A true story
From an app we built

01A rural hospital. A cardiovascular emergency.

02The paper protocol can’t be found.

03The physician opens an app. One we built.

04Treatment starts. The transfer runs through the app.

“A rural physician utilized a protocol within the app… and successfully started treatment and transferred the patient (via the app) to us for emergent life-saving surgery.”Mark Ebeling, Patient Care Manager, Allina Health Minneapolis Heart Institute

Who is Dogtown Media?

Who we are

Dogtown Media is a disruptive mobile app development company creating cutting edge cross platform apps to solve everyday problems, simplify frustrating activities, and bring endless enjoyment into the palm of your hand. Founded by a team of hardened tech veterans familiar with the twists and turns of cross platform app development, we stand out from the growing crowd of mobile app development companies with fierce pride in professionalism and perfectionism to design, program, and deploy top tier mobile apps.

Our software development company has helped clients across myriad industries at different points in their mobile development. From VC-backed startups to Fortune 500 companies and burgeoning entrepreneurs, our software development teams have the ideal mix of tech knowledge and design talent to deliver custom apps that stand out from the crowd. When it comes to mobile application development services, we always strive to deliver best in class solutions. For this purpose, we carefully consider the specific requirements of your project before selecting the framework for each Android, iOS, or cross platform development project.

How does an app project run?

How we work

Defining the Scope

Every Android or iOS app development project needs a roadmap, whether the starting point is an app idea or a pre-existing app.

A dedicated team of experienced developers with solid expertise across multiple platforms will work with you to define each part of the mobile app development process. That means defining feature sets, programming languages, deciding on platforms, and ensuring the android, iOS or web app has a stable performance and can ship within the required timeframe.

UI/UX Design

With a solid plan in place we get to work drawing up wireframes and mapping the user experience (UX). Our user interface (UI) designers pick it up from there to create the graphical elements, branding assets, and style guide.

Development

At this point our team of iPad, Android and iPhone app developers step in to bring your vision to life. When developing apps, setting up the databases, core logic, and dynamic screen behaviors ensure your users have a fast, seamless, and immersive experience. By maintaining a clear roadmap, the project manager ensures that the project stays on track and that each mobile app developer involved is aligned and informed throughout the process.

Launch

Submitting your iPhone app to the iTunes app store or Android app to Google Play is an art form in itself.

We work closely with your team to ensure that marketing material, graphics, and app assets are ready for public launch.

App submissions to the iTunes App Store can take up to 10 business days before being approved for public distribution. Android apps submitted to the Google Play app store are usually available to the public within a few hours of being submitted.

Why work with Dogtown Media?

Why It’s Worth Working With Dogtown Media

Mobile technology and devices are being used more and more widely every day and businesses are taking advantage of the latest tech solutions to grab the attention of potential customers and capture a large part of the market share.

Could you develop your own mobile application to improve your business operations? Absolutely. The rapid uptake of cloud-native solutions and self-service platforms makes it possible to create an application from scratch. If you have a substantial and skilled team backed by big enough budgets to design, develop, deploy, secure and manage native apps, hybrid apps or progressive web apps at scale, DIY development may be a good choice.

However, if you’re looking to streamline the process, save costs and deliver a mobile software application that stands out from the crowd, you need Dogtown Media services. Our team has the expertise you need to produce fully-fledged, stable, and scalable mobile applications. Benefits of working with Dogtown include:

AI-Powered Mobile Innovation

You don't need a whole new system to provide cutting-edge AI tools to your employees and users. Our team specializes in integrating AI technologies into your existing infrastructure for improved efficiency, performance, and decision-making.

Improved Mobile App Security Services

Dogtown’s development teams aren’t just experts in design and deployment. They also have the skills needed to improve data security across your app, from data at rest to information in transit and in use.

Built for Compliance

When developing mHealth apps, ensuring HIPAA compliance protects your patients' sensitive information while shielding your organization against the consequences of regulatory breaches. Dogtown Media's mHealth app development experts have extensive industry knowledge and a deep understanding of HIPAA and FDA-adjacent rules, enabling us to build your platform with compliance at its core.

Increased Mobile App Quality

Are we an iPhone app development company? Yes. Are we an Android app development company? Also yes. More relevant than platform, however, is quality and performance. Dogtown developers are well-versed in the latest programming and design techniques to ensure the application you get is exactly the one you want.

Reduced Mobile App Costs

Take control of your costs with Dogtown. Our teams work with your company to define the scope and scale of your project, in turn helping you set realistic budgets and keep project spending on track over time.

Ongoing Mobile App Support Services

Apps don’t exist in a vacuum. Updates to existing platforms or the need for new features speak to the need for ongoing support and maintenance. Dogtown is on your side with continual coverage.
