Not Just Functional.
Built to Retain.

Most apps look good on day one and get uninstalled by day seven. We build apps engineered around one goal — keeping users engaged and turning them into repeat, paying customers. Design and development in one team, one process, zero handoff friction.

From MVPs to full-scale platforms, we deliver on time, on brief, and on budget — every time.

What We Build

iOS Apps

Native and cross-platform apps built for the Apple ecosystem — polished UI, smooth performance, and full App Store compliance from submission to approval.

SwiftSwiftUIApp StoreTestFlight

Android Apps

Fast, stable Android builds tuned for a wide range of devices — Material Design guidelines, Play Store optimisation, and battery-conscious performance.

KotlinJetpack ComposePlay StoreDevice Testing

Cross-Platform Apps

One codebase, two platforms — Flutter or React Native builds that ship faster and cost less without compromising on native-feel performance.

FlutterReact NativeSingle CodebaseFaster Ship

eCommerce & Marketplace Apps

Product listings, cart, checkout, payment gateways, and order tracking — built for high-volume transactions and a friction-free buying experience.

Payment IntegrationCart & CheckoutOrder Tracking

SaaS & Booking Platforms

Subscription apps, appointment and booking systems, dashboards, and admin panels — built to scale with your user base from day one.

App Redesigns & Migrations

Your current app is losing you users. We audit what's broken — UX, performance, retention — and rebuild it into an asset that keeps people coming back.

Our Design & Dev Process

Every deliverable, every phase — zero surprises.

(01)
Discovery & Strategy

We start with a deep-dive into your business, users, competitors, and goals. We map user flows, define retention metrics, and establish a clear feature list and platform strategy before a single screen is designed.

Business BriefCompetitor AnalysisFeature ListUser Flow
(02)
UI/UX Design & Wireframing

Low-fidelity wireframes first — screen flow and hierarchy — then high-fidelity Figma designs with your brand applied, following iOS Human Interface and Material Design guidelines. You approve every screen before development starts.

Backend & API Development

A stable app needs a stable backend. We build secure REST/GraphQL APIs, database architecture, authentication, and cloud infrastructure that scales as your user base grows.

App Development & Build

We build on the right stack for your needs — native iOS/Android or cross-platform via Flutter or React Native. Clean, modular code and a maintainable architecture built for future feature additions.

Performance Optimisation

A laggy app gets uninstalled. Every app we build is optimised for fast load times, smooth animations, low memory usage, and minimal battery drain across a wide range of devices.

Engagement & Retention Setup

Every app launches with retention infrastructure built in — push notifications, deep linking, onboarding flows, and analytics tracking so you know exactly how users behave from day one.

QA, Testing & Store Submission

Multi-device testing, crash testing, and a pre-launch checklist of 40+ items. We handle App Store and Play Store submission, listing optimisation, and approval — so your app launches without rejection delays.

Post-Launch Support & Maintenance

We don't disappear after launch. Monthly maintenance packages include OS-update compatibility, bug fixes, security monitoring, and performance reporting — so your app stays fast, stable, and current.

Why Graphicosmos for App?

Design + Dev in One Team

No handoff between a design agency and a dev shop. One team owns the whole project — faster delivery, better consistency, zero communication gaps.

Retention-First Thinking

Every screen decision is made with one question: does this keep the user coming back? Beauty without engagement is just decoration.

On-Time Delivery

We set clear milestones and hit them. If something changes, you hear from us first — not when a deadline is already missed.

You Own Everything

Full ownership of your source code, App Store/Play Store accounts, and backend from day one. No lock-in, no dependency on us for basic changes.

How We Work

A clear 6-step process from brief to launch — typically 6–10 weeks.

01

Brief & Discovery

Goals, users, competitors, and feature scope defined.

02

Wireframes

Screen flow and user journey mapped before visual design.

03

Design

Full Figma designs approved before development starts.

04

Development

Built clean, fast, and scalable on the right stack.

05

QA & Testing

40-point checklist across devices and OS versions.

06

Launch

Store submission, listing setup. Live and discoverable day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an app take to build?

A standard MVP takes 6–8 weeks. Full-featured apps with custom backend typically take 10–14 weeks depending on scope. Timeline depends on how quickly you provide content and feedback during the approval stages.

Should I build native or cross-platform?

Cross-platform (Flutter/React Native) is faster and cheaper for most apps and covers iOS + Android from one codebase. Native is worth it when you need heavy device-specific performance — AR, complex animations, or deep hardware integration. We'll recommend the right fit after understanding your requirements.

Do you handle App Store and Play Store submission?

Yes — we handle the entire submission process, including listing copy, screenshots, and compliance checks, under your own developer accounts. You own the accounts directly; we don't act as a middleman.

Do you redesign existing apps?

Yes — redesigns and migrations are common. We audit your current app for UX issues, performance problems, and retention gaps before we design anything, then migrate existing data and rebuild a version that performs significantly better.

Is a backend/API included in the build?

Yes, when your app needs one — user accounts, data storage, and business logic all require a backend. We build and host secure APIs and databases as part of the project, or integrate with your existing backend if you have one.

What information do you need to get started?

A brief call or a filled-out project brief form is enough to get started. We'll ask about your business, target users, competitors, core features, and any design references. From there we send a detailed proposal with scope, timeline, and pricing within 48 hours.
