App design for Las Vegas small businesses

A good app feels obvious: customers open it and find what they need in one or two taps. We design iPhone apps for local businesses, from the icon on the home screen to the App Store screenshots, and you approve every screen before anything is built or submitted.

What app design covers

App design is more than colors. It decides what customers see first, how many taps it takes to book or call you, and whether the app feels like your business or a generic template.

How the design process works

  1. Free consult. We look at your website, your customers and what they ask you most, then pick the screens that matter.
  2. Layout and icon. We plan the tab bar, home screen and icon around your brand.
  3. Test it on your phone. You get a test version on your own iPhone, not just a picture of one.
  4. You approve. Change what you want. Nothing is submitted to Apple without your OK.

We design with Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines in mind, so the app feels at home on an iPhone: familiar navigation, clear buttons and room for larger text.

How much design is in each package

Starter and Plus

Designed from your existing brand: your logo, colors, photos and the content already on your website, arranged into app screens with an app icon and App Store screenshots. Plus adds screens for 1–2 new features, like booking, saved favorites or a map.

Custom App

Designed from scratch, starting at $3,997. Screens are planned around how your customers actually use your business, not copied from your website, with customer accounts and features built for you. The scope and price are in writing before work starts.

Need a website designed too?

The Starter App is built from your website, so it helps if the site is current and works well on a phone. If it isn’t, we also design websites for Las Vegas businesses, and the app can follow.

FAQ

Do you only design, or design and build?

Both. We design the app and build it, then handle the App Store listing and submission. You don’t have to coordinate a separate designer and developer.

Can I see the design before it’s built?

You see it on your own iPhone. We send a test version you can tap through, and you approve it before anything goes to Apple.

Will my app look like a template?

Starter and Plus Apps use your logo, colors, photos and content, so they look like your business. If you want screens designed completely from scratch, that’s the Custom App, starting at $3,997.

Do you design App Store screenshots?

Yes. App Store screenshots and the listing text are included in every package.

Can you guarantee Apple will approve the app?

No one can. Apple makes the final call on every app. We build with Apple’s App Review Guidelines in mind, add real app features from the start, and handle any changes Apple asks for during review.
