iOS & Android apps designed for daily use — not just downloads
Most business apps get downloaded once and deleted. Mini-Labs designs iOS and Android apps around the one job your customers do daily — book, order, track, redeem — then engineers the push, retention and app-store presence that keep them coming back.
Everything this system covers
- Product strategy: the one job your app must do brilliantly
- UI/UX design with one-thumb flows and instant loading
- Native-quality iOS & Android via efficient cross-platform builds
- Push notifications and retention loops designed in, not added later
- App Store optimization, launch and analytics
- Post-launch iteration roadmap with real usage data
Measured outcomes, not promises
Common questions, straight answers
A focused single-purpose business app (booking, ordering, loyalty) typically ranges from $15,000 to $45,000 CAD. Startup MVPs with custom backends range $30,000 to $80,000+. We scope fixed after a free audit — and we'll tell you honestly if a mobile-optimized website would serve you better for less.
If customers interact with you weekly or daily — ordering, booking, redeeming points — an app earns its home-screen spot and push channel. If they need you a few times a year, a fast mobile site usually wins. This is exactly the kind of go/no-go call our audit gives you for free.
Yes. We use modern cross-platform frameworks that ship native-quality experiences to both stores from one codebase — faster to build, cheaper to maintain, and indistinguishable from native for business-app use cases.
