App Development in Dortmund: From Design to Marketing

Developing a powerful app for your business doesn't have to be an obscure undertaking. Our proven process creates clarity – from the initial idea to go-live.

01

Conception phase

Concept development, user experience design, and prototype creation

Once the concept and design are finalized, we begin developing and implementing your Android and iOS app. Thanks to modern frameworks, there's no need to develop separate apps for both platforms – we serve iOS and Android simultaneously. This allows you to optimally allocate your budget to the most important elements: solutions that delight users and offer real added value.

free
02

Platform-Specific Development

App Development in Dortmund for Android and iOS

We ensure that the application functions flawlessly on all common smartphones and tablets, appealing to a wide user base. We leverage the ability to serve both platforms with a single codebase – for maximum reach with minimal additional effort.

03

Robust Backend Architecture

Scalable and powerful backend solutions for your app

App development often requires a powerful backend. To securely manage access data and other important information, it must be stored and synchronized. Thanks to our expertise in software development, we handle this area internally – the close collaboration between backend developers and app programmers prevents coordination issues from the start.

04

Targeted Marketing

Top-tier marketing for your native apps and web applications

Once your apps are available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, it's time for marketing. Our team ensures that web design, performance, and marketing are perfectly coordinated. Thanks to our expertise, we can effectively and strategically present your project in Dortmund.

Louis Nell

CEO

Louis was never one to do things by halves. As a developer at the railway company, he programmed software that revolutionized the system – and was quickly scrapped precisely for that reason. Frustration turned into opportunity: he quit and founded KNGURU. Today, Louis and his team develop digital products that offer real value – and aren't hindered by corporate politics.

Ivan Prosic

Lead designer

Four years ago, KNGURU was looking for a designer. Ivan responded on Reddit, participated in a design challenge despite a packed schedule – and prevailed. Today, he's our Lead Designer and, according to him, can even operate Figma in his sleep. He has a knack for pixels – and incredible patience for clients who "just want a quick tweak."

Team Ivan image

Vera Grosse

Project Manager

Vera came as an intern – and simply never left. Today, she juggles clients, projects, and designers simultaneously (and still finds time for a shisha). She's the only person on the team who voluntarily opens Excel spreadsheets – and even with enthusiasm. Plus, Vera can implement project plans faster than Ivan can swim (which he reluctantly admits).

Strahinja Nikolic

Graphic and Product designer

Strahinja is not just a designer, but a true go-getter. He builds his own businesses on the side, thinks like a founder, and knows exactly how UX becomes not just beautiful, but profitable. With KNGURU for years, indispensable for years. Always by his side: his dog Bebba, our unofficial team mascot (no, that's not Bebba in the photo).

What services does a React Native agency in Dortmund offer?

A React Native agency in Dortmund develops apps that run seamlessly on iOS and Android. Thanks to React Native, cross-platform solutions are created that are powerful and cost-efficient – always with an emphasis on appealing design.

Why are web apps a good choice for businesses?

Web apps run directly in the browser and do not require a store installation. They are particularly suitable for B2B applications, dashboards, and internal tools – cost-efficient, platform-independent, and quickly ready for use.

Can I make changes to my app later?

Yes. We design your app so that content and features can be easily adjusted as needed – even without technical knowledge, using user-friendly tools.

How long does app development take?

The duration varies depending on scope and complexity. Simple applications can be ready in a few weeks, while larger projects may take several months. We plan the steps in advance and keep you constantly informed about the progress.

How are technical issues handled after launch?

Should any issues arise after launch, we'll provide quick solutions. From troubleshooting to regular updates, we ensure your app runs stably at all times and meets your requirements.

What Does Your App Cost?

Naturally, the more features your app has, the higher the costs will be. Therefore, we always recommend developing the app as compactly as possible initially and then expanding it incrementally later.

App Agency Dortmund- Innovative App Development for All  Platforms

progressive web apps

A Combination of Website and App

A cost-effective alternative for manageable projects is the Progressive Web App (PWA), which is particularly suitable for business processes if you don't want to invest heavily. PWAs are based on classic web applications and use advanced JavaScript technologies to be accessible offline – launchable via a shortcut like a native app.

PWAs are not available in app stores and don't always offer the same user experience as native apps. However, they cover all platforms with a single codebase and can be developed cost-effectively from existing websites. For Dortmund companies that quickly need a dashboard or an ordering platform, a PWA is a very practical solution. If demand grows, the codebase can later be converted into a full-fledged hybrid app.

cross-platform apps

One App for All Devices

If you want to offer the user experience of a native app without having to serve each platform separately, cross-platform apps are the optimal solution. They allow you to target all mobile operating systems with a single codebase.

We consistently rely on this approach and use modern frameworks like React Native and Flutter. This ensures that your app in Dortmund performs optimally across all platforms in terms of design, performance, and functionality.

Programming and App Development in Dortmind: KNGURU - Your Specialist for Custom Apps

Tailored Digital Applications

For app development in the Ruhr area, we focus on tailored, needs-oriented solutions. Our goal is to support you with unique approaches and help you stand out from the competition.

The first step is a detailed consultation where we analyze competitor offerings and uncover potential. Based on this, we develop creative solutions with strong USPs – combined with a design that delights even the most demanding users.

Long-term Support and Further Development

The go-live often marks just the beginning of the real work. Regular updates are necessary, and it's important to respond to feedback from app stores.

To ensure that new team members don't constantly need to be onboarded, not only our project managers but our entire development team are permanently employed. This allows developers to support your project long-term – ensuring nothing gets lost.

Digital Transformation as a Strategic Advantage

Successfully implementing a digital project requires in-depth expertise in all key areas. Outsourcing this can lead to a loss of speed, quality, and overall vision.

For this reason, as a full-service app agency, we offer all necessary expertise in-house. Whether it's backend, marketing, programming, or design – at KNGURU, all experts work hand in hand for your product.

Efficient App Development: The Technologies Behind Our Apps

Compelling Mockups with Figma

To ensure that Android and iOS apps meet the original goals, it is crucial to involve clients early in the development process. Clickable prototypes are particularly useful.

Instead of getting bogged down with IDEs or code, we rely on Figma – it's fast, cost-efficient, and intuitively testable. We export the design as HTML, which then serves as the basis for further development.

React.js for Limitless App Development

Once the prototype is approved, we begin the implementation phase with the powerful tools of the React ecosystem. From versatile React.js to Next.js for server-side rendering and React Native for cross-platform apps – the close integration of these technologies ensures that the codebase can be efficiently reused even with growing demands.

Reliable Backend with AWS and Firebase

For secure data storage after launch and to ensure a stable backend, we rely on proven solutions.

By using AWS and Firebase, we minimize the need for dedicated servers. These platforms provide the necessary capacity even during peak demand and largely handle backups and data security.

App development with React Native and cloud technologies.

We rely on state-of-the-art technologies in app development to ensure your app remains stable even with a high number of users.
