iOS app development: iPhone and iPad apps, App Store included.
iOS app development including App Store submission and review support, designed along Apple's Human Interface Guidelines. On request, the Android and desktop versions come from the same codebase.
App Store launch
Preparation, submission and review support up to approval, a process we know from our own apps.
Apple-grade design
Human Interface Guidelines, Cupertino components, Dark Mode and Dynamic Type.
Android included
From the same Flutter codebase we ship to Google Play as well, on request.

Dictate your list instead of typing
Speak, and the list writes itself: Pauly extracts items and quantities from natural speech. Built from one Flutter codebase for iOS and Android.
What you should know about iOS app development.
-
App Review is strict
Apple reviews every app manually for privacy, stability and guidelines. We prepare the submission so that first-attempt approval is realistic.
More on this
That includes the store listing, screenshots, privacy declarations and the communication with Apple if questions come back.
-
iOS alone is often half your audience
In Germany, roughly half the market uses Android. With Flutter the Android version comes from the same codebase, now or later.
-
What iPhone app development includes
Concept and UI/UX design, development for iPhone and iPad, integrations such as push, Face ID, Apple Pay, widgets and Siri Shortcuts, plus updates for new iOS versions and devices.
More on this
Technically: Flutter with Cupertino components, native Swift modules for deep system integration, crash monitoring in operation.
-
Maintenance belongs in the plan
Every year brings a new iOS and new devices. A maintained app stays compatible, so we plan updates in from the start.
Next stop: the App Store.
From the first concept to Apple's approval: we know the review from our own submissions and guide your app through it.
Our own apps on the App Store.
Pauly · dictate your shopping list
Pauly, our voice-controlled shopping list app, is live on the App Store: on-device speech recognition, offline use without an account, real-time sharing. Built with Flutter from one codebase that serves Google Play in parallel.
Chess Clock · Blitz Timer
We build native too: Chess Clock is our own SwiftUI app, a chess clock with Fischer, Bronstein and delay increments, tournament time controls and Live Activities on the Lock Screen. One Swift codebase for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV and Vision Pro, works offline and needs no account.
Frequently asked questions about iOS app development.
Can't I just build an iOS app myself with AI?
For a prototype, yes. An iPhone app that passes App Review and stays maintainable needs architecture and App Store compliance. We build AI-assisted ourselves, as an iOS app development company with our own apps on the App Store.
How much does an iOS app cost?
The feature scope: a focused MVP is far cheaper than an app with a backend, accounts and integrations. Android can be added from the same codebase. Concrete figures follow the free first call.
How long does App Store approval take?
Apple's review usually takes a few days. What matters is the preparation: complete privacy declarations, stable builds, guideline-compliant content. We take care of that, including follow-up questions from Apple.
Do you develop natively in Swift or with Flutter?
Flutter by default: native performance, an Apple-appropriate look via Cupertino components, Android and desktop from the same codebase. Where deep system integration is needed, we add native Swift modules.
Do I need my own Apple Developer account?
Yes, to publish under your own name (USD 99 per year). We set it up with you, and the app appears under your brand. One-time purchases, in-app purchases or subscriptions are processed by Apple, which keeps a commission.
Will the app run on iPad too?
Yes. We design responsive layouts from the iPhone SE to the iPad Pro, with iPad views like Split View on request. Before launch, selected users test via TestFlight on their own devices.
