Our Approach to Mobile App Development

At Glance, we place the user at the core of our development process, ensuring that every app is not only appealing but also strategically aligned with our clients’ business objectives. Our approach goes beyond traditional development by focusing on psychological underpinnings, which sets us apart in the crowded market of mobile app development. This user-centric methodology not only enhances the app's appeal but also its effectiveness, leading to greater user engagement and retention.

Enhancing Mobile Experience

 Improving overall app quality and user satisfaction.

Increasing User Engagement

Designing features based on behavioural insights to boost user return rates.

Boosting User Retention

Creating mechanisms within apps that promote long-term user loyalty.

Case Study

The Times

Due to the history of The Times newspaper, the app version had to imitate the print edition as closely as possible. Performance and efficiency was critical to delivering an engaging and fluid reading experience so new caching and navigation techniques were developed especially for this project.

Case Study

Canon UST

Originally intended as a back-office training tool, the Canon UST was such a hit that it was released to the general public. The app and CMS allowed Canon to showcase different features of their cameras and allow people to learn key concepts by ‘using’ the cameras in a virtual setting.

Case Study

CHANEL

The Christmas Hamper app for CHANEL was one of three we produced, with this one being deployed in their Regent Street store in London. Placed at the store entrance to entice shoppers to purchase a customised gift hamper for their loved ones, the app was highly intuitive and tactile.
