iOS app development · iPhone & iPad
CKC Technologies designs and develops native iOS apps in Swift for businesses and founders across the UK. Clean design, dependable performance and software that’s simple to use — the same approach behind our own apps on the App Store.
What we do
Whether you have a sketch on a napkin or a detailed spec, we can take your app the whole way — or help with just the part you need.
01
We help you sharpen the idea, decide what belongs in version one and turn it into a clear plan with realistic costs.
02
Interface design that follows Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines, so your app feels instantly familiar to iPhone users.
03
Built natively for iPhone and iPad in Swift and SwiftUI for speed, battery life and access to the latest iOS features.
04
We prepare screenshots, descriptions, privacy details and submission, and guide your app through Apple’s review.
05
Every app needs a website presence. We build and host your app’s landing, support and privacy policy pages.
06
We keep your app compatible with new iOS releases and devices, fix issues and add features as your users ask for them.
Our apps
The best way to show what we can do for you is to do it for ourselves. Each of these apps was created end-to-end by the CKC team.
A voice journal for people who never got journaling to stick. Instead of a blank page, you speak — a minute a day, no editing, no pressure.
A tiny notebook for catching gift hints in two seconds. When a birthday or anniversary comes up, Crumb resurfaces every hint you saved for that person.
A private place for every pet you’ve ever loved — a beautifully simple iPhone and iPad app for honouring the companions who shaped your life.
A private log of dishes, not restaurants — built around the one decision you face again and again: what should I order here?
How we work
Step 01
We talk through your idea, users and goals, then agree the features for a focused first version and a fixed quote.
Step 02
We design the key screens and user journeys and share clickable previews, so you can see how it will feel before we build.
Step 03
We develop in short iterations and share TestFlight builds, so you can try the app on your own iPhone as it takes shape.
Step 04
We handle App Store submission, launch your support pages and keep improving the app with updates after release.
FAQs
How much does it cost to build an iPhone app?
It depends on the number of screens, features and any connections to other systems. A focused first version costs far less than an app with every feature at once. After an initial conversation we’ll scope the app with you and give you a fixed written quote.
How long does it take to build an iOS app?
A focused first version of a typical app takes a few months from agreed design to App Store launch. Simpler apps can be quicker. We’ll give you a timeline when we quote, and share TestFlight builds throughout so you can see progress.
Do you build Android apps?
We specialise in native apps for iPhone and iPad, built in Swift and SwiftUI. Focusing on Apple’s platforms means faster, more polished apps that make full use of iOS features.
Will you publish my app on the App Store?
Yes. We prepare the App Store listing — screenshots, description, keywords and privacy information — submit the app to Apple, handle review feedback and support the launch. The app is published under your own Apple Developer account.
Can you also build the website for my app?
Yes. As a website design and hosting company, we can build and host your app’s marketing page, support page and privacy policy, which Apple requires before an app can go live.
Tell us what you’d like your app to do. We’ll give you honest feedback, a sensible first version and a clear quote.
