Why UK Businesses Choose Mtoag for iPad App Development
Three things that separate us from every other agency in the UK.
Fixed-Price. No Surprises.
Before writing a line of code, we produce a Technical Specification — a fixed-price, fixed-scope document listing every feature, integration, and delivery milestone. You sign it. We build it. The price you sign is the price you pay.
150+ In-House Engineers. No Subcontractors.
100% of Mtoag's engineering work is done by direct employees — never freelancers, never agencies, never offshore subcontractors. Your senior developer has worked at Mtoag for an average of 4+ years.
Full IP Ownership from Day One.
Your source code, design files, and all intellectual property transfer to you on final payment. We sign an NDA before any technical discussion. No vendor lock-in.
The Tech Stack That Powers Our Solutions
Sixteen years of production experience across mobile, web, enterprise, open-source, and search — every technology below is one we ship for UK clients, not just list on a page.
From native performance to cross-platform speed, we build mobile experiences that feel first-class on every device.
Modern, fast, accessible websites and web apps built on frameworks that scale with your business, not against it.
Enterprise-grade architecture built for security, compliance, and systems that need to talk to each other reliably.
Proven open-source platforms customised and hardened for real commercial traffic — not a stock install.
Technical SEO built into the codebase from day one — because rankings are an engineering outcome, not a marketing add-on.
All versions current as of July 2026. We track and adopt major releases within 90 days.
iPad App Development Case Studies
All projects live in production since launch.
Our iPad App Development Process
The same six-step process on every project. No improvising. No scope creep. No surprises.
Discovery and Technical Scoping
A structured 45-minute discovery call followed by a written Technical Specification defining every feature, integration, performance target, and accessibility requirement. You review and sign it before we charge a penny.
Architecture and Prototype
Technical architecture decisions and a working prototype covering the core user flows, so decisions are validated before full development begins.
Agile Development and Build
Two-week sprints with a live staging environment accessible 24/7. Weekly video demos and Slack access to your project manager. All code reviewed by a senior engineer before it merges.
Quality Assurance Testing
Automated unit and integration testing, manual regression testing, and a full accessibility and performance audit before anything ships to production.
Launch and Monitoring
Zero-downtime deployment with instant rollback capability. Performance monitored for 30 days post-launch, with fixes included in the launch fee.
Support and Ongoing Development
Post-launch SLA options from 8-hour response to 24/7 monitoring. Monthly security patches, dependency updates, and performance reports. Ongoing feature development available on sprint retainer.
All timelines are fixed in the Technical Specification.

iPad App Development Questions Answered
10 direct answers. No sales language.
iPad app development in the UK is typically quoted as a fixed project price after scoping, ranging from £15,000 for a focused single-purpose app to £60,000+ for a multi-window productivity app with Apple Pencil and CloudKit sync. Mtoag provides a fixed quote from a written Technical Specification.
Yes, significantly. A true iPad app uses adaptive layouts, supports Split View and Slide Over multitasking, and often integrates Apple Pencil — not just a stretched iPhone interface. Mtoag designs iPad-specific layouts from the first wireframe, not as an afterthought.
Yes. Mtoag integrates PencilKit for drawing, annotation, and handwriting recognition with pressure and tilt sensitivity, tuned for low-latency ink rendering so strokes feel instant rather than delayed.
Yes. Mtoag builds resizable, multi-window support and external display handling as standard for iPad productivity apps, so your app behaves correctly across every windowing configuration iPadOS supports.
A focused single-purpose iPad app takes 6–10 weeks from kick-off to App Store submission. Complex productivity apps with Apple Pencil, multi-window support, and CloudKit sync take 10–16 weeks. Every project receives a fixed timeline in the Technical Specification.
Yes, if scoped for it. Mtoag builds offline-first architecture using Core Data or SwiftData with CloudKit sync, so your app remains fully functional without a connection and reconciles data automatically once reconnected.
Yes. Every Mtoag iPad app includes App Store Connect setup, review guideline compliance, TestFlight beta distribution, and ASO-optimised store copy and screenshots as part of the standard delivery.
Yes, 100%. All Swift source code, design files, and App Store assets created for your project belong to you from day one, written into every Mtoag contract as standard.
Yes. Mtoag builds universal apps with adaptive SwiftUI layouts that scale correctly between iPhone and iPad, or dedicated iPad-only apps when the use case calls for a large-screen-first design.
Every project includes a 30-day post-launch support window covering bug fixes at no extra cost. Ongoing maintenance, iOS version compatibility updates, and feature development are available on a monthly retainer after that window closes.
