Having an app built by Pinch means working closely with a team of enthusiastic specialists who are fully committed to achieving the best possible result together with you.
During development, a dedicated project manager at Pinch oversees the entire process and manages communication between you, our developers, and designers who work on your app every day. We build Android, iOS, and Flutter apps.
Building an app: more than just development
A great app is about more than just the technology. We support you from idea to launch to make sure your app becomes a success. We do this by identifying your target audience, clarifying the problem the app solves, and determining the features that are truly needed. Curious about our full process?
Most of the apps we develop are for the mobile operating systems Android and iOS. Since iPadOS shares the same architecture as iOS, our iOS apps can generally run on iPads as well (unless we block that intentionally due to non-optimized UI).
We build native Android apps in Kotlin and native iOS apps in Swift. Pinch is also one of the leading Flutter development agencies in the Netherlands. Flutter is a cross-platform framework that allows developers to build both iOS and Android apps at the same time. Read more about this on our Flutter page.
We also develop applications for wearables like smartwatches. The Android version is called Wear OS; for iOS, it’s watchOS. Some manufacturers use their own operating systems for wearables, such as Samsung Tizen, Garmin OS, and Fitbit OS.
The time it takes to build an app depends on several factors — such as the number of screens, the types of features needed, and whether a solid backend is already in place. The technology used also influences the timeline. In general, a Flutter app can be developed faster than two separate native apps for iOS and Android. Whether Flutter is the right choice depends on your app’s features and complexity. We’re happy to advise you. Curious when we can get started and how long your project might take? Feel free to reach out.
The cost of building an app also depends heavily on the app’s complexity and the technology used. We create apps for well-known brands, media companies, and startups. We’d love to hear your ideas and show you how we can help bring them to life.
Having an app developed by Pinch
From our offices in Amsterdam and Málaga, a team of senior developers and designers work closely with clients to build top-quality apps that stand out. We’ve developed over 100 apps for clients like NRC, De Telegraaf, and Qmusic — and we’re proud of it.
