Mobile app development services are dedicated external teams that design, build, and maintain iOS, Android, and cross-platform applications on your behalf, operating as a direct extension of your in-house capability. Scrums.com provides those teams through our SEOP platform with real-time delivery visibility, transparent usage-based pricing, and full integration with your existing tools and sprint cadence from day one.
Native iOS apps built with Swift and SwiftUI. Your team gets access to the full iOS feature set: widgets, live activities, Face ID, Apple Pay, and the latest platform APIs. Optimised for App Store approval, performance, and compliance with Apple Human Interface Guidelines. Covered in detail on our iOS App Development service page.
Native Android apps built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. Reach billions of users across devices, screen sizes, and Android versions. Full access to Google Play services, Firebase integrations, and the Android hardware ecosystem. Covered in detail on our Android App Development service page.
Build once, deploy to both iOS and Android with React Native or Flutter. Faster time-to-market with a shared codebase, without sacrificing native performance for most use cases. The right choice for most B2B and SaaS mobile applications where 30 to 40 percent cost savings matter. Covered in detail on our Cross-Platform Development service page.
Secure, scalable mobile applications for enterprises: SSO, role-based access control, system integrations, audit logging, and compliance support. Built for organisations with complex workflows, regulatory requirements, and high security standards. Dedicated engineering teams matched to your domain and seniority requirements.
Bespoke mobile solutions for unique business requirements. Custom features, proprietary integrations, complex business logic, and workflows that off-the-shelf apps cannot accommodate. Fully owned code, no third-party dependencies, and architecture matched to your roadmap. See our Product Development as a Service model for fixed-scope builds.
Ongoing support for mobile apps after launch. OS compatibility updates, security patches, performance monitoring, bug fixes, and feature enhancements. Monthly plans with no lock-in and proactive monitoring through the Scrums.com platform. Covered in our Software Maintenance and Support service.
Most mobile app development companies keep you in the dark: weekly reports, fixed retainers, and lock-in contracts. Scrums.com is built differently. Our platform gives engineering leaders full visibility, our pricing is usage-based, and contracts are month-to-month after the initial quarter.
Every mobile app engagement runs through the Scrums.com Software Engineering Orchestration Platform (SEOP). Your CTO or engineering manager gets direct access to sprint progress, developer output, time tracking, and project documentation, without waiting for a weekly status call.
For FinTech and Banking teams where delivery auditability matters, this is not a nice-to-have: every sprint, commit, and delivery milestone is logged and accessible in real time through the platform.
You pay only for the developers, designers, and QA specialists you use each month. No retainers on idle resources, no hidden fees, no surprise invoices at the end of a sprint. Scale your team up for a major release and down between milestones without penalty.
Our nearshore South African engineering team delivers the same quality as US-based agencies at 50 to 60 percent of the cost. Transparent rate cards, visible time tracking, and no markup on third-party tooling.
After your initial engagement quarter, your contract is month-to-month. You own 100 percent of the code, designs, and intellectual property we produce. If we are not delivering the results you need, you leave. No exit fees, no data ransom, no contractual obligation holding you back.
This model works because we earn your business every month through engineering output and quality, not through switching costs or 12-month contracts.
Four phases. First sprint in under 21 days.
Deliverable: Technical specification, sprint roadmap, and named team deployment schedule.
Deliverable: Team operational, full visibility live in SEOP, complete app designs ready for development.
Deliverable: Working app builds delivered every two weeks. Compliance evidence automated and audit-ready.
Deliverable: Live apps in both stores. Maintained, updated mobile application from launch onward.
Our mobile engineers work across native and cross-platform stacks. We adapt to your existing tools and infrastructure. Stack changes are only recommended when they materially improve delivery outcomes, not because a new framework is trending.
Mobile app development pricing varies based on platform choice, feature complexity, team composition, and compliance requirements. The variables that move the number most:
These are not commitments. They give you a realistic frame for planning:
Permanent African engineering talent combined with AI-augmented delivery produces mobile applications at 40 to 60 percent lower cost than US and UK agencies, without compromising seniority, App Store quality standards, or delivery predictability. Usage-based pricing, no retainers on idle resources, no lock-ins.

Real-time tracking, route optimisation, and warehouse management mobile apps for logistics and supply chain operators. We build driver apps, last-mile delivery tools, inventory management platforms, and IoT-connected mobile solutions for high-volume, real-time logistics requirements.
High-throughput mobile commerce, omnichannel customer apps, and loyalty platform integrations for retail and e-commerce operators. We build consumer shopping apps, in-store associate tools, and DTC mobile storefronts handling large transaction volumes and complex inventory dynamics.
Companion mobile apps, white-label platforms, and B2B mobile tools for SaaS and technology companies. We build mobile extensions of web platforms, rapid MVP launches, and enterprise mobile products for SaaS organisations scaling from product-market fit to enterprise readiness.
Low-latency mobile apps, customer self-service portals, and IoT-connected interfaces for telecommunications operators. We build mobile billing platforms, network management tools, and customer experience apps for telcos where uptime and scale are baseline requirements.
Claims apps, customer portals, and broker tools for InsurTech and established insurers. We build mobile insurance platforms aligned to POPIA, GDPR, and ISO 27001 standards, including AI-driven fraud detection, document capture, and on-demand insurance models.
Mobile banking apps, customer portals, and self-service platforms for retail and commercial banks. Security-first architecture, role-based access control, full audit trails, and AML/KYC compliance engineering built into every sprint. Aligned to Basel, SOC 2, and DORA standards.
Our core domain. We build mobile payment apps, digital wallets, trading platforms, lending apps, and financial onboarding flows for fast-moving FinTech companies. Deep experience with PCI DSS, PSD2, cross-border payment rails, and DORA operational resilience requirements.
Mobile app development typically costs between $50,000 for a focused MVP and $300,000 or more for a complex enterprise application. Key cost drivers include platform choice (native iOS and Android costs more than cross-platform), feature complexity, design requirements, and backend infrastructure. At Scrums.com, we use transparent usage-based pricing so you pay only for the resources you actually use each month.
A well-scoped MVP takes 3 to 4 months from discovery to App Store launch. A full-featured application with multiple user roles, backend integrations, and custom design typically takes 6 to 9 months. Complex enterprise applications can take 9 to 12 months or longer. We work in two-week sprints so you see working builds continuously rather than only at project end.
Native development uses platform-specific languages: Swift and SwiftUI for iOS, Kotlin and Jetpack Compose for Android. It delivers the best performance and access to the latest platform features, but requires two separate codebases. Cross-platform development using React Native or Flutter uses a single codebase for both platforms, reducing cost and time by 30 to 40 percent with minor trade-offs on performance.
If your target market is the US or Western Europe, or revenue per user is a priority, start with iOS. For global reach or emerging markets, Android has broader reach. If budget allows, cross-platform development with React Native or Flutter lets you launch on both platforms simultaneously at lower overall cost.
Yes. Mobile apps require continuous maintenance for OS updates, security patches, bug fixes, and feature enhancements. We offer monthly maintenance plans starting from $2,000 per month, with proactive monitoring, fast response times, and no lock-in contracts.
You do, 100 percent. All code, designs, assets, and intellectual property we produce for your mobile application are yours from day one. No licensing restrictions, no proprietary frameworks, and no data lock-in.
Yes. We can pick up incomplete projects, maintain apps built by other teams, and modernize legacy mobile applications. We audit your current codebase, identify risks and technical debt, and build a plan for completion or modernization.
