8Sonics offers app development for small businesses that want an app customers actually use. We design and build iOS and Android apps, set up the backend, handle app store launch and support you after release, with a fixed, itemized quote before any work starts.

Here’s what’s holding you back from building an app: you’ve heard the horror stories. $100,000 budgets. Projects that drag on for a year. Apps that look great but crash constantly. Developers who disappear halfway through. Features that don’t work the way you imagined.
Meanwhile, your competitors launch apps that make it easier for customers to do business with them. You’re stuck watching from the sidelines, wondering if you can afford to compete.
The truth is, you don’t need a six-figure budget to build a quality mobile app. You need app development built for small businesses, by a team that understands your budget and constraints, and knows how to deliver real value without unnecessary complexity.
We build apps that solve actual business problems, not feature-bloated monsters that cost a fortune to maintain.

Many agencies quote five- or six-figure budgets for a basic app, then add discovery fees, testing costs and maintenance packages on top. We work differently: you get a fixed, itemized quote from day one, and we scope your first version around the features that matter most to your customers.
Beautiful interfaces designed specifically for your brand and users. No generic templates. Every screen is prepared to deliver smooth, intuitive experiences.
Native apps for both Apple and Android platforms, or cross-platform development that works on both, depending on your budget and needs.
Secure server infrastructure, databases, and APIs that power your app’s functionality. We build backends that scale as your user base grows.
Strict testing across multiple devices to catch bugs before your customers do. Your app launches polished and ready.
We handle submissions to both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, navigating approval requirements so you don’t have to.
Free support for the first month after launch to address any issues and ensure smooth operation.
Don’t want to choose between iOS and Android? Cross-platform app development lets you build once and launch on both. We use React Native and Flutter, proven frameworks that deliver near-native performance and usually cost less than building two separate apps.
One codebase instead of two means less development time and lower costs.
Launch on iOS and Android simultaneously instead of building successively.
Updates and bug fixes happen once, not twice.
A single development team means better consistency and communication.
Every app needs a backend, the server infrastructure handling data storage, user accounts, and business logic.
We build secure, scalable backends using:
AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure hosting that grows with you
Structured data storage optimized for your app’s needs
Clean interfaces connecting your app to backend services
Payment processors (Stripe, PayPal), social media, mapping services, analytics
Encryption, authentication, and data protection following industry standards.
Apps aren’t “set it and forget it.” Both iOS and Android release major updates annually that require app adjustments.
Our maintenance packages include:
Ensuring your app works with new iOS and Android versions
Addressing issues that emerge with real-world usage
Keeping your app secure against new threats
Maintaining fast load times as your user base grows
Adding new capabilities based on user feedback

App development for small businesses is quoted per project, based on the screens, features, integrations and platforms you need. After a free consultation, you get a fixed, itemized quote before any work starts, so there are no surprise fees. Many businesses start with a focused first version and add features later.
It depends on the features and integrations. A focused first version is much faster to build than a large app with many user types. Your quote includes a schedule with milestones, and you see progress at every stage, from design mockups to testing and app store submission.
It depends on your customers. Many US customers use iPhones, while Android has more users worldwide. If you are not sure, cross-platform app development lets you launch on both at the same time, which is why most small businesses choose it.
Native (separate apps for iOS/Android) offers better performance and access to all device features, but costs more. Cross-platform (one codebase for both) usually costs less, but with minor performance tradeoffs.
