What do we do ?
We at IT Software Solutions carry out the process of developing Apps for both Android and iOS. We’ve successfully deployed multiple apps to Playstore and Appstore both and have ensured the solutions we have built to scaled to north of half a million active logins per month.
Types of Mobile Apps based on End Use :
There are primarily 2 main categories of Apps:
- Open to Consumer Apps – These apps are built for the general public and can be used by any person once they sign up for it. A good example of this would be apps like Twitter, Reddit or Tinder where users can download the app from the Playstore or Appstore, create an account and start using them.
- Business Apps for Internal Use – These are apps which are specifically built and customized for a business and they are used by employees of that organization only. Example : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dcmewecare&hl=en_IN&gl=US
Types of Apps based on Technology :
Primarily there are 2 types of Apps :
- Native Apps – Native apps are apps which are specifically built and customized for a particular operating system. For example – If someone wants to develop an app for Android, they will have to use Android Studio. In order to deploy this app on an iOS devices, the same app will have to be rewritten in Swift or Objective-C in order to be compatible with the iOS platform.
- Cross-Platform Apps – A cross-platform app can be easily installed and used on any type of mobile device regardless of the operating system. The main advantage of these apps is that they can be quickly deployed on multiple platforms. We specialize in building Apps through React Native which is a cross platform technology.

Process of Building a Mobile App
With each business case being different there has to be a number of steps followed first in order to make sure that the client gets an actual ROI on the mobile app they will get developed. The process of developing a Mobile App involves :
Minimum Viable Product
The very first thing is to come up with an MVP or a minimum viable product. This is a product which has only the core features and nothing else. This is done because it allows us to validate the idea first.
Discovery
After an MVP has been decided, we will have to conduct a discovery session with the client. In this session, we try to understand
- The problem that the client is trying to solve
- The target audience for this product
- The business goals that need to be achieved
- The competition in the market
- The budget that the client has
- The timeline that the client wants to stick to
Design
The next step is to come up with a design for the app. The design will take into account all the goals that have been set in the discovery session and will be in sync with the branding of the company.
Development
After the design has been approved, the development process will start. In this process, the actual coding of the app will take place.
Implementation
After the development process is completed, the app will be deployed on the Appstore or Playstore.
Support
Even after the app has been deployed, our work is not done. We provide support to the client in case they face any issues.
Maintenance
We will also carry out regular maintenance of the app so that it can function properly.
Upgrades
As new features are added to the operating system, we will also upgrade the app so that it can take advantage of those features.
