Mobile App Development
iGears builds iOS and Android apps for organisations, churches, schools and businesses in Hong Kong, connected to memberships, bookings, notifications and your existing systems. After launch we update each app for Apple's and Google's yearly requirements, reducing the risk that it can no longer be updated.
- Requirements, design, development, testing and App Store and Google Play release in one place
- After launch, App Care rebuilds and updates the app each year to meet store requirements
What's included?
How we work
We first understand users, features and connected systems, then provide a written quotation and schedule. We demonstrate progress in stages and move to App Care after release.
Who owns the app
We recommend opening Apple and Google developer accounts in your organisation's own name. iGears helps with registration, release and management; the contract sets out the arrangements.
What we build
Membership and events
Membership cards, event registration and push notifications
Bookings and services
Bookings, reminders and service records
Churches and NGOs
Gathering and event information, giving or donation links and notifications
Internal apps for staff
Staff notices, forms and approvals, connected to internal systems
Taking over an existing app
We take over apps built by other companies: first review the source code, store accounts and current release requirements, then plan updates or a rebuild
After launch: App Care
Apple and Google update their store requirements every year: Google Play's target API level and 16 KB memory page support, for example, and Apple's minimum Xcode version. An app that misses the target API requirement can no longer publish updates, and new users on newer Android devices may not be able to find or install it.
- A yearly rebuild, test and release to meet store requirements
- Checks after major OS updates
- Small changes, depending on the plan
From HK$9,600 a year
