Why Avinya for mobile apps. One team for the apps, the web platform and the backend.
Three apps, one backend
Our platforms run iOS, Android and web on one shared backend, so features ship everywhere at once.
Built to grow
Modular domains mean new features slot in without rebuilding the app.
AI where it helps
Recommendations and personalisation built into the product, not bolted on.
We stay after launch
QA, releases and monitoring continue after the first version ships.
Results from the apps we built. Each number links to the engagement it came from.
Engagement models. Pick the shape that fits where you are.
Dedicated team
A dedicated team that works as an extension of yours, from first release to scale.
Project-based
A defined scope, milestones and delivery date for a specific product or workflow.

Do you build native or cross-platform apps?
Our delivered platforms use native iOS and Android apps. We choose per product, based on the features, the budget and the roadmap.
Can the app share a backend with our website?
Yes. Project Nova runs three client applications, iOS, Android and web, on one shared backend, and Project Atlas connects three applications to one unified backend platform.
Can you publish the app to the App Store and Google Play?
Yes. Store releases, regression testing and performance monitoring are part of the delivery.
Can you add AI features to a mobile app?
Yes. Project Nova uses AI-assisted recommendations, and Project Atlas uses AI-driven study paths.
How long does it take?
It depends on scope, platforms and integrations. We agree milestones up front and review a working version at each one.
Who owns the code?
Ownership, licensing and handover are agreed in the contract before work starts.
How do you choose a mobile app development company?
Look at shipped apps, how they handle security and how they plan releases after launch. As a mobile app development company we check apps against the OWASP Mobile Application Security Verification Standard.
