Ways to hire mobile app developers in Gladstone

How you hire matters as much as who you hire. These are the three ways businesses in Gladstone work with us, and when each one makes sense.

Fixed-price project

Know the total before we start

Best when you know what the app should do. Written scope, agreed price, milestone payments.

Hourly developer

Pay only for hours worked

Best for small jobs, fixes and ideas that are still changing. Weekly time reports.

Dedicated developer

Your own developer, monthly

A developer who works only on your app, about 160 hours a month. Good for long roadmaps.

Finding a reliable app developer: a quick checklist

We would rather you hire well than hire us. Use this checklist with every developer you talk to:

  • Ask about support after launch. Phones and store rules change every year. Find out who fixes things after launch, and what it costs.
  • Ask who actually writes the code. Some agencies pass work on to other teams. You should know who is building your app.
  • Agree how you will communicate. Settle on a weekly call, a chat channel and one point of contact before work starts.
  • Expect regular test builds. You should be able to try the app every week or two, not only at the end.
  • Make sure you will own everything. The code, the designs and the Google Play and App Store accounts should be in your name, not the developer's.

We are happy to be checked against every point on this list.

How we keep things simple for Gladstone clients

Clear quotes

You get a written quote with a feature list and timeline before any work starts.

Small team, direct contact

You talk to the people actually building your app, not a sales team.

Admin panel included

Most apps come with a simple web dashboard so your team can manage users, orders and content.

Real-world experience

We have built field apps used across hundreds of sites, so we plan for poor signal, busy staff and messy data.

Staying in touch from Gladstone

When it is 2:00 PM in Gladstone, it is 9:30 AM in India all year round. Our team is available from 10 AM to 11 PM India time, which leaves about 4 hours of a normal Gladstone working day for live calls. In practice, we hold calls in your afternoon and build while you sleep, so you wake up to progress.

How app pricing works for Gladstone clients

Prices are determined by the complexity of your app and the time involved. Every app is different, so we quote each project on its own.

Post your project with a short description and we will send a clear, no-obligation quote, usually within a few hours.
