App Development

Apps where the app is the product.

Native iOS and Android plus cross-platform, for consumer apps, D2C loyalty, content, and marketplaces.

We build mobile apps for products where the app is central — not companion apps nobody installs. Native when you need deep platform integration, cross-platform when you need to ship faster. We'll also tell you when the answer is 'don't build an app, build a better mobile site.'

/OUR APPROACH/

An app is not a website with bigger tap targets.

We take app projects when the mobile experience is the product — when users will open it weekly, not once. Companion apps built for marketing reasons rarely justify the investment, and we'll say so before you write the check.

/WHY BACLINC/

Why brands pick us for app development.

We'll recommend against an app if it's wrong

Sometimes the honest answer is 'build a PWA' or 'invest in mobile web instead'. Most agencies won't tell you that.

Design, engineering, content under one team

App UX, brand voice, and launch content all sit in the same team. No handoffs between vendors.

Realistic timelines

A focused MVP on one platform lands in 8–16 weeks. We front-load scoping so we don't slip mid-build when the feature list grows.

Post-launch is built into the plan

Apps decay without maintenance. OS version compatibility and crash-free rates need ongoing attention and we scope it in.

Client Feedback

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything brands ask us about App Development

What kinds of apps does Baclinc build?

We take on projects where the mobile app is central to the product — D2C loyalty apps, content platforms, marketplaces, and consumer apps where the app is the primary touchpoint rather than a companion to a website. We don't build "please install our mobile app for no reason" companion apps; that category rarely justifies the investment.

Native or cross-platform — which does Baclinc prefer?

Depends on the product. Cross-platform (React Native, Flutter) is faster and cheaper when the UX is standard and the platform APIs are shallow. Native (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android) is better when you need deep platform integration, serious performance, or custom hardware. We'll tell you honestly which your project needs — and we're comfortable recommending "don't build an app, build a better mobile website" when that's the right answer.

Does Baclinc handle app store submission and review management?

Yes. ASO (App Store Optimization), store listing copy, screenshots, app preview videos, and the actual submission-and-rejection cycle with Apple and Google. Getting an app approved the first time is a craft — rejections cost days or weeks, and most of the reasons are avoidable if you know what reviewers look for.

Can Baclinc integrate the app with an existing backend or CMS?

Yes. Typical integrations include custom REST/GraphQL APIs, Firebase, Supabase, Shopify Storefront API for e-commerce apps, payment gateways (Razorpay, Stripe), analytics (GA4, Mixpanel, Amplitude), and push notification services (OneSignal, Firebase). If your backend exists, we integrate; if it doesn't, we build it.

What does app development cost at Baclinc?

Project-based and scoped against complexity. A well-scoped single-platform MVP usually lands at a different price point than a two-platform production build with backend, admin panel, and ongoing retainer. For a real quote, contact hello@baclinc.com with a rough feature list and we'll come back with a scoped proposal in a few days.

How long does building an app actually take?

A focused MVP with core functionality is typically 8–16 weeks for one platform, longer for two. Timelines get slower if the feature list keeps expanding mid-build, which is why we front-load scoping and lock down a v1 definition before writing code. Shipping a usable v1 fast and iterating beats shipping a bloated v1 late.

Does Baclinc handle ongoing app maintenance, OS updates, and new features?

Yes. Post-launch retainers cover OS version compatibility (iOS and Android ship major updates annually and both break things), dependency upgrades, bug fixes, analytics instrumentation, and incremental feature work. An unmaintained app decays fast — usually within a year it starts crashing on new OS versions.

Can Baclinc build apps for content or media businesses?

Yes. Content and media apps are a sweet spot because they sit next to our content-creation and SEO work — you get editorial strategy, content production, and the app under the same team. Sabchalo (millions of organic views via short-form) is an example of the kind of content business where app and content strategy need to be co-designed.
