Affordable app development, built for local businesses

Most app development is set up for big companies and custom platforms, so prices are hard to find and projects take months. A neighborhood business usually needs something simpler: its own icon on customers’ phones, a fast way to call, book or get directions, and a way to tell regulars what’s new.

That’s what we build. We start from the website you already have and turn it into a real app with features a website can’t offer on its own:

When an app is worth it, and when it isn’t

An app makes the most sense when customers come back again and again: appointments, regular orders, classes, memberships or repeat jobs. Those customers keep your icon on their phone and actually see your notifications.

If most of your customers buy once and never return, or you rarely have news to share, a strong website may be all you need, and we’ll tell you that in the consult. (We build websites too.)

How it works

  1. Free consult. We look at your website and pick the features that fit your customers.
  2. You open your developer account. Apple’s program is $99 a year, paid to Apple, so the app is listed under your business name. You add us as App Manager. No passwords shared.
  3. We build, you test. You try the app on your own phone and approve it. Nothing is submitted without your OK.
  4. We submit and handle review. We take care of the store listing and any changes Apple ask for.

Once your developer account is ready, most Starter Apps are ready to submit in about 1–2 weeks. Store review timing is up to Apple.

Local, hands-on and in your name

We’re based in Las Vegas and work with businesses across the valley, from the Strip and Downtown to Henderson, Summerlin and North Las Vegas. You talk to the people building your app, you approve every step, and you own the app and the developer accounts. If you ever stop working with us, you remove our access and keep everything.

iPhone app development across the Las Vegas valley

We work with businesses all over the valley: the Strip and Downtown, Henderson, Summerlin, North Las Vegas, Spring Valley and the Southwest. Every app is built for iPhone and published under your own business name.

FAQ

How much does an app cost in Las Vegas?

Our Starter App is $997 one-time and turns your website into a branded iPhone app. The Plus App is $1,997 one-time and adds 1–2 new features built in. A fully custom app, designed from scratch, starts at $3,997. Apple’s $99/yr developer fee is separate and paid by you directly. For a deeper look at what goes into app pricing, see our guide What does a small business app cost in Las Vegas?

Is it a real app or just my website?

It’s a real app built from your website, with features like push notifications, tap-to-call and directions added on top. Apple’s App Store rules ask apps to offer more than a repackaged website, so we build those features in from the start.

Do you build fully custom apps?

Yes, within reason. Our Custom App starts at $3,997 and is designed from scratch, with your own screens and features, customer logins and connections to tools you already use. We scope it in a free consult and send the exact price in writing first. For very large platforms like marketplaces or games, we’ll tell you honestly if we’re not the right fit.

What does it cost after launch?

Apple charges $99 a year for your developer account. You pay those directly, so the app stays in your name. App Care is optional at $49/mo for updates, small content edits and keeping your app live through Apple's yearly changes. Cancel anytime.

Do I need to be in Las Vegas?

We’re a Las Vegas studio and local businesses are our focus. The whole process works by email and video call, so you don’t need to meet in person.

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.

Do you design the app too?

Yes. We design and build the app, including your icon, screens and App Store screenshots. See how our app design works.
