What our iOS team builds

1

Native iOS apps in Swift

For apps built around the camera, AR, audio or other Apple device features, we build natively in Swift. Worldify, an app for creating videos with 3D characters, was built this way.

2

iOS and Android from one codebase

When you need both platforms, Flutter lets one team ship the iPhone and Android versions together, with one backlog and one release cycle.

3

iPhone app MVPs

A first version that proves demand in the App Store, scoped around the features users need on day one.

4

App Store launch and growth

App Store submission, review fixes, analytics and the regular updates that keep ratings up. Obimy, an app for staying close to loved ones, passed 10M downloads on iOS and Android.

5

Backend, integrations and AI features

APIs, payments, subscriptions, push notifications and AI features such as personalization and assistants, built by our backend engineers alongside the app.

6

QA and long-term support

Testing on real iPhones and iPads, crash monitoring, updates for each new iOS version and new features after launch.

FAQ

What does an iOS app development company do?

An iOS app development company designs, builds and releases apps for iPhone and iPad. Empat covers discovery, UX/UI design, development in Swift or Flutter, backend, QA, App Store submission and support after launch.

Should I build my iOS app in Swift or Flutter?

Choose Swift when the app depends on deep Apple features such as AR, advanced camera or audio work, or when you only need iOS. Choose Flutter when you need iOS and Android, since one team ships both. We recommend an approach after reviewing your product and roadmap.

How much does it cost to build an iPhone app?

Cost depends on features, integrations, design and team size. A focused first version costs far less than a full product, and building iOS and Android together in Flutter usually costs less than two native apps. Our preliminary proposal includes estimated hours, team and timeline.

How long does iOS app development take?

A focused MVP typically takes a few months; larger apps take longer. App Store review adds a short wait to each release, which we plan for. You see the full timeline in our proposal.

Do you handle App Store submission?

Yes. We prepare the build, screenshots and metadata, submit the app and handle reviewer questions or requested changes until it is approved.

Can you take over an existing iOS app?

Yes. We start with a code and architecture audit, fix what blocks releases and then continue development. You get a written summary of what we found and what we suggest.

Will my app work on iPad?

Yes, if you need it. We design layouts for iPhone and iPad from the start and test on both, so the app looks right on every screen size.

How do I get started?

Send a request through the contact form or book a call. We reply within hours, go through your goals on a first call, and send a preliminary proposal with the team, estimated hours and timeline.
