Overview

A senior app team without London agency overheads

How working with us from Karachi fits the UK

  • Karachi is 4 to 5 hours ahead of the UK, so our working day overlaps your whole morning and early afternoon for calls and reviews.
  • Fixed quotes in GBP or USD, agreed before work starts, with no hourly billing.
  • Weekly demos, a shared channel and a staging build you can open on your own phone.
  • You own 100% of the code, designs and store accounts.

UK founders and product teams usually come to us for one of two reasons: a quote from a local agency that does not fit the budget, or a freelancer build that works in the demo but is not ready for real customers. We sit between the two: a small senior team that designs and builds the whole app, with fixed quotes and code you own.

We build in Flutter, so one codebase ships to the App Store and Google Play together, with native performance and a polished interface on both. The backend, admin panel and integrations are built alongside the app rather than left for later.

Our recent mobile work includes Zaity, a car care app we redesigned, rebuilt and relaunched on the App Store, Al Ra’atib, a salary app with payday reminders, and a guitar tuner with live pitch detection.

United Kingdom

Built for the UK from day one

  • UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018

    Privacy notices, consent, data minimisation and the right to erasure designed into the app, not bolted on before launch. We document what data the app collects and where it is stored.

  • The ICO Children’s code

    If children are likely to use your app, the ICO’s Age Appropriate Design Code applies, even to non-UK companies. We design high-privacy defaults, profiling off by default and age-appropriate flows.

  • Accessibility

    Interfaces built to WCAG 2.2 AA: contrast, text scaling, screen reader labels and touch targets, which matters for public sector buyers and for the Equality Act 2010.

  • UK payments

    Apple Pay, Google Pay and cards through Stripe, plus Direct Debit through GoCardless for subscriptions and memberships, priced and invoiced in GBP.

FAQs

Mobile App Development in United Kingdom, answered

UK agency quotes for a first app commonly run well into five figures. Our mobile app development starts from $2,000 for a focused scope, and we give a fixed quote after a free discovery call. Most first versions with a backend and admin panel land in the low five figures in USD, depending on features.
