you book services.

Wish approached us to support UX, UI, and the back-end for the iOS app.

MOBILE TECHNOLOGIES – WHAT DO WE USE TO BUILD APPS?

Flutter

Flutter belongs to a new wave of cross-platform frameworks. Along with React Native, it provides the long-awaited performance and user experience needed to deliver high-quality results to our clients. After the first public release, we built multiple proofs of concept and decided that it’s ready to use in production environments. We’ve now created several apps in this technology stack, so we know its potential, as well as its limitations, but in summary, we’ve found that most business needs fit within Flutter’s capabilities.

React Native

At 10Clouds, we’ve worked using React Native for several years and have several projects behind our belt which use this technology, ranging in size and scope. They include large-scale apps used by hundreds of thousands of users and small products serving solopreneurs with a handful of clients. We’ve built shared codebases with web counterparts in React – a path that also turned out to be firm with React Native. The framework has established its position in the mobile ecosystem and is still evolving to meet business needs.

Kotlin

Kotlin is a cross-platform, statically typed, general-purpose programming language with type inference. It is widely used to develop Android applications. Kotlin is designed to interoperate fully with Java, and the JVM version of its standard library depends on the Java Class Library. Still, type inference allows its syntax to be more concise.

Swift

Swift is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm, compiled programming language developed by Apple Inc. It is designed to work with Apple’s Cocoa and Cocoa Touch frameworks and the large body of existing Objective-C code written for Apple products. Swift makes it easy to write high-speed and safe software by design.
