iPhone Application Development
Rich user experiences can be created with Apple's SDK for native iPhone applications. We can develop your concept into an application ready for sale or for your use using the features the iPhone SDK provides. These programs run natively on the iPhone without the need for a solution based on a remote web server. They are demanding and complex applications that provide a fluid and unique experience for your users.
Using the Features of the iPhone
Some of the features of the iPhone that can be used in applications we can develop are:
- Standard iPhone controls (buttons, text fields, tables, etc.)
- Access to network resources over the internet
- Audio recording and playback
- 2D and 3D graphics and animation
- Detect the user's location
- Video playback
- Integrate with the user's address book
- Access the accelerometer to detect device orientation
Some limitations imposed by Apple are:
- Running more than one application at once or in the background will not work
- Modifying the behavior of other applications is not possible
- Applications must be sold through Apple's online App Store
- Some functionality seen in Apple-supplied applications is not possible in third-party applications
Our Services
Our goal is to develop your application quickly with your budget in mind as well as deliver a quality product. We can code your idea from your specification or work with you on your concept. If you have everything necessary for the project except a programmer then we can help you. If you need a complex application designed from the ground up then we can work with you on this process as well.
We either work by the project or by the hour depending on the scope and complexity of the application you intend to develop. Contact us and we will give you a quote if your application is feasible.
Our Process
Applications for the iPhone are written in Objective-C initially on a simulator on a Mac and then tested on an actual iPhone. We can also develop for the back-end on platforms such as Linux using technologies such as C++, Perl, Java, PHP, XML-based web services and SQL.
We actively work with you during the development process so that we get the correct look and feel to your application and catch bugs as early as possible. You will need to be accepted by Apple into the iPhone Developer Program and have an Intel-based Mac in order to test the application. Please contact us for more information. See our portfolio page for iPhone projects we developed. We will discuss your projects with you for free.
