Startup App Development

Mobile apps can help transform startups into bonafide rising stars in the industry. The right team is usually hard to find, but we’re more than happy to stand as the exception. Big Human knows mobile app development for startups, and we’re ready to get started on the next big thing.

We’re an NYC-based technology, design, and branding agency with the tools to build solution-based resources for early startup stage and well-established brands (and those in-between). Tackling the increasingly competitive app marketplace can be tricky, but we’re not one to shy away from a challenge.

A successful app doesn’t just come together. It’s created through strategic approaches to solving problems that users might not even know exist. At Big Human, we’re built on the idea that solution-based strategies for modern businesses should go beyond the minimum. We take ideas and cater their growth to a shared vision we develop with our clients. Every project is tailored to the startup's needs; nothing is plug-and-play. Whatever the need might be, we’re here to build a better way to achieve goals in the app marketplace.

Quinn, the audio erotica app founded by Caroline Spiegel, has been one of Big Human's clients for a couple of years now. This means we've seen the brand, and the app, undergo significant changes, something our engineers considered from the beginning. We chose a react-native media player so the app could support all file types and perform seamlessly, and we incorporated the headless CMS Contentful into the tech stack, supporting all of the content uploaded to Quinn.

Our approach to startup app development is always multi-functional. Users continue to have higher and higher expectations — no matter the app they download — and we always want their experience to be both satisfying and unique. 

Speed and efficiency while using the app

One of the most critical components of user experience is the speed at which an app loads. If it takes too long, users will likely delete the app and forget about it. We make sure that doesn’t happen by building apps with speed in mind.

Easy-to-navigate pages and menus

Users won't stick around for long if they can’t find what they need— our developers for startups design with UX as a top priority. Your app will become a user favorite with a clear and concise design.

Clear and informative descriptions of categories and products

The best way to keep users engaged is by providing them with enough information to make an informed decision. We include detailed product descriptions and categories so users know what they’re getting at every step of the way.

A positive shopping experience from start to finish

We make it easy for your customers to shop, find products they love, and check out quickly. Our app development for startups is bespoke; we design efficient customer journeys that will help you reap benefits (like lower cart abandonment rates and increased sales).
