As an iPhone or iPad user, you may have wondered who developed the apps that you use every day. The answer is often independent developers who create amazing apps in their spare time, or full-time developers working for a company that specializes in iOS development. If you’re looking for quality iPhone or iPad apps, then you need to find a good iOS developer.
Apple’s iOS operating system is one of the most popular in the marketplace. It’s renowned for its simplicity, reach, and quality. And because it’s backed by Apple, it comes with a degree of stability and service that other mobile app development systems simply can’t match. If you’re looking to develop an iOS application, we’d love to come alongside you and support your project in any way we can.

We Build iOS Apps that Deliver Results!
There are plenty of iOS developers in the industry, but few have the experience and detail orientation that our Dev.co team brings to the table. Whether you’re looking for a team to develop an app from scratch, optimize an existing app, or consult with you regarding other iOS projects, we’re fully equipped to walk you through the process from beginning to end.
Why Choose iOS?
Tens of millions of people are familiar with iOS from the user side of things,
but what makes it such an important framework as an iOS developer?
Here are a few of the key benefits:
Loyal user base.
Very few brands across any industry or sector have as loyal of a following as Apple. Its well-established community provides a stable and competitive user base - making it the perfect audience to serve your world-class app. Apple users are some of the most loyal customers in the world. They are passionate about their devices, and they are always looking for new and innovative ways to use them. iOS developers need to be aware of this passion and tap into it. When creating an iOS app, you need to make sure that it is not only functional and user-friendly, but also stylish and appealing to Apple users.
Exceptional security.
Apple requires iPhone apps to meet rigorous standards of quality and security before they can be introduced into the App Store. Thus, the level of security provided by iOS is exceptional. iOS is a secure platform, and our team of iOS develoeprs takes security very seriously. We use the latest security features available in iOS to protect your data, and we also encrypt all communication between our servers and your app. We understand that security is important to you, and we will never compromise on the security of your data. We believe that the security of your data is our responsibility, and we will do everything we can to protect it.If you’re looking for a framework that makes you less susceptible to viruses, hacking, malware, and phishing, iOS offers it.
Amazing UX.
iOS prides itself on offering exceptional user experience. This leads to more satisfied customers who are likely to continue using your application and possibly make additional purchases or investments. Apple's UX and UI are some of the best in the business. They are simple, intuitive, and stylish. They are also always up-to-date with the latest iOS features for their swift programming language. Our team is experienced in designing and developing for Apple devices, and we will create an app that looks great and functions perfectly on all of Apple's devices using the latest iOS graphics APIs. We also use Apple's latest design guidelines to create an app that feels like it belongs on iOS.
Simple yet effective testing.
Apple typically only releases one iOS update every year or so. (Significantly less than Android.) This means fewer updates and testing for existing apps.Apple is known for their high-quality products and attention to detail, and this is evident in their iOS operating system. iOS is simple, intuitive, and always up-to-date with the latest features. We believe in Apple's philosophy of "Quality over Quantity," and we will never release an app until it has been properly tested and meets our high standards. We want you to be confident in the quality of our work, irrespective of programming languages, and we believe that our rigorous testing process is the best way to achieve that goal.
The DEV.co iOS Development Process
Use Case Discovery
There’s a difference between developing an iOS application and developing an elite iOS application. The apps that really stand out from the pack begin with a strong foundation of discovery into both design and various programming languages. This is where we meet with your team to figure out precisely what you want to accomplish and how we can help you get from where you are to where you want to be.
iOS Development Planning
The planning process is where we formulate a thorough strategy for developing an app that allows you to accomplish the goals we uncovered during the discovery phase. We’ll work closely with you to ensure the plan aligns with your vision. When it comes to iOS development, planning is key. You need to have a clear idea of what you want your app to do and how it will function before you start coding. This is why we always start our projects with a detailed project plan. This document outlines every step of the development process, from designing the interface to submitting the app to the App Store.
Design + Develop
Once we’re confident in the plan, we’ll develop your app. This is the most exciting phase of the project - and we’ll keep you updated the entire way! We work closely with our clients throughout the development process, while we apply principles of computer science with exceptional UX and UI design. We want you to be involved in every step of the process, so you can see how your app is coming along and provide feedback on our work. We believe that this collaborative approach leads to better apps and a better overall experience for our clients.
Quality Assurance Testing
No iOS mobile app is complete without thorough testing and debugging to ensure it runs as smoothly as possible. That’s why we invest a great deal of time and resources into ongoing testing. iOS app development is a complex process, and it's important to have a rigorous testing process in place to ensure that your app functions correctly. This is where our QA team comes in. Our QA team is experienced in testing iOS apps, and they will rigorously test your app for correctness, functionality, and usability. They will also test for compatibility with different devices and iOS versions. We believe in quality assurance, and we will not release an app until it has been properly tested. We want you to be confident in the quality of our work, and we believe that our QA process is the best way to achieve that goal.
