Designing and developing a prolific string instruments tuning app
Building a guitar tuner app for iPhone was an exciting yet challenging case. During development, we leveraged our expertise and set up the infrastructure to handle audio seamlessly.
We wanted to meet the current and ever-changing demands of the sound production industry. However, the main challenge was to configure the microphone to fit the frequency range of specific instruments. At the same time, we had to deal with ambient noise and app confirmation sounds. As you can guess, we nailed all these tasks.

Mobile app development for VIP membership community
There was a vast variety of devices where the SELECT iOS app was installed, and it was an obstacle because the team needed to create a redesign with the same appeal to existing users and introduce new features. For example, a concierge option to help users with their bookings or an extensive search to find a desired hotel.
The whole project took less than four months, followed by continuous improvements: multiple updates, new brand collateral materials, presentations, and new functionalities. The SELECT project remains dynamic, and we are proud to support its continuous growth and transformation.

development process
As an iOS app development company, we create high-performance, friendly, and responsive apps that meet the exceptional standards of Apple devices. To achieve this level of quality, we have developed a comprehensive process that thrives on the Agile philosophy and close collaboration between the experts.
- Step 1
Setting the stage
We start with thorough research of the target audience, potential competitors, markets, niches, and all the important information to shape your future app. This type of planning helps us find the edge that can be used to smooth users’ pains and get ahead of the rivals. Also, it eliminates most of the issues caused by ambiguity in the creation process, like new features popping out in the middle of the development.
- Step 2
Designing the look and feel
Apple has set the bar for the app’s UX. Convenience, easy navigation, accessibility, simplicity, and much more—we strive to deliver these unique experiences when building an iOS app. The team carefully creates the UI design corresponding to the strict demands of Apple, your business, and users, and then tests it with low- and high-fidelity prototypes. With our iOS app development services, we make sure that any person from the target audience can use your app to achieve their goal.
- Step 3
Developing an app
Our team of experts shares a committed passion for clean and functional code. They use the best features of Objective-C and Swift programming languages. Furthermore, we utilize solid back-end services like FastAPI and Ruby on Rails that lay a foundation for a smooth workflow. These tools help us deliver robust products that strengthen your digital services and allow you to scale further, opening up more possibilities in business.
- Step 4
Infusing with services
iOS apps we build are easily integrated with various third-party services, data sources, and content channels. For example, we implement different payment services like Stripe or PayPal, or Zoom for secure video calls, or AI assistants for spam detection. These services expand the potential of your app, making it more convenient and secure.
- Step 5
Testing performance
As an iOS app development company, we believe that application usability and functional performance can’t be compromised. The team leverages the best features of iOS to deliver a smooth response, and then rigorously tests the solutions to check if everything works correctly. While building an iOS app, we conduct different types of tests, including UX, functional, performance, and other testing.
- Step 6
Deploying the output
Apple also has guidelines for a seamless App Store launch, and we strictly follow them. After iOS app testing, the team deploys the application and provides all the necessary services for its distribution. We adhere to DevOps CI/CD best practices, monitoring the product performance, and preparing SRE plans.
- Step 7
Maintaining operability
Developing apps for iOS is one thing, but maintaining them? It also requires a whole lot of expertise. We keep supporting your application after the release with updates, feature upgrades, security patches, bug fixes (if there are any), and other improvements. Our team helps your business scale, enhance its services, as well as satisfy the users.

WatchOS development
Our interest in device versatility goes beyond building apps for iPhone and iPad. We also create applications for the wearables market. With the Internet of Things spreading like fire, wearables are a perfect opportunity for various businesses to extend their reach.
Healthcare, wellness, navigation, communication—many spheres benefit from watchOS development. With more than 18 years of creating apps for these industries, we’ve gained an enormous amount of experience. So our work combines unique OS features with industry expertise.
Benefits of having an Apple Watch app
Globally, around two-thirds of all devices belong to IoT. That’s why diving into the wearables business is profitable. You extend your reach and offer more possibilities.
To help you scale your business, we integrate the wearables experience into the entire application ecosystem. This opens doors to all the advantages of leveraging wearable technology for both you and your customers.

Commute and navigate better
You can make travel more convenient with the real-time directions and navigation prompts. Help people find the way, avoid traffic, and explore new areas without the hassle of pulling out the phone all the time.
Always stay in touch
The Apple Watch app enables users to respond quickly and stay updated while minimizing interruptions. They can receive notifications, messages, and calls directly on their wrist. This makes iOS app usage more convenient, secure, and efficient.

Technologies we use
We carefully pick technologies for our kits: the latest tools and frameworks should be robust, efficient, secure, and responsive. Each tech stack is fully customized to fit your project one hundred percent and solve all tasks. There are some key technologies we utilize to bring your ideas to life. Also, the team can easily adapt your tech or approach if that’s required.
Swift
Being Apple's primary programming language, it's an obvious must for our iOS developers to hold expertise in. Swift has a simple syntax that speeds up the process, and, what’s more, it’s made for high-performance and secure apps. Both qualities are crucial for Apple platforms.
That’s why we use Swift as our main tool of custom iOS app development to create immersive, responsive, and user-friendly multipurpose apps for iPhone and iPad.
Swift UI
SwiftUI is a framework for building user interfaces across all Apple platforms with the power of Swift. Just like the programming language, it’s focused on faster development, cleaner code, and a more intuitive user experience.
What’s more, SwiftUI provides live previews that allow iOS developers to see UI updates in real-time across various devices without needing to rebuild the app. Again, speeds up the whole process. With this framework, we deliver apps that are both functional and provide a consistent, engaging user experience.
UIKit
UIKit is a comprehensive framework provided by Apple that our developers use to create robust, feature-rich apps with intricate designs and advanced functionalities. It provides greater control over the user interface, making the framework suitable for complex designs and animations.
UIKit is mature, stable, and offers customization options. We often use it for building the core infrastructure of iOS, iPadOS, and tvOS apps.
Xcode IDE
We apply Xcode across the entire Apple ecosystem, including iPhone, Apple Watch, Vision Pro, and Apple TV. It is the central tool for developing iOS applications that provides a comprehensive suite of tools for designing, coding, testing, and debugging.
We use the Xcode environment to connect UI controls to the implementation code, parse, and debug it to ultimately deliver versatile and high-performance iOS applications.
Your technology
We don't just rely on familiar tools and technologies. As the industry progresses, we stay in tune with time and always explore new achievements. So we'll gladly learn a new tool, master new technology, or test a new approach if it favors your app and helps enhance the project.
