The experience has been nothing short of outstanding. From the initial consultation to the final product, Alty's professionalism, expertise, and dedication have exceeded my expectations. Alty has demonstrated a deep understanding of mobile app development and was willing to go the extra mile. Their ability to translate my ideas into a seamless, user-friendly, and visually appealing app is truly impressive

Dogtown Media Reviews & Testimonials

Web App Review from Michael Paskow
Dogtown media helped to develop a new cross-platform app and web portal for a sleep health study involving insomniacs for the National Sleep Foundation. The team was reliable and developed an excellent experience for end-users. It has been a great experience working with DTM. The team is reliable and communicative. They come up with creative solutions and are always available for any and all maintenance issues that arise. Although I am not well-versed in pricing for app development, I do feel that the pricing may have been a little too steep. That said, the work they have produced is excellent, and I'm very happy I got to work with the team at DTM.

Call Centers Review from John Shammas
We've really enjoyed the time spent with Dogtown and their support in our product initiatives. They have always been readily available to talk through design ideas, technical challenges, or feature improvements. Communication has always been solid, with a reliable stream of beta builds (delivered to our own devices to test out) and detailed patch notes. We look forward to working with Dogtown on more projects in the future!

eCommerce Development Review from André Schörnig
We have been working with Dinarys on our Shopify store for quite some time, and the experience has been great. From the very beginning, communication was clear, efficient, and reliable.

Web Design Review from Undisclosed
I hired Fingent to create a web-based application for my website's visitors. They communicated their strategy effectively and adhered to our agreement.

Custom D have been fantastic in building our new website; they're fast, efficient and have been extremely helpful in addressing our concerns and answering questions. We have had a great experience using them and expect to have a good long working relationship going forward.
Tania Hill's Review Sourced from Google
As part of the voluntary administration group for the Inspire Foundation, I have worked closely with Julie and the Custom D team in the setting up of the Foundation's online application process. The team have been amazing to work with, finding solutions for the step by step processes as we worked our way through the implementation of the online system. Starting from scratch, their ability to grasp our needs quickly and clearly most certainly went a huge way towards creating a seamless process from what was a daunting prospect in the beginning. The open communication lines and prompt results greatly impressed me and I whole heartedly recommend Custom D as THE company to go to for all of your software, website and database design requirements.
Inspire Foundation's Review Sourced from Google
Custom D, are world class software and database designers. they built a website with intranet and an online application system for our Foundation which allows the processing of hundreds of applications for grants whch can be viewed and assessed in real time by our selction panel. The system was designed from scratch, modified and developed during the development process and then enhanced with user experience feedback.it worked first time, it is user friendly. Custom D had staff changes and never dropped the ball in delivering a brilliant piece of software for us that all our team use and appreciate.

Very poor customer service. They are extremely slow in replying and are not even bothered to send you a quote. They treat you like they do not care at all. Unfortunately in Switzerland you often come across this unfriendly business attitude. I would not recommend them to anyone!The below response is inaccurate. I have never sent them my budget, I have just told them about another quote I got. Their attitude is really not business friendly.

Big Fish Reviews & Testimonials
Eric Wexler's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Big Fish App Development was a fantastic experience. Sara and her team were professional, helpful, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with throughout the entire project. Building an app or software can be a stressful undertaking but Sara really takes an organized approach and explains the process step by step. Her deep knowledge and expertise really showed, and she consistently met deadlines while being flexible enough to work at whatever pace was needed.Big Fish was thorough, and always one step ahead — often thinking of things I hadn’t even considered, which made a huge difference in the App. Her input during the development process was invaluable.I highly recommend Big Fish to anyone looking for a skilled and dependable app developer. If you are coming into this with little AppDev knowledge, just know that Big Fish is fair and trustworthy. I couldn’t have asked for a better team in bringing my app and ideas to life!
Swing Time's Review Sourced from Google
These are really great people to work with, and they're based right here in Tampa Bay. I highly recommend Big Fish for app development.
Kym Jenkins's Review Sourced from Google

Holly Bennett's Review Sourced from Google
Studio Almond is a class act; they have supported my firm through various website iterations and pieces of development work; proud to be associated with a home-grown New Zealand brand of such calibre!
Mason Feehan's Review Sourced from Google
We started working with Studio Almond in 2024 after having a challenging experience with the agency who originally built our 3 websites.Since taking over, Studio Almond have provided incredible service with great communication, as well as providing valuable counsel on short-term optimisations and long-term strategy.They've got us out of a few sticky situations swiftly too.I'd highly recommend the team at Studio Almond - good people doing good work.
Cynatra Major's Review Sourced from Google
We’ve worked with Studio Almond for many years now - from initially helping us deliver an award-winning Shopify Plus website to partnering with them on ongoing optimisations that continue to elevate our ecommerce experience.What sets Studio Almond apart is the standard they hold themselves to. They work with integrity, transparency, and a genuine commitment to excellence. At BLUNT, we value technical craft and engineering precision just as much as beautiful design and a meaningful customer experience, and Studio Almond shares that same mindset - never compromising one for the other in their approach to web design and development. That value alignment drew us to them from the start and remains one of the main reasons we continue to work together.What really makes it such a pleasure to work with them though, is that they’re just genuinely great humans, doing great work. We couldn’t recommend them more!

Frequently Asked Questions About App Development Companies
What services do app development companies typically offer?
App development companies usually handle strategy, UI/UX design, development, testing, launch, and ongoing maintenance. Some also provide product research and app store optimization.
How much does it cost to hire an app development company?
App development agencies typically charge between $30,000 and $500,000+, depending on the scope and complexity of the project.
Typical custom app costs by scope include:
- Simple app: $10,000 to $35,000
- Medium-complexity app: $35,000 to $150,000
- Complex app: $150,000 to $300,000+
How long does it take to develop a mobile app?
Most apps take around 3 to 7 months to develop, though the timeline depends on complexity, features, technology, and the development team. Changes in scope, integrations, and testing requirements can also extend the timeline.
- Simple apps: a few weeks to 3 months
- Medium-complexity apps: 3 to 7 months
- Complex apps: 7 to 12+ months
How do I choose the right app development company?
Look at relevant experience, past projects, technical expertise, communication, and post-launch support. The company should also understand your business goals and target users.
What should I look for in an app development company’s portfolio?
Check whether they have built apps similar to yours and review the usability, design quality, and functionality of their work. Pay attention to projects in your industry or with comparable technical requirements.
What track record should I look for in an app development company?
Ask for launch counts, instead of project counts. An app development company that has shipped dozens of live apps has already solved App Store review, retention, and post-launch iteration. Designli, for example, lists more than 200 product launches and traces its process back to Applits, an app studio its founders ran before the agency existed.
What are the top mobile app development companies in 2026?
