Healthcare and Wellness apps

The emergence of iOS healthcare and wellness apps is something even the leading pharma companies have to come to terms with, what with all the data and engagement. These apps provide a wide range of functionalities, from tracking physical activity and monitoring vital signs to offering personalized diet plans and mental health support. With features such as real-time health data integration from wearable devices, virtual consultations with healthcare professionals, and medication reminders, they empower users to take proactive control of their health. Wellness apps also offer guided meditation, stress management techniques, and sleep tracking to promote holistic well-being. The convenience, accessibility, and personalized nature of these apps make them an invaluable tool for anyone looking to improve their health and maintain a balanced lifestyle.

Staff management apps

With a well-crafted iOS app, you can optimize operations, boost team communication, and significantly enhance workflow efficiency.
For instance, in logistics companies, custom iOS apps can offer features like real-time GPS tracking for deliveries and assets, route optimization to find the quickest and most cost-effective paths, and automated task management systems that assign and update tasks based on location, availability, and priority.

When to choose native iOS app development over cross-platform?

One of the most common questions our clients ask when beginning a mobile app project is whether to choose native iOS app development or go for cross-platform development. The answer isn’t one-size-fits-all: while we often advocate for cross-platform solutions, the best choice depends on your specific needs and goals.

Here are some scenarios where we recommend native iOS app development as the optimal choice:

  • If you need a high-performance app that fully utilizes the capabilities of iOS devices, native development is the way to go. Native apps have direct access to hardware and iOS system features, making them ideal for such cases.
  • Choose native if you want the UX to strictly adhere to iOS Human Interface Guidelines. This includes the smoothest animations and transitions, along with other “standard” user expectations for long-time iOS users.
  • If your app relies heavily on advanced device features like the accelerometer or other sensors, native iOS development allows for more sophisticated control and reliability in using these features.
  • Market segment: If your market research shows that your primary user base prefers iOS devices, investing in native iOS development ensures the best results.

However, the range of scenarios where cross-platform development is becoming comparable to native is expanding. Having one codebase shared across multiple platforms can be very appealing, particularly if budget and time constraints are factors. The final decision rests with you, and we’re happy to provide consultations to help you make the best choice.

Our Approach to iOS app development

Focus on the app’s primary goal

The most crucial factor influencing user adoption of any iOS app is how effectively it performs its primary task. Additional functionalities cannot ensure success if the main purpose of the app is neglected or inadequately addressed. Therefore, we define the app’s core objectives and prioritize features based on how well they align with key user scenarios, avoiding unnecessary “vanity features” and focusing on what truly matters.

Meticulous UX conceptualization

Apps are designed to simplify tasks, not complicate them. Few users enjoy the learning curve associated with new apps, so we prioritize creating intuitive user experiences. Our UI/UX designers view iOS applications from the perspective of potential users, implementing best practices to design a user-friendly application. This approach ensures that the app’s potential is embedded into its concept from the very beginning.

Security and robustness

iOS apps are increasingly being used in industries that handle sensitive data or influence significant decisions, such as finance, healthcare, and logistics. This necessitates the rapid evolution of security practices and technologies. At Lionwood, we are dedicated to implementing the necessary measures to ensure your app functions correctly, prevents data loss and leaks, and protects user privacy.

Clear process

We empower our clients with the control they need, keeping them informed and enabling them to make crucial decisions throughout the project.

In-built flexibility

One of our core principles in developing iOS apps is to ensure the codebase is easily adaptable for future improvements and maintenance. Mobile applications operate in a highly competitive and volatile environment, not only due to market fluctuations but also because user devices are constantly evolving. We build apps to endure these challenges and remain functional and relevant over time.

Frequently asked questions
Typically, a simple iOS app with basic functionalities may cost anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000. However, more complex apps with advanced features, custom designs, integration of third-party services, and backend infrastructure can range from $50,000 to $250,000 or more. Factors that influence cost include the complexity of the user interface, the need for backend development, integration with external APIs, and the level of security and compliance required. It's important to note that the cost estimate for iOS app development is highly individualized to each project. To provide an accurate quote, we conduct a thorough analysis of your app requirements during the initial consultation phase. This allows us to understand your specific goals, functionality needs, and technical specifications, ensuring that the development cost reflects the scope and complexity of your project accurately. You can use our calculator at the top of the page for an approximation.
Generally, a simple iOS app with basic functionalities can be developed within 3 to 6 months. This timeline includes phases such as initial concept and planning, UI/UX design, development, testing, and deployment to the App Store. For more complex iOS apps that require advanced features, integrations with backend systems, and rigorous testing, the development timeline may extend from 6 months to over a year. Factors that can influence the timeline include the need for custom animations, complex database structures, integration with external APIs, and compliance with industry standards or regulations.
