Mobile app development
company, USA.
Native iOS, Android and cross-platform apps for US businesses, from a team with an office in Miami and a working day that overlaps the East Coast morning.
Mobile app development
in the USA.
Mobile app development in the USA with Magora: a first release in 6–8 weeks, developers from £49/hour (about $65) and a full team with QA and product ownership for £65–£70/hour (about $86–$93). Every project starts with a free working prototype in 5–10 working days, then a two-week discovery from £3,000 (about $3,970). Our London day (09:00–18:00 UK time) is 04:00–13:00 Eastern, so the working days overlap from 09:00 to 13:00 ET.

How it works
from the USA.
Time zones, contact and contracts, set out plainly.
Eastern Time overlap
Our London day (09:00–18:00 UK time) is 04:00–13:00 Eastern, so the working days overlap from 09:00 to 13:00 ET. Pacific Time is eight hours behind London: West Coast calls go at the start of your day.
Miami office
Our US office is at 17001 Collins Avenue, Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160, on Eastern Time. Headquarters and the main engineering team are in London.
You own it
An NDA on day one, the repository in your name from the first commit, and full ownership of code, designs and IP on payment.
Built for
the USA.
What changes when your users and data are in the USA. We design for these requirements; your counsel or auditor signs them off.
Health data
Apps that handle protected health information are designed for HIPAA from the start: access control, audit logs and US-region hosting.
Privacy laws
Consent and data-subject requests designed for CCPA/CPRA and the other state privacy laws, plus COPPA if children use the app.
Accessibility
Built to WCAG 2.2 AA so the app works with VoiceOver and TalkBack, which also lowers ADA risk.
Payments
Apple Pay, Google Pay and Stripe, so card data stays with PCI-compliant processors, never on your servers.
