Mobile App Development

Problem-Focused Design

We develop Mobile Apps for your business by connecting your vision with the problem that currently exists in the market. A critical mistake many founders & businesses make is falling in love with their products instead of the problem. We are here to ensure that doesn't happen. Whether you have a simple idea or an extremely complex one, our team at FA can handle it.

React Native, Flutter, Swift and Kotlin logos

Build Mobile Apps in React Native & Flutter

Cross-Platform Development

It's not every day that a framework comes around which has as much impact as React Native and Flutter have had. These programming frameworks allow developers to have one core codebase and bridge this natively to both iOS and Android. This means we can build a Mobile app for your business on both iPhone and Android in less time without compromising on performance like you would with old cross platform frameworks.

Native App Development using Swift & Kotlin

Fully Native

Have an older mobile app that you have already developed for your business with a truly native programming language? If so our team of developers has built countless apps in Swift and Kotlin if you want to use fully native technologies. These apps truly have the best experience on native devices especially if you are looking to build a mobile app with more complexity that uses the device's features like GPS, push notifications, or the accelerometer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We've got answers. If you don't see what you're looking for, feel free to reach out to us directly.

How much does it cost to hire an app developer?

The cost ultimately will vary based on the features you need. We can tell you we've built very simple apps that take about a week up to extremely complex ones that took +6 months. Most apps we've built typically take a few hundred hours spent over the course of 3-4 months to design and build properly. We offer free consultations to understand your needs and provide a customized quote.

How long does it take to build a mobile app?

Similar to web development, it depends on complexity. On average, a mobile app can take 3 to 6 months from initial design to launching on the App Store and Google Play.

Can you takeover my existing mobile app or website?

Absolutely. We often audit existing codebases and can take over maintenance, add new features, or entirely rebuild apps or websites that are struggling with performance issues. One of the things we pride ourselves on is having launched 100% of the projects we've built. Sadly, that's not very true for most other agencies where the project will fall apart before ever going live despite the client having spent 70% of their budget already.

Which AI technologies do you work with?

We work with leading AI companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google. We typically integrate their powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) and custom machine learning solutions into our clients' products. As a company ourselves, we are also using AI to speed up the development process for all of our clients via tools like Claude Code, Github Copilot, Cursor, Codex, and Google's Antigravity.

How much do you charge?

I hate to say it but, it depends. We price ourselves based on hourly rate x how many hours we think it'll take to build. If you reach out we'd love to get you a free accurate estimation for your project.

What technologies do you use to build websites and apps?

We work primarily with Next.js, Payload CMS, PHP/CodeIgniter, and React Native, hosted on DigitalOcean infrastructure. We favor self-hosted, open-source tools so you own your stack rather than being locked into a vendor.


Can you fix or take over an existing app?

Absolutely. We often audit existing codebases and can take over maintenance, add new features, or entirely rebuild apps that are struggling with performance issues.
