Hybrid App Development

What is Hybrid App Development?

Simultaneous creation of mobile applications for both iPhone and Android app users. A perfect way to launch your brand to success.

Hybrid apps are a mixture of both native and web solutions. The core of the application uses web technologies meaning it works across both iPhone & Android. Given the even split in Australia of Android & iPhone users, developing an app that operates across both app stores with the same code structure is particularly appealing. Your target market will consist of users who operate across a range of mobile devices, so utilising a hybrid app approach ensures you capture the largest possible opportunity. At Sharp Instincts, we can turn your idea into an innovative app that will increase your business’s exposure and help you connect with more people in your target market. We are familiar with all types of platforms including iOS, Android and Windows. We have the expertise, skills and knowledge in almost every leading technology, such as JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3 and others to deliver an innovative and fully customisable hybrid application.

We make it easy to develop apps for all operating systems so that they are easy to manage and update over time. We make it our mission to help ease the burden on app development, mobile SEO and implementing aspects of your digital marketing strategy. We understand that you are busy running your business, therefore we encourage you to leave the technical marketing elements to us. We will report to you on a regular basis and always seek your feedback and approval before we make something live. We act as your digital marketing partner and endeavour to generate long-term relationships so that we can help you grow your business.

How do we develop Hybrid Apps?

What do we get with Hybrid app development?

We build functional, state-of-the-art and user-friendly apps for organisations to connect with their visitors, customers and other stakeholders. Investing in a hybrid app is becomingly increasingly common because of the cost savings of building native app versions (both iOS & Android apps). Hybrid apps will allow you to still personalise your offering, connect your app to a back-end CMS and engage with your customers like never before. We integrate the hybrid app with your business operations or systems so that everything works together seamlessly, subsequently reducing costs and improving efficiency. An example of a successful hybrid app is Uber, which uses hybrid app development to power one of the world’s most popular apps.

Your app will, among many other things, retrieve accurate data from your servers, save settings for the user and provide a unique experience depending on the type of user they are. This level of customisation is important today when users value convenience, time and being treated with care. With growing levels of competition, innovative ways to engage with customers should be front of mind. We have recently helped many organisations build an apps for unique purposes that grow and improve their customer relationships. Examples of apps that can aid business include encouraging B2B customers to purchase more, engaging the local communities with available services and explaining a complex process visually. Think about how your business could benefit from the development and implementation of an app. You might create an app for internal warehouse management, staff resourcing, enabling returns of products, viewing how your items are made, tracking the delivery of your item, seeing the customisations you ordered to your goods being manufactured in real time and much more. Apps enable businesses to connect with their stakeholders in unique ways so remember to be creative and let us know how we can help!

Why should I develop a Hybrid app?

People prefer to receive a personalised service. When you receive a personalised experience, you appreciate the care that the organisation has taken to deliver the goods or services to you. This should not be any different to engaging with your users via an app. We make the act of engagement easy so that you can deliver a personalised user experience and stay in regular contact with your users through targeted messages, marketing and app updates. An app provides you with the opportunity to engage better with your users in a dedicated manner so that they continue to engage with your business long after the transaction is complete.

You might use the app to track loyalty points, redeem vouchers, link to a payments platform, offers GPS connectivity to navigate the customer the nearest click and collect point, send helpful reminders as businesses navigate through COVID-19, showcase new products to your best customers and much more. Your users can set their preferences for communications and this will help you to engage with your users in a targeted manner. Apps (when customers opt-in) help you to collect data that can be used to deliver targeted marketing, personalised offers and unique services. This data can also be used to improve customer service, product improvement, warehouse management and delivery times. There is so much that you can do with, and that can be gained from, apps!
