iOS app development in Dunedin.
IOS app development designed around the way a Dunedin team actually runs.
Dunedin runs on health, education and professional services, where every hour lost to paperwork is an hour away from students, patients and clients. We give it back.
From one-person trades to national organisations, we find the hours :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
Dunedin, up close.
Dunedin's economy is led by healthcare and social assistance, education and training, and professional, scientific and technical services, and the University of Otago contributes about 15 per cent of the city's GDP.
The University of Otago supports about 9 per cent of Dunedin's workforce. Otago Anniversary Day falls on on or near 23 March.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Apps built around how your staff and customers actually work, with personal information handled under the Privacy Act 2020.
- Serious breaches get reported
- Holidays Act until August 2028
- KiwiSaver now 3.5 per cent
Already buried in admin? We'll sort the first workflow for you :)
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*
*Illustrative, based on 9 hours a week of admin at a typical 80% automation rate. The calculator uses your own numbers.
One workflow.
In production.
In weeks.
What iOS app development covers
What changes for Dunedin teams after this lands: the work that used to need a person stays done, the work that needs a person gets done with their attention undivided.
- Native Swift where performance matters, cross-platform where it does not
- App Store review handled end to end, including the rejections
- Sign in with Apple, push, camera and offline handled properly
- TestFlight builds so your team tries it before your customers do
- No shelfware or licences you do not use
- No annual contracts
Good questions, answered
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. We ship to TestFlight in the first fortnight, so you hold the app before you commit to the build.
What if our Dunedin doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For iOS app development specifically, we typically run that work on Swift, SwiftUI, Expo, TestFlight, App Store Connect and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
How fast could we have iOS app development in production?
Eight to ten weeks for most Dunedin businesses. Faster if your data is in good shape and slower if we're untangling a legacy integration first. We'll give you a realistic number on the scoping call rather than the optimistic one.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
