Mobile app development
Built for the work
away from a desk.
Give people the information and actions they need while they are on the move. A good mobile workflow starts with the job, not a smaller desktop screen.
Discuss your projectStart with the
part that gets stuck.
Field updates arrive late, photos lose their context, and the office has to call to find out what happened. Customers need a simpler way to see progress or provide information.
Mobile interfaces connected to agreed backend services.
Explicit decisions on offline behavior, uploads and notifications.
Device testing, release preparation and an agreed support plan.
Offline sync, supported devices, app-store accounts and review requirements are agreed explicitly. Store approval and backend changes are separate dependencies.
See the thinking
in a working concept.
MaintainOS illustrates interface and workflow decisions. It is an original concept, not a claim of client results.

Do we need an app or a mobile website?
We look at repeat use, device capabilities, connectivity and release constraints before choosing the delivery format.
Will it work offline?
Only where offline behavior is designed and tested. We define what can be read or changed offline and how conflicting updates are resolved.
Can it use our current backend?
We assess the available APIs, authentication and data model before agreeing the integration scope.

A short conversation to understand the need, the constraints and the next useful step.
