Android App Development
Develop your mobile app for both Android and iOS with our Android App Development Services. Supporting your project with planning, UX design, development and project management.
Mobile apps are essential for any business looking to expand its reach. With mobile devices now taking the majority share of browsing, an app is one of the best ways to put your business in front of your audience, but only if you choose the right operating system. Android OS is currently one of those that dominate market share. It has a huge audience ready to tap into along with a wealth of other benefits, and leveraging its potential could be just what your business needs to grow.
Why Build Your App on Android
Comprehensive SDKs
SDKs (software development kits) are full of shortcuts for developers, letting us copy code to create advanced features instead of writing from scratch. The better an operating system's SDK, the quicker the apps will be to develop. Android has one of the most comprehensive SDKs that is also completely free, making it simpler to create a fully functioning, high-performance app at quicker speeds. For you, that means fewer development costs and, in the long term, a higher return on investment (ROI).
Fast Development and Deployment
At Scorchsoft, we know what we're doing when it comes to Android. We're very familiar with the operating system and the framework and have plenty of experience developing Android apps. The comprehensive SDK allows us to create complex applications quickly whilst keeping to our high standards. The quicker you have your application, the faster you can deploy it and the more significant competitive edge you'll have. Android stores — like the Google Play Store — are also known for approving and deploying their apps within hours rather than days. Quick deployment is brilliant for your initial launch and updates, ensuring your app's best version is always quickly available. When it comes to app development, never underestimate the power of speed.
Multiple Sales Channels
Other mobile applications can be restricted to specific channels, narrowing your reach. With Android OS, that isn't the case. You don't have to rely on one channel to market your app, but you can diversify and appear on third-party marketplaces or even create your own sales channels. You can develop whole new app stores or publish your application on your website, making sure it appears in as many places as possible to maximise its success. Our team can help you do this, handing the power of app deployment back to you.
Scalable and Very Versatile
By utilising Android Studio, we can help you scale your application and ensure it's responsive across devices. Android Studio incorporates the whole Android ecosystem, from smartphones and tablets to Android TV and wearable devices, like smartwatches. By making your app compatible with these — along with newer and emerging tech like VR and the Internet of Things (IoT) — we can create a universal app that slots easily into your users' lives.
Easily Customisable
A professional app shouldn't look like a copy and paste, which is why it's so important that we can customise your features. Because Android is an open-source framework, this is made simple. We can easily tweak and customise the code, taking advantage of advanced features and flexibility to build creative, innovative applications.
Tap Into a Huge Audience
Android OS has consistently had the largest market share of all operating systems worldwide, dominating other mobile operating systems. It hasn't failed to hold between 70–80% of the market year on year over many years. The audience you can tap into by building an Android application is unbeatable, making it an obvious choice when creating your app. It's also incredibly global. Rather than just marketing to the western world, Android has a vice-like grip over the worldwide market, making it ideal if you're looking to establish your business across continents.
Safe and Secure
No matter your app's end purpose, it's vital you keep it secure from hackers and data breaches. If you're taking in-app payments and storing data, this is crucial. A data breach and leaked customer or business information can have devastating effects on your company's image. With Android OS, we can use their security tools to keep your application safe from malware, viruses, and hackers, all of which is essential for a successful app.

What Our Clients Say
Scorchsoft helped us take our idea for an app and make it a reality. Everything from the planning meeting to decide what we really needed to the project management and execution was great. It was delivered on time - early in fact - and on budget. Highly recommend.
Rebecca PalserDragonfly IntelligenceScorchsoft is a brilliant company with fantastic knowledge of the mobile app industry. From the project management to the development team, they have been the perfect candidate for our project, and we can't thank them enough!
Lance ChorltonGapped OnlineWe're really pleased with the work Scorchsoft has done in developing our web portal! They have been accurate with timelines and budget, delivering a solid product that allows us to monitor and manage patients remotely while they use our novel medical device at-home. The "plan - design - build" approach has worked well and saved us time in the long-run by catching requirements and issues early.
Daniel GreenSensTrainI'm really pleased with how my app came out, it was exactly what I was looking for. The team at Scorchsoft are great at what they do and made the whole process as simple and easy as possible. Being someone who is not very tech savvy the set up and back end operations were done in a great easy to use manner even for myself which makes using my app stress free. Thanks to all the team!
Ruben CarrollMosaic MasterpiecesThe new Flourish Education website has already removed a lot of manual processes, freeing up both schools, candidates and internal employees time. We are delighted with the look and feel which is clean, professional and more engaging. We are also pleased with the decision to have an HD video background on the homepage, and building immediate trust with our clients by giving them a taste of what it looks like in the Flourish Education offices.
James HancocksMarketing Manager, Flourish Education I can't believe how quickly we started to see results with this project. Scorchsoft provided us with graphic-designed mockups of how the app would look once built, and we were able to sell the product for use by our first customer before the product was finished. Since launching in March, we have secured a major television network as a client who now uses Image Approvals to manage the talent approval process for their productions.
