Why Choose Garage2Global for Mobile App Development?
A straight chat, not techno‑babble
Look, I’ve seen too many decent businesses stitched up by shiny proposals and soft delivery. Last quarter a founder from Manchester turned up—£80k down, checkout failed on every third purchase. Brutal. We rebuilt the flow (Swift + Kotlin), wired Crashlytics, and within four sprints conversions climbed 37%. It’s not magic. It’s rigour and pride.
- ✔ Strategy first: discovery, user stories, acceptance criteria, MVP scope.
- ✔ Native and cross‑platform: Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, React Native.
- ✔ Transparent pricing, weekly demos, no nonsense.
- ✔ Post‑launch growth: ASO, analytics, lifecycle campaigns.
We remove the fear—rejections, delays, budget blow‑outs
Worried about App Store rejection? Tight budget? Short timeline? I get it. We manage App Store Connect/Play Console end‑to‑end, lock scope early, and show progress every Friday. You’ll always know where you stand. And yes—30‑day warranty after launch.

Client Success Stories & Case Studies
“Honestly, after the first agency blew our budget, G2G were different—tight sprints, plain English, ruthless QA. We hit 10,000 downloads in week one and doubled revenue in a month.”
Sarah L, Retail Director — 5/5
I’ll admit—once, we underestimated a third‑party API rate limit on a logistics build. It stung. We paused, added a cache layer, exponential backoff, and JWT refresh. Result? 42% faster responses and 99.9% success rate. Lessons baked into our playbook.

Let’s Talk About the Messy Bits (and How We Handle Them)
App store rejection fears
We’ve seen avoidable rejections: missing privacy labels, vague metadata, clashing permissions. We run pre‑submission checklists, sanity‑check screenshots, and stage the rollout. Does it guarantee approval? No. Does it slash risk? Absolutely.
Budget & timeline anxiety
We lock scope early, report burn weekly, and break work into sprints you can actually see. If trade‑offs appear, you see them first.
Technical complexity
No waffle. We’ll explain options in plain English, share Loom walkthroughs, and document as we go. You shouldn’t need a CS degree to make good decisions.
Post‑launch reality
OS updates, SDK changes, new devices—stuff moves. We offer SLAs, scheduled updates, and proactive monitoring so stability doesn’t slide.
