Mobile App Design in Marietta, GA
Your app is fighting for attention on a screen full of other apps. We design mobile experiences that earn a permanent spot on your users' home screens, not the trash folder.
The Problem
Most Apps Fail Because Nobody Designed Them for People
Most apps fail for the same reason: they were built by developers who think about features, not by designers who think about people. An app can work perfectly and still collect dust on someone's phone because it feels like a chore to use.
We approach app design from a research-first angle. We figure out how people will actually use your app in the real world, then design around those behaviors. Not the other way around.
We start with the one or two things your app needs to do really well. Then we make those actions dead simple. Every screen, every button, every animation serves a purpose.

Why It Matters
To Make the Cut, Your App Has to Feel Worth Opening
The average smartphone has 80+ apps installed. Users actually use about 30 regularly, and spend most of their time in just 10. To make the cut, your app needs to feel worth opening.
People use apps while walking, waiting in line, or half paying attention. Great design accounts for this with big touch targets, clear hierarchy, and quick task completion. If the interface looks dated, confusing, or generic, they close it and may never come back.
Screenshots and first impressions drive download decisions. Professional design gives you an edge whether building for internal use or the public app store. Polished design builds trust, and that trust turns into daily use.

Platform Design
Designing for iOS and Android
iOS and Android users expect different things. Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and Google's Material Design have different patterns. We respect those differences so your app feels right on every device.
We design apps that feel native to each platform while keeping your brand identity strong. That might mean different navigation patterns or gesture interactions depending on the device.
For businesses in Marietta and Cobb County launching apps, we help you decide whether to build for both platforms right away or start with one. It depends on your audience and your goals.
Platform Conventions Matter
iOS and Android users expect different things. We respect those differences so your app feels right on every device, following Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and Google's Material Design patterns.
Native Feel, Brand Consistency
We design apps that feel native to each platform while keeping your brand identity strong. Different navigation patterns and gesture interactions are tailored to match each device.
Cross-Platform Strategy
Should you build for both platforms right away or start with one? We help you decide based on where your audience actually is and what makes sense for your budget.
Our Process
Our Mobile Design Process
We follow a research-first process that starts with understanding your users and ends with developer-ready design files. No guesswork at any stage.
Understanding
What is this app supposed to do? Who will use it and where? What does success look like for your business? We learn your goals before we design a single screen.
User Research
We do not skip this step. We talk to real potential users, study competitor apps, and figure out how people currently handle the tasks your app will replace.
Information Architecture
What features does the app need? How should they be organized? What is the navigation structure? We map out the logic before we touch any visual design.
Wireframes & Prototypes
We create low-fidelity layouts showing screen structures and flows, then build clickable prototypes. Testing with real users catches problems early, when they are cheap to fix.
Visual Design
Colors, typography, icons, imagery, micro-interactions. Every visual choice serves a functional purpose alongside looking good. We build a design system that fits your brand and speaks to your users.

FAQ
Mobile App Design Questions We Get Asked
Do you build the app too, or just design?
We focus on design but can help coordinate development through trusted partners. Some clients want us to manage the whole project. Others take our designs to their own developers. Both options work great.
How long does app design take?
Most app design projects take 6 to 12 weeks depending on how many screens and features are involved. That includes research, UX design, UI design, prototyping, and documentation. We can move faster if needed, but cutting corners on user research usually costs you more later.
Should I build for iOS, Android, or both?
It depends on who your users are. If most of your audience uses one platform, start there. For a broader audience, building both at the same time often makes more sense. We will help you figure out the right call for your situation.
What if I already have a developer?
That works well for us. We hand off detailed specs, assets, and documentation that developers need. We also stay available during development to answer questions and make sure the finished product matches the design.
What makes your approach different?
Our design process is rooted in UX research and real user behavior, not just making things look pretty. We figure out what your users actually need before we start designing. That means fewer surprises and less wasted time during development.
