Creating Apps That Truly Deliver for Indian Markets

For years we've been learning what makes mobile apps succeed in India. It's more than just writing code—it's about grasping your users, their devices, and how they actually interact with technology. That's our starting point for every project we take on.

How We Begin

Before coding a line, we take time to grasp what you're aiming to achieve. Seriously, this phase matters more than most realise. We've witnessed too many apps stumble when this step is skipped.

1

Understanding Your Business

We meet with you—often over a warm drink—and dive into what your business truly requires. Not the latest trend or what a rival released. We examine your particular challenges, your users' behavior patterns, and what success will look like for you half a year from now.

2

Technical Planning

This is where we outline the technical approach. We assess device compatibility across a diverse market—so your app runs on a three-year-old Android device just as well as the newest iPhone. We also design for intermittent connectivity, which remains a reality for many users.

Design Foundation

We produce wireframes centered on real user journeys. No frills yet—just ensuring the app’s structure makes sense before we commit to polished visuals. This saves weeks of revisions later when a flow proves unusable for your users.

Our Development Principles

We craft apps in increments. You’ll observe milestones every fortnight, rather than waiting half a year with radio silence. This approach helps us catch needed adjustments early when they’re easy to fix.

  • Iterative builds: We deliver functional pieces gradually. You evaluate them with real users while we continue building. The feedback guides what comes next, so the final product better aligns with what your market desires.
  • Platform-native approach: We don’t use one-size-fits-all solutions. iOS users expect specific interactions. Android users expect others. We create native experiences that feel right on each platform instead of forcing compromises.
  • Performance focus: Apps need to be fast, especially on mid-range devices common across the region. We optimize from day one, not as an afterthought. Load times, battery usage, data consumption — these all influence your users' daily experience.
  • Security integration: Payment gateways, user data, business information — it’s all built with security layers from the start. We follow industry standards and stay updated on local compliance requirements.
