About Appify Agency — iOS‑only, no fluff.
Founder‑led, blunt, and transparent. We build iPhone apps like businesses—not just code.
Origin story
I’m Christyan Costea. I sat on my first app idea for over a decade. When I finally built it, I learned what most agencies won’t tell you: features don’t win—execution does. Appify Agency exists to cut the noise and ship the smallest native experience that proves value, then compound it.
- Discovery & product strategy
- Swift/SwiftUI design systems
- Performance budgets & observability
- Onboarding & conversion optimisation
- App Store optimization & launch marketing
How we think
We’re an iOS app development agency that treats your time and budget like our own. We plan in weeks, not quarters. We write less code to prove more value. We believe in honest feedback: if something won’t move your KPI, we’ll say so and change it. We’re proud of our craft, but we’re prouder of outcomes: activation, retention, and sustainable revenue.
Our default path looks like this: map the business, define activation, design the smallest winning flow, instrument, and ship. Add performance budgets, accessibility, and privacy by default. Then run weekly experiments. That loop is how teams go from “good idea” to “real traction.”
If you want a vendor, there are cheaper options. If you want a partner who will challenge assumptions and ship with you, let’s talk.
