Frequently Asked Questions

Mobile app development is the end-to-end process of designing, building, testing, and deploying applications for iOS and Android devices. Custom mobile app development means building an app specifically for your business requirements, rather than adapting a generic template or off-the-shelf product.

Mobile app development costs are based on platform choice (iOS, Android, or cross-platform), feature complexity, number of third-party integrations, compliance standards, and team location. Also, you can try our App Cost Calculator to get an estimate of your app budget.

A well-scoped MVP mobile app typically takes 8–12 weeks from discovery to App Store submission. A mid-complexity app with multiple screens, API integrations, and backend development takes 12–20 weeks. A complex enterprise mobile app with offline-first architecture, compliance requirements, and custom backend infrastructure typically requires 5–12 months end-to-end. Timeline depends heavily on scope clarity, decision-making speed on the client side, and the number of platforms being built simultaneously.

Native app development means building separate apps for iOS (using Swift/SwiftUI) and Android (using Kotlin/Jetpack Compose), each written in the platform's own language and optimised for its specific hardware and OS capabilities. Cross-platform development (React Native, Flutter) uses a single shared codebase to build for both platforms simultaneously.

Native apps offer maximum performance and deepest platform integration, but cost more to build and maintain. Cross-platform apps are faster to build and maintain, with near-native performance that suits the vast majority of business applications. We recommend native development only when your app requires deep hardware access, maximum graphics performance, or platform-specific capabilities that cross-platform frameworks cannot support.

Post-launch, Sphinx Solutions provides structured mobile app maintenance and support covering: iOS and Android OS version compatibility updates, crash monitoring and bug resolution, performance monitoring and optimisation, security patching against newly discovered vulnerabilities, App Store and Google Play update submissions, and feature additions on a retainer or project basis. We offer tiered support plans covering monitoring and critical bug fixes, and full managed maintenance covering proactive updates, feature development, and dedicated engineer time.

Yes, AI integration is a core capability of our mobile development practice. We integrate on-device ML models for features that require local processing and offline capability, LLM-powered interfaces for conversational AI and document intelligence features, computer vision for image recognition, barcode scanning, and real-time analysis, and personalisation engines for recommendation systems, predictive UX, and adaptive content delivery. AI is integrated as a core architectural component, not a bolt-on, ensuring performance, scalability, and maintainability.

Sphinx Solutions has delivered production mobile apps across Healthcare & MedTech, Fintech & Banking, Retail & eCommerce, Logistics & Supply Chain, Travel & Transport, Education & EdTech, Food & Restaurant, Entertainment & Media, Automotive, and Manufacturing & Industrial sectors. Each vertical brings specific compliance requirements, integration dependencies, and user experience standards, all of which our vertical-specialised teams are experienced in addressing
