We are true experts in advanced mobile applications for iOS and Android platforms. We’re experienced in many industries including fintech and telecoms, building messaging apps, social platforms, mobile banking software and more.
We started building complex iOS apps when the first iPhone launched, and have been developing our talents with every new release. We understand the Apple ecosystem, and how to create high-performing software.
Our specialist knowledge includes:

We know Android inside-out, building advanced apps on this platform since 2012. We’ve amassed a wealth of experience in Android native development, getting the very best out of its ecosystem.
Our specialist knowledge includes:

We combine deep knowledge of native iOS and Android with cross-platform solution Flutter. Backed by Google, it means we can build apps for both operating systems using one codebase.
Our specialist knowledge includes:
React Native is a powerful framework used for building cross-platform applications. Backed by Facebook, it’s another great option when creating apps for Android and iOS platforms using one codebase.
Our specialist knowledge includes:
Everybody is together in the same office. It’s better for team spirit, problem-solving and instant knowledge sharing.
All our layers are glued together using the Reactive programming paradigm. That way we get reactive data flow inside the app so users experience real-time changes.
We take advantage of the very best on the market, avoiding spending time developing standard elements and instead dedicating resources to valuable features.
Rigorous testing processes make sure everything we deliver meets very high standards, and all our code is specifically written to be testable, maintainable, and to easily incorporate new features.
We understand how to develop reusable and high-performance UI components that are in line with Apple Human interface guidelines and Material guidelines.
We handle the entire approval process from start to finish for both Google and Apple stores, guiding you on the best practices for optimal approval.
We’ve loved working with many fantastic companies, and are really proud of what we’ve achieved together.

Don’t worry, whatever it is, we’ve got you covered in our FAQ.
Some of the most common errors in Android development that others do but we don’t:
Back in 2014 we made our first production real-time chat using WebSockets.
Since then, we have moved on to ejabberd XMPP which has excellent support, both on the server and client side, making development and creating features like ‘seen’, ‘delivered’ and similar functionalities quicker and simpler.
But we don’t just use that. When working on the Fling app we actually worked directly with ProcessOne, the awesome guys who created ejabberd. They took care of the server side, while we in DECODE handled the client side. Later we also worked with Erlang Solutions XMPP platform MongooseIM and some other proprietary technologies.
As far as third-party services are concerned (where there isn’t so much room for hard-core modification) we have tried out TokBox, Twilio and Bandwidth, and used Sinch (a tool from the same category which also offers audio and video communication).
Yes. In today’s environment, being agile is one of the most important things. Being agile doesn’t mean a lack of processes, but rather the opposite. Having good efficient processes and a strong working methodology helps us to be agile and at the same time organized and predictable.

Yes, we also do maintenance.
We see that as continuous work after the first version is published. Releasing the first version of a software product is just the beginning. Our belief is that the real work begins after launch.
So we strongly encourage you to plan your budget so you can have a dedicated team working on your project after launch (this could be in reduced capacity). This option gives you confidence that the team monitors how the project behaves in the real world and acts quickly based on the data from the field.
Also, to create a successful product, you should iterate it based on the usage analytics – your users know best what they need.
We like to automate everything to reduce human error whenever possible. Being able to implement sustainable continuous integration workflow is very important so we can deliver new versions regularly and often, ensuring there’s no regression and everything works as intended.
We have written multiple articles about this topic available to read here:
Native apps, as the name suggests, are used to build apps for a specific platform – iOS or Android – and so the programming language used would differ based on the platform.
For native Android app development, developers program with languages such as Java or Kotlin. For native iOS app development, we have a choice of Swift or Objective-C. As the native apps are written for a specific platform, they are more responsive, faster, and perform better in terms of animations. Native apps are also preferred over cross-platform apps when data protection and security is crucial.
Cross-platform apps, also known as hybrid apps, are coded once and run on multiple platforms. We can use different technologies to develop hybrid apps like React Native, Flutter, Xamarin, and Ionic to code the mobile app, using a browser supported technologies such as Html, CSS, JavaScript. Hybrid apps have their own advantages like a single code base, overall lower development cost, easy maintenance, and faster delivery.
