Read articleWhat we write about
We publish what we learn shipping products, not recycled advice. Every guide comes out of real client work: the decisions, the trade-offs, and the numbers behind them. Expect concrete figures over vague ranges, honest trade-offs over sales pitches, and checklists you can act on the same day. These are the areas we cover.
Budgeting a build
What an app actually costs, broken down per feature so you can build a realistic spreadsheet before you talk to a single vendor. Covers the platform trade-offs that move the total, and the running costs that most quotes quietly leave out.
Launching on the app stores
Getting through review and finding an audience once you are live. Developer account setup, store readiness, policy compliance, and the monetization models that still hold up six months after launch rather than just on day one.
Keeping an app healthy
Shipping is the start, not the finish line. Release cadence, OS version churn, and the maintenance work that decides whether an app is still worth opening two years in. The unglamorous part that quietly protects the investment.
Working with developers
What the roles actually mean, what good work looks like, and how to tell a solid technical partner from an expensive one. Useful whether you are hiring in house, briefing a freelancer, or choosing a studio to build the whole thing.
