Custom mobile app development for iPhone and Android.

SFDIFY's mobile app development services take an app from idea to the App Store and Google Play, and keep improving it after launch. We build and run our own apps, including MyCheck, CostRefund and the USTAXX app, so we design for real users, reviews and updates.

App design and prototyping

Flows and screens tested with a clickable prototype before development starts.

Backend, accounts and payments

Sign-in, data sync, notifications and in-app payments on a backend built to scale.

AI inside the app

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What do mobile app development services include?

Usually product discovery, UX and UI design, building the iPhone and Android app and its backend, testing, App Store and Google Play publishing, and updates after launch. SFDIFY covers all of it.

Should we build native or cross-platform?

For most business apps, a cross-platform framework like Flutter or React Native gives one codebase for iPhone and Android with a native feel. Fully native makes sense for apps that lean heavily on device-specific features. Our native vs cross-platform guide covers the trade-offs.

How much does it cost to build a mobile app?

It depends on the features, platforms and backend involved. Our 2026 guide to mobile app development cost gives typical ranges by complexity.

Do you publish the app to the App Store and Google Play?

Yes. We prepare the store listings, handle review submission and set up analytics so you can see how the app is used from day one.

How do we start?

Book a free first consultation and tell us what the app should do. Projects typically start 2 to 4 weeks after the first call.
