When an app feels off, people delete it. Your app is designed to Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and Material Design 3, so every swipe, tap, and transition behaves the way each platform's users already expect. On a phone, the way your app feels is the product.
The tools we design mobile apps in.
People use phones with their thumbs, decide whether to keep an app within seconds, and expect the conventions of whichever platform they're on. iOS users expect iOS patterns. Android users expect Android ones. A single design that papers over the difference ends up feeling wrong on both.
Android users reach for back navigation in a particular place. iOS users expect to swipe from the edge to go back. When those habits aren't met, the whole app feels slightly foreign even if nobody can say exactly why.
The design called for smooth transitions, but the build only manages 45fps on a mid-range Android. People feel it, and the App Store reviews start mentioning a laggy interface.
When the same Figma file is used for iOS and Android, one of them is bound to be wrong. Usually it's the platform that got less attention, and that's the one collecting the worst reviews.
Screen reader support was never tested. Bumping up the text size breaks the layout on screen after screen. A real group of users simply can't get through the app.
Each step has a clear deliverable and a written handoff, and we get your sign-off before moving to the next one.
We map the core user journeys for each platform and write down the patterns iOS and Android users will expect. That groundwork happens before anyone opens a design tool.
We start with low-fidelity wireframes for both platforms, then build an interactive prototype. You can tap through the core flow before we invest in high-fidelity screens, which is when feedback is cheapest to act on.
Full screens built to Apple's Human Interface Guidelines. That covers system fonts, safe areas, the standard navigation patterns, haptic feedback specs, and dark mode.
Full screens built to Material Design 3, including dynamic colour, edge-to-edge layout, the predictive back gesture, and layouts that adapt across device sizes.
Annotated Figma with platform-specific specs, component variants, interaction notes, and animation timing. iOS and Android get their own handoff so nothing is left to guesswork.
Real deliverables you can point to and outcomes you can measure. Not a slide deck.
Animation timing, easing, and transitions are written into the Figma file rather than left for a developer to interpret. What ships matches what was designed.
iOS follows the Human Interface Guidelines and Android follows Material Design 3, so users on either platform get an app that fits the phone in their hand.
Three full revision rounds per platform. The app doesn't go near the stores until the design is genuinely right.
We test screen reader support, dynamic type, and colour contrast on real devices with assistive technology turned on, not just through an automated checker.
Separate. The two platforms use different navigation patterns, typography, and interaction conventions. A single design that tries to serve both usually comes up short on one of them, so we deliver platform-specific screens for each.
We set up a responsive layout system at the start and test it across the breakpoints that matter. The important screens are designed for small, regular, and large phones, and we add tablet layouts when the app actually calls for them.
Wireframes are static. They show layout and flow with no visual polish. The prototype is a clickable version your team taps through to check that the structure makes sense before we put time into high-fidelity design. Each stage has its own sign-off before we continue.
We follow the patterns each platform's users already know: iOS gets edge-swipe back, system fonts, sheet presentations, and haptics, while Android gets Material Design 3 components, the back gesture, and dynamic colour. The goal is that an iOS user never notices it was designed for two platforms, and neither does an Android user.
We build a component-based design system in Figma with tokens for colour, type, spacing, and elevation, plus reusable components with variants. That keeps the app consistent, makes future screens faster to design, and gives your developers a clear mapping from Figma components to code components.
We design to WCAG 2.1 AA from the start: minimum contrast ratios, tap targets of at least 44pt on iOS and 48dp on Android, and labels for screen readers. We also design how the app behaves with dynamic type and larger text, then verify with VoiceOver and TalkBack on real devices rather than relying on an automated checker.
We specify each gesture (swipe, long-press, pull-to-refresh, edge-swipe back) per platform so it matches what users expect there. Micro-interactions like button states, loading transitions, and haptic feedback are documented with timing and easing in Figma, so the build reproduces what was designed rather than improvising.
Three full revision rounds per platform are included. Feedback is collected per stage (wireframe, prototype, high-fidelity) with a sign-off before we move on, so changes happen when they are cheap to make rather than after high-fidelity screens are done.
You do. You receive the full Figma files, the design system, and the source assets with no lock-in. If you bring on another team later, or want to extend the app yourself, everything you need to keep working is yours to keep.
Yes. If you have brand guidelines, a logo, colour palette, or an existing design system, we build on top of it and adapt it to mobile conventions for each platform. If you do not have one yet, we create the foundations as part of the work.
Tell us where the project stands right now. Within one working day we'll come back with a straight read on scope, timeline, and cost. There's no commitment in asking.
