Augment

Mobile app design & development.

One team to design your app, build it for iOS and Android, and keep it healthy — through App Store submission and every OS release after.
We can help.

An app earns a spot on the home screen, or it gets deleted.

People give a new app one session to prove itself. If it’s confusing, slow, or doesn’t feel native, it’s gone — and a year later there’s no one keeping it current with the platform either. We can help.

Use cases

Mobile app problems we can help with

After designing, building, and supporting apps across both stores, we’ve seen these before. Tell us yours, and we’ll map out a plan that works.

  1. 01

    An idea, but nothing to show yet

    You know the app you want to build, but there’s no design, no prototype, nothing to put in front of users or investors. We turn the idea into a clickable app you can test on a real device in weeks, not quarters.

  2. 02

    A web product that needs a real app

    Your mobile web experience is a compromise and everyone knows it. We design a native app around how people actually hold and tap a phone — not a shrunk-down version of the site.

  3. 03

    An app people install and never open again

    Downloads are fine, retention isn’t. We rework onboarding, navigation, and the first-run experience so people get to the value fast and come back.

  4. 04

    An app that feels dated

    It shipped years ago and hasn’t kept up with the platform. We modernise the interface to current iOS and Android conventions while keeping the workflows your users already know.

  5. 05

    iOS is good, Android is an afterthought

    One platform got the attention and the other feels like a port. We bring both to the same standard, each following its own platform’s patterns.

  6. 06

    Nobody owns it after launch

    The build team moved on, and now OS updates, crashes, and store rejections pile up. We stay on — monitoring, fixes, new OS support, and the next set of features.

Getting one team to design, build, and keep your app healthy is harder than it should be

Design studios don’t ship code. Dev shops don’t sweat the experience. Freelancers vanish before the first OS update breaks something. In-house mobile is expensive and slow to hire. So the app ends up being nobody’s job.

Problem

Dev shops quote a fixed build, then treat every change as a new contract.

Solution

One rolling engagement — design, build, store submissions, and updates handled as they come.

Platforms/ 02

iOS, Android, or both

We design and build for each platform on its own terms. Which route fits depends on the product — we’ll tell you which one and why on the first call.

Swift · SwiftUI

Native iOS

For apps that need to feel unmistakably at home on iPhone and iPad, and to reach every system capability first.

  • Full Apple Human Interface Guidelines fit
  • Widgets, Live Activities, App Clips
  • TestFlight and App Store submission
Kotlin · Jetpack Compose

Native Android

For a first-class Android experience across a wide range of devices, following Material rather than a mirror of iOS.

  • Material 3 design and motion
  • Adaptive layouts for phones, foldables, tablets
  • Play Console setup and staged rollout
React Native · Flutter

Cross-platform

For one codebase across both stores when speed and a shared team matter more than platform-specific depth.

  • One design system, both platforms
  • Faster path to a live app on iOS and Android
  • Native modules where it actually matters

One team from prototype to
the App Store, not a gamble

No handoffs between a design studio, a dev shop, and whoever answers the crash reports. The designers, mobile engineers, and the people who keep it shipping are all Augment, working from one brief.

01

Senior people only

Designers and mobile engineers who’ve shipped real apps to both stores — no juniors learning on your project.

02

One point of contact

You talk to the people doing the work, not an account manager relaying messages.

03

Built to platform standards

Accessibility, performance, and each store’s review guidelines are part of the build, not a scramble at the end.

04

Try before you commit

Start with a free 3-day trial on a real screen or flow before anything is signed.

How we approach mobile app work

Every app is different, but the work usually takes one of two shapes. We’ll tell you on the first call which one fits — and why.

Full app

We design and build the whole app as one system — every screen around a single set of components. The right call for a new product, a ground-up rebuild, or an app that’s drifted out of step with the platform.

Feature by feature

We start with the flow that matters most — onboarding, the core task, a new module — ship it into your existing app, then extend the same system one feature at a time. Lower risk, faster to a store release.

From idea to the store and beyond

Four stages, from the first conversation to an app that’s live and looked after. Hover any stage to see what’s in it.

01

Discovery

We agree the users, the core jobs, the platforms, and the constraints — before any screens.

You get
  • Users & core jobs
  • Platform & scope decisions
  • Technical & API review
