How We Create Solutions

App Development Process:

1. Initial Contact: Share your app idea with us, either through a summary or the Project Brief form. We’ll conduct initial research based on your inquiry.
2. Introduction: We’ll get in touch via email or phone to discuss your project and provide initial thoughts on key app development elements.
3. Project Brief: To provide a quote, we’ll need a detailed project brief with as much information as possible. Attach any relevant documents or images.
4. Prototype Development: After reviewing the project brief, we create a prototype that demonstrates the basic look and functionality of the app. This allows you to visualise the concept and provide feedback before moving to full development.
5. Estimate and Development: Once the prototype is approved, we’ll provide a final cost and time estimate. After agreement, work begins. Throughout the process, we keep you informed and involve you at key stages to ensure your vision is being realised.

Project Development and Quality Assurance

1. Project Scope/Estimate: We collaborate with you to define features, audience, technical requirements, and timelines. This process typically takes two weeks and may include a wireframe to outline the app’s workflow.
2. Wireframe: We create a detailed wireframe to clarify any ambiguities and help you visualise the app. This document finalises the app’s design and functionality.
3. Prototype Development: A prototype is created to demonstrate key features, giving you the opportunity to test and refine the app’s core functions.
4. Development: Our team builds the app with regular client input. Screenshots, videos, and device simulators are shared to keep you updated. We also use TestFlight to provide you with early access to development builds, enabling you to test the app on real devices and offer feedback throughout the process.
5. Acceptance Testing: We guide you through setting up TestFlight or other emulators and provide support to deploy development builds on physical devices. Your feedback is vital, and we encourage your active involvement during testing.
6. Deployment: We either deploy the app for you or assist you in managing your own app store account. Apps are always deployed using your app store account, and we provide support for the setup process.

Changes and Integration:

• Requirements Changes: We maintain close communication to accommodate new or changing requirements, adjusting the budget if needed.
• Client Integration: We work with your existing IT infrastructure and procedures to ensure seamless collaboration.
• Source Control: We use industry-standard source control software to manage versions and minimise the risk of lost code.

Feedback: We welcome suggestions to improve our processes and aim to be your go-to app development partner.https://www.smarterapps.com.au/applications-prototyping-commercial-consumer-products
