iPhone and iPad apps have opened a world of opportunities for business. It’s a creative and exciting evolution for you and for iOS app developers like us.

In fact, because we’re senior level IOS App developers, no challenge is too great. We can successfully (and easily) create anything from simple landing pages to full mobile eCommerce deployments.

Native Application Development

Given that app building software can have bugs, we prefer to develop iOS apps with a focus on native code. As such, your iPhone or iPad app can easily leverage all the devices features (GPS to camera, Bluetooth, accelerometer, to name a few). We can code your application in either Objective-C or Swift, we lean towards Unity for game based applications and have done work with Cordova and other SDKs.

For simple applications without extensive multimedia we also develop applications in a cross-platform manner using PhoneGap, Titanium and Xamarin. We do not recommend these app building tools to be used in large application, and we are happy to council you on your project and discuss the pros or cons based on your specific application needs.

Advanced User Interface

When compared to web based applications, iOS native mobile application development enables attractive native phone features and abilities, allowing us to create a more user experience for your application. We are very adept at creating a vivid visual experience for your users, and helping to create the full user experience in detail.

We can take full control of the project and provide the full application layout and wireframe along with full graphic design. If you have staff graphic designers we can also work with your team to create the overall application look, which we then turn in to a functional application.

Internal Apps or Revenue Generating Apps

MGL build applications for many different uses, and often our clients use the applications for internal purposes only. Their staff have access to the mobile app but the app is not widely available on the public app store. This is used when the data in the application is private and not for public display, or the goal of the application is for staff communication and not to involve the public. We are happy to build the applications in either direction and can help explain which is ideal for your project.

We also build applications for customers who are looking to profit directly from the application, both in the Apple App store and Google Play. In these situations, the client needs to setup their own account with these two services, to collect the revenue and manage taxes. We can discuss with you how to go about this process and get your app setup live on the app stores.

Android

Android Mobile Development Victoria, BC

Android application development has taken off – and shows no signs of slowing down. With increased flexibility offered by Android devices to Users, such as: sharing options, third party software, overall customization ability, file systems, multiple user accounts on the same device, more free applications, and unlock options, it’s easy to see why Android has taken a stranglehold on the mobile device marketplace.

Native Device Features

Android offers a plethora of beautiful, functional native device features that you can take advantage of with your app. You can download an Android app to your phone and tablet sure, but device types are increasing to include your watch or tv, and even a car. Some native device features available to Android app developers to work with include:

  • interactivity via swiping, tapping, pinching, reverse pinching, and a virtual keyboard
  • home screen is like windows Desktop, which allows for app icons, widgets, screen themes & customization, and display of auto-updating content like email, news, or weather
  • file system is one of the larger Android advantages over iOS and allows a user to work with files, opening them in the app of their choice.

Open Source

Android has been developed with the help of the Linux community, which is an open-source playground for developers. Over 300 software, hardware and mobile carrier partners have attributed to the success and growth of Android development. With the ability for developers to collaborate, open source technology could continuously evolve and improve at a decidedly faster rate than proprietary software.
