What we do
From the first sketch to the App Store launch — and every update after that — one team designs, builds and grows your app.
Native iPhone, iPad and Mac apps in Swift and SwiftUI, built end to end: architecture, on-device data, sync, subscriptions and widgets.
User flows, interfaces and clickable prototypes that follow Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines, so your app feels familiar from the first tap.
A focused first version built around the one feature that matters, on the App Store early enough to learn from real users.
Keywords, titles, screenshots and store pages that help people find your app — methods we test on our own listings first.
Your app and its store page in the languages your users read, with String Catalogs, localized screenshots and right-to-left support.
Yearly iOS updates, crash fixes, new features and App Review follow-up for apps that are already live.
The same way every time: short cycles, a TestFlight build at each milestone, and no surprises.

Updates & ASO
Proof, not promises
Pill reminders, lap timers, dive logs, wine cellars, Mac tools for developers: every app in our catalogue is designed, built, translated and maintained by the studio. Every technique we offer you, we have tested on them first.
In the spotlight
Health
Reminders, tracking, and clear history for every medication
Pillio is an iPhone app by Develak that reminds you to take medications and vitamins, logs every dose, and keeps a clear history for you, your family, or the people you care for.
Seizure diary
Bonsai care & log
Cigar cellar & aging
To-do & reminder
Lap timer & telemetry
Health, sport, hobbies, productivity and Mac developer tools.
The studio
Develak is an independent iOS app studio. We design, build and publish native apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac.
One studio covers the whole path: product design, Swift and SwiftUI code, App Store pages, localization and the updates that follow. We bring that craft to client projects, working remotely with founders and teams worldwide, in English and French.
Why native
Because native apps feel right on iPhone. They launch fast, follow Apple’s conventions, work with VoiceOver and Dynamic Type, and get new iOS features the day they ship — no bridge, no compromise.
import SwiftUI
import SwiftData
@Model
final class Dose {
var name: String
var time: Date
var taken = false
init(name: String, time: Date) {
self.name = name
self.time = time
}
}
struct TodayView: View {
// Every dose of the day, kept in sync by SwiftData
@Query(sort: \Dose.time) private var doses: [Dose]
var body: some View {
List(doses) { dose in
Toggle(dose.name, isOn: Bindable(dose).taken)
.sensoryFeedback(.success, trigger: dose.taken)
}
.navigationTitle("Today")
}
}SwiftData keeps every record on the device, or in the user’s own iCloud account, with accurate privacy manifests.
A native list in compiled Swift: quick launches and smooth scrolling, up to 120 Hz on ProMotion displays.
A native toggle: VoiceOver announces it as a switch, and Dynamic Type, Dark Mode and Reduce Motion just work.
One line adds haptic feedback. Widgets, Live Activities and App Intents arrive the same way, as soon as Apple ships them.

FAQ
Short, straight answers. Anything else? Write to us at contact@develak.com.
Develak is an independent iOS app studio. It designs, builds and publishes native iPhone, iPad and Mac apps in Swift and SwiftUI — for its own catalogue of 34 App Store apps and for clients worldwide.
It depends on the scope: the number of screens, the data to store and sync, subscriptions, integrations such as Apple Health, and how much design work is needed. After a first conversation, Develak sends you a written estimate broken down by milestone, so you know what each stage involves before anything starts.
A focused first version (MVP) usually takes a few weeks; a complete app with iCloud sync, subscriptions and widgets takes longer. Milestones are agreed before any code is written, and you can test each one on your own iPhone through TestFlight.
Native Swift and SwiftUI apps start faster, feel consistent with iOS and get new Apple features — widgets, Live Activities, Apple Health, App Intents — as soon as they ship. Cross-platform tools make sense when Android is a must from day one; for an iPhone-first product, native is usually the better long-term investment.
Apple platforms only: iPhone first, then iPad and Mac from the same Swift codebase when it makes sense. The studio also publishes Mac tools for developers, such as Xlocalize for translating Xcode String Catalogs.
Yes. Develak maintains and improves live apps: yearly iOS updates, bug and crash fixes, new features, App Store Optimization, and localization into new languages.
Yes. Develak works remotely with founders and companies worldwide, in English and French, and ships apps in up to 44 languages.
