Are All Apps Created Equal?
Actually no. There are two distinct types of apps available today... native apps and progressive web apps (PWAs).
Native Apps are the classic apps that you download from an app store. They are feature rich and highly usable. However...
The huge problem for businesses with native apps is getting people to search the app store, download their app and install it.
Statistics show the drop off rate is large and many potential customers just don't do it.
Contrast that with the latest Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) where users experience a feature rich and highly usable app through their web browser. Just tap to save the app to your device's home screen. No searching, no downloading, no installing and no waiting.
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) Development
- Reliable: Loads instantly, either online or offline.
- Fast: Responds quickly and works smoothly.
- Engaging: Full of features and a great user experience.
- Easier User Uptake: No need to search for and download any app software.
- One App Fits All: No need to develop separate apps for iPhone and Android.
Don't Be Left Behind
The modern business environment is constantly changing. Businesses need to be able to quickly adapt in order to ensure they remain relevant within this dynamic market.
Modern business moves at such an alarming rate. If you are not on board with the latest technologies and advancements, then you will quickly be left behind.
Reach ALL Customers And Users
The success of your business can come down to the details that define the difference between success and failure. It is imperative that a business reaches their target audience and this can be achieved with a well developed app that is tailored to their specific needs.
Invest In A Mobile App That Works
We spend more time on our phones than we do our desktops and our world has become dominated by mobile technology. By investing in a mobile app for your business you are presenting customers or clients with an added avenue to interact with you and your business.
Advantages
There are many advantages that come with developing your very own business app. A well designed and developed business app enables you to:
- Offer your users the latest app experience
- Increase user engagement
- Build customer and staff satisfaction
- Improve operating efficiencies
- Generate more sales and revenue
- Streamline processes
- Save on materials
- Enter data more efficiently
- Maintain an advantage over your competitors
The Nano Solutions Approach
At Nano Solutions we're platform agnostic. Android or iOS, it doesn't matter to us.
We will build you a beautiful and functional native app on whichever platform you choose. Or, a cutting edge progressive web app (PWA) to reach even more of your audience or target customers.
Using our pragmatic approach to business, we develop apps that not only work flawlessly, but also look and present beautifully.
Real World Example
Nano Solutions together with Surf Life Saving Australia developed the Beachsafe App.
The goal of this app was to promote safety awareness, provide users with expert advice about surf conditions and warn of the dangers that low-lying reefs and rip currents present.
The search function enables visitors to find the right beach based on location, conditions, facilities and lifesaving services. They can receive up-to-date information about surf reports, weather, signs, flags and alerts.

Our App Development Process
- Discovery & Strategy: We define your app's purpose, target audience, and key features. This phase includes competitor analysis, user persona development, and technical feasibility assessment.
- UX/UI Design: Wireframes and interactive prototypes let you experience the app before development begins. We design for usability, accessibility, and your brand identity.
- Development: Agile sprints with regular demos ensure you see progress throughout. We build for both platforms simultaneously using cross-platform frameworks or native code as appropriate.
- Quality Assurance: Device testing across iOS and Android, performance testing, security auditing, and user acceptance testing ensure your app works flawlessly at launch.
- Launch & Distribution: We handle App Store and Google Play submissions, including metadata optimisation, screenshot preparation, and compliance with store guidelines.
- Post-Launch Support: Ongoing updates, bug fixes, analytics monitoring, and feature enhancements keep your app relevant and performant.
