iOS and Android app development, with a track record
Plenty of people offer to build an app. Few can show you one they designed, coded, published and still maintain. Jonathan Beaupré, founder of JobeLabs, built RinkLog, a hockey stats app available on iOS, Android and the web.
- 3 platforms: iPhone, Android and web browser, with the same data everywhere.
- Over 25 charts to track a player's performance through the season.
- Works offline: enter data in an arena with no signal, and it syncs later.
- Bilingual, in English and French.
- Rated 5.0 on the App Store, launched on July 31, 2026.
Shipping RinkLog meant solving the real problems of an app: Apple and Google review, data sync, offline use and updates after launch. That experience goes into your project. See it in the portfolio.
An app, or a good website?
Honestly, most local businesses don't need an app. A customer who wants your hours or a booking won't download an app for that. A fast website with online booking does the job, costs far less and shows up in Google. An app makes sense when:
- customers or staff use it often, weekly or daily;
- it has to work offline (job sites, arenas, the road, a warehouse);
- it uses the phone itself: camera, location, notifications;
- it replaces an internal process done on paper or in spreadsheets;
- it is the product you sell.
How a custom app project works
- The idea: a free 20 minute call to understand who will use the app, for what, and what must be there at launch.
- The mockup: the main screens are designed and approved before any code is written.
- The fixed price: a written quote lists the features, the price and the timeline.
- Development: you get test builds on your own phone to follow progress and give feedback.
- Publishing: store listings, screenshots and text, then submission to the App Store and Google Play until approval.
- Follow up: fixes after launch, updates for new iOS and Android versions, and new features as needed.
What affects the cost of an app
App pricing depends heavily on what it has to do, which is why it's quoted after the discovery call rather than posted. The main factors are the number of screens, user accounts and roles, offline mode and sync, payments and integrations with your tools, an admin area, notifications and a web version.
