appcuisine GmbH

Apps cooked from concept to store

Hannover, Germany, is where appcuisine GmbH works, an agency that has made apps since 2010. It describes its aim as more than building a product or launching an app: the goal is traffic, customers and revenue. The agency says it does not stop at delivering a functional or attractive app and leaving the client alone in the store, but goes further to turn a good app into a successful one.

It accompanies clients from the first idea to a finished product. The process starts with shared concept work, continues with user experience design and user interface design, and ends with an interactive prototype that lets the client test how the app will work.

Cross-platform and native development

For cross-platform projects, appcuisine works with Google's Flutter and with React Native. For native apps it builds for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch in Swift and Objective-C, and for Android it uses Java and Kotlin. The agency also supports apps through the App Store and Play Store and hosts them on Microsoft Azure or Google Firebase, with analytics included.

Certifications and partnerships

The company holds ISO 9001:2015 certification, employs ISTQB certified testers and runs certified Scrum teams. It is also a Microsoft partner. The agency states that quality is part of its core make-up and central to its work.

Clients from start-ups to large corporations

Work ranges from small start-ups to SMEs and large corporate clients. The agency cites a patient app for a DAX-listed group and a contact-tracing app as examples, saying it brings experience from both small and large projects. It also mentions connected device work with Arduino, ESP32 and Raspberry Pi hardware, and it describes more than ten years of app development experience.

Design with the user at the centre

The agency says its passion is for the user as much as for the code, and that the experience of people using an app comes first. Its design work is presented as a mix of creativity and an understanding of how each platform's users behave. The company says this emphasis is what separates its apps from those built only for function.
