Mobile App Development Bristol.

iOS and Android apps for Bristol businesses — built to a fixed price, delivered on time. We write purpose-built mobile software using Swift, Kotlin, React Native and Flutter, from MVPs to full production platforms.


// what we build

Mobile apps we build for Bristol businesses.

Bristol's aerospace, creative tech, sustainability and fintech sectors generate specific requirements for mobile software. We work across all these use cases at fixed price.

iOS & Android

Consumer & Marketplace Apps

App Store and Google Play apps with user authentication, in-app purchases, push notifications, and social features. From MVP to full launch — fixed price from £12,000.

B2B Field Apps

Internal & Field Worker Tools

Apps for your team in the field — logistics tracking, inspection forms, inventory management, offline-first design. Works with or without internet connectivity.

MVP

Startup MVPs

Lean, testable mobile products to validate your idea before full investment. Our MVPs typically launch in 8–12 weeks from £8,000 — enough to get real user feedback.

Cross-Platform

React Native & Flutter Apps

Share 85–95% of code between iOS and Android with React Native or Flutter. Near-native performance, lower cost, faster iteration — the smart choice for most business apps.

Native Swift / Kotlin

Performance-Critical Native Apps

When your app needs full hardware access — camera, sensors, AR — or demands the absolute best performance, we go native. Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android.

IoT & Hardware

IoT & Connected Device Apps

Companion apps for hardware, Bluetooth integration, sensor data visualisation and remote device management. We've built logistics trackers and real-time fleet dashboards.

// platforms & technology

Native and cross-platform development.

We choose the right platform for your goals — not the one easiest for us to build.

Bristol mobile app development FAQ

How much does mobile app development cost in Bristol?

Mobile app development for Bristol businesses starts from £8,000. Creative tech and sustainability apps often benefit from thoughtful UX investment, bringing mid-range projects to £20,000–£35,000. Fintech and aerospace-adjacent tooling with compliance needs can reach £40,000–£60,000. Mantar Tech provides fixed-price quotes — honest, upfront, no surprises.

Can you build sustainable tech or green economy apps for Bristol clients?

Absolutely. Bristol is one of the UK's leading cities for green economy and clean tech innovation. We've helped clients build data platforms, reporting dashboards and customer-facing apps that serve sustainability-focused businesses. The tech stack is the same — the mission is different and we embrace it.

React Native or Flutter — which is better?

Both are excellent for most business apps. React Native suits teams already using JavaScript/React — it has a larger ecosystem and easier web integration. Flutter is Google-backed with exceptional UI consistency and animation control. We'll recommend the right one for your project during discovery. We've shipped production apps with both.

Can you take over a mobile app someone else started?

Yes, with conditions. We always review the existing codebase first. If the architecture is clean and maintainable we can take it over. If there are serious structural issues we'll flag them honestly before committing. We'll never hide a problem to win a project.

Do you handle App Store and Google Play submissions?

Yes — App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android) submissions are included in the project scope. We manage the submission process, respond to reviewer questions and guide you through any App Store review feedback.

Do I own the source code?

100% ownership of all source code, assets and intellectual property transfers to you on completion. You receive Git repository access from day one and can take development elsewhere at any time — zero lock-in.
