Your iPhone App
Built and Shipped
Not Handed to a Freelancer
Most iOS agencies pitch beautiful apps on the call and then quietly route the work to whoever is available that week. When Apple rejects your build, nobody knows why. We have a full in-house team, a 14-year track record, and 512 verified reviews. We pick up the phone when it matters.
An iOS Development Company That Builds What It Quotes
The iOS development market has a structural problem. Talented iOS developers are expensive, so agencies win work with a low quote and then route it to whoever costs less to keep on staff. You get a developer who has never worked with your codebase, does not know your business logic, and is not there when Apple flags your app for guideline violations three days before your launch.
Every iOS developer at CV Infotech is a direct employee. They sit in our Gurugram office. Akash Singh reviews the architecture before work starts. When a client in Australia called Laura Maher asked about the time difference, she got a straight answer: “Barely notice it. Communication is 10 out of 10.” That is the standard. Not because we say it. Because 512 verified Freelancer reviews say it about project after project.
We build native iOS apps in Swift and SwiftUI for clients who need the full performance and platform integration of a native build. When both iOS and Android are required, we recommend Flutter or React Native — a single codebase that reduces cost by 30 to 40% without sacrificing the features that matter. We tell you which approach fits your project, not which one we prefer to bill.
In-House Only
No freelancers. No subcontractors. Every iOS developer is a direct CV Infotech employee in our Gurugram office. Your code stays within our team.
App Store Expertise
We have navigated Apple's review process hundreds of times. We know what triggers rejection and we build against it from day one.
NDA Before Discovery
We sign confidentiality agreements before you share a single screen or feature description. No exceptions.
Long-Term Accountability
Our average client relationship exceeds 3 years. We build apps we intend to maintain, update, and improve alongside your business.
What We Build and How We Build It
Native iOS Apps
SwiftUI for iOS 15+ projects. UIKit with Swift for backwards-compatible builds or precision animation requirements. The right choice for your target audience and OS version.
SwiftUI vs UIKit — Our Honest Take
SwiftUI is faster to build with and produces cleaner code for most apps. UIKit gives finer control for complex animations and hardware integrations. We recommend SwiftUI for new projects unless your feature set specifically requires UIKit — and we explain why.
iOS API and Platform Integrations
Apple Pay, Face ID, Touch ID, HealthKit, CoreLocation, ARKit, Core ML, StoreKit, and Push Notifications. Scoped and priced individually so you choose what to include at launch and what to add later.
Cross-Platform iOS + Android
Flutter or React Native when you need both platforms. Flutter delivers near-native performance from a single codebase. We give you an honest cost comparison before recommending either direction.
App Store Submission and ASO
We prepare every element of your App Store listing — screenshots, preview video recommendations, keyword-optimised description, age rating, privacy manifest. We manage the review process and handle rejections.
iOS Security and Compliance
Certificate pinning, ATS configuration, Keychain storage, biometric authentication, GDPR-compliant data handling, and HIPAA-aware architecture for healthcare apps. Security is scoped from discovery, not added after launch.
The iOS Team Your Clients Will Never Know Is in India
Laura Maher works with us from Australia. She said she barely notices the time difference. That is the version of offshore development that actually works — not the version where you send a brief into a void and receive something unrecognisable three months later.
This engagement is not the right fit if you:
- ·Want the lowest quote without regard for what it buys
- ·Need development to start without a discovery call or written scope
- ·Have a development idea but no user validation that anyone wants it
- ·Expect unlimited revisions with no agreed scope boundary
If any of those apply, we can point you toward tools that fit better. We would rather tell you now than three months from now.

512 Verified Reviews
Freelancer.com. 5.0 rating. 14 years on the platform. No iOS competitor in this search result can cite a comparable third-party verified review count.
No Outsourcing Policy
The same developer who is in the discovery call builds your app. No handoffs to unknown subcontractors. No surprise changes in who you are speaking to.
$30/Hour — Published
Fueled charges $150 to $200/hour. Appinventiv does not publish a rate. We charge $30/hour and we write the scope before we charge anything.
Apple Review Experience
We have been submitting apps since 2012. We know what Apple rejects, why they reject it, and how to write the app description that passes first time.
From Brief to App Store in 6 Stages
Every iOS project follows the same structure. The Apple review process is factored in from day one, not bolted on at the end.
Discovery and NDA
Week 1NDA signed before this call. We review your brief, map the feature set, and ask the questions that surface hidden scope risks — Apple-specific compliance requirements, existing backend dependencies, target iOS version.
Deliverable: Signed NDA and discovery notes document.
Scope and Tech Recommendation
Weeks 1-2Written scope with SwiftUI vs UIKit recommendation, feature list, excluded scope, hours per feature at $30/hour, total cost, and payment schedule. You see every line item before you agree to anything.
Deliverable: Scope document and signed agreement.
UI Design and Architecture
Weeks 2-4Figma wireframes and high-fidelity screens for every user flow. Data model, API structure, and third-party integration map approved before a line of code is written.
Deliverable: Approved Figma designs and architecture document.
Development Sprints
Weeks 4-16 depending on scopeTwo-week sprints. Working TestFlight build sent to you at the end of every sprint. You test the real app on your iPhone, not a prototype tool.
Deliverable: TestFlight build after each sprint with sprint review notes.
QA and App Store Preparation
Weeks 14-18Testing across all supported iPhone and iPad models. Privacy manifest completed (required by Apple since 2024). App Store listing written, screenshots prepared, rating selected. Review rejection risks identified and mitigated before first submission.
Deliverable: QA report, App Store listing, and submission-ready build.
App Store Launch and Handover
Weeks 16-18Submitted to Apple. Review managed by us. Any guideline feedback responded to and resubmitted at no extra cost. Full codebase, credentials, and documentation delivered on approval.
Deliverable: Live App Store listing, source code, and 30-day post-launch support window.
