Applaunch Switzerland is our studio in Bottighofen with 6 designers and 5 developers. We have deliberately specialized in what drives us: UI/UX design, game development and VR & AR – from the first concept to the finished application.
For large development projects we work hand in hand with our long-standing partner Applaunch GmbH in Munich. This combines the proximity of a Swiss studio with the capacity of a large development team.
We always advise you extensively on various ideas or possibilities and then discuss them together.
Feel free to contact us directly by phone, email or our contact form. Many customers have some basic questions at the beginning basic questions, which we may not have answered on our website. If desired, we will sign a confidentiality agreement before the project starts, so we can talk openly about your project.
After that, we can already give you a rough idea of how we would implement your project and how much effort it will take. The actual start is our design kickoff, where we define the strategy and the feature roadmap for the initial release together. In addition, you will receive a personal assessment of your idea. We have seen many projects outside of our agency work, which is why we focus on creating maximum added value for your target group when designing your platforms.
Every project starts with a design kickoff. There we boil down all your ideas for features, visual inspirations and every document you provide into a strategy for the initial release of your app. This strategy is the red line through everything we deliver – with the goal of creating the most cost-efficient, user-friendly and visually appealing release strategy for your app.
The outcome of the kickoff is a design roadmap with our prioritization of features – defined together with you.
After that, the design work begins:
What does cost-efficient mean? Not every part of an app needs a custom design. Responsive variants, third-party integrations, CMS systems or admin functionality deliberately do not receive a custom design, because custom designs increase the development effort. The industry provides standard modules for most of these solutions, and responsive layouts can easily be derived from the design with AI-assisted programming.
Finding this balance takes a lot of experience – and that's exactly why we are here: to help you find the best possible design to bootstrap efficient development.
Our team has worked on projects for startups, mid-sized companies and even DAX corporations – for very large projects together with our development partner Applaunch GmbH in Munich. This allows us to realize complex projects, some of which have a project duration of many months or even years.
However, the majority of our projects are within a framework of approx. 3-6 months. We can handle any type of project and do not shy away from a challenge. Before each project, we will show you projects that we have already implemented and will demonstrate our skills to you. We are completely self-financed, and our founder has been successfully implementing software projects of all kinds for more than 20 years.
Estimating the cost of an app development in advance in a lump sum turns out to be difficult, because: The Requirements vary from project to project.
We actively advise you on which features are really needed and can realize large development efforts at fair conditions together with our development partner.
Experience shows that app projects start in the lower 5-digit range. There have also been larger projects that we have managed over the years or are still managing. Maintain.
The costs do not differ with our wide range of customers. Even larger companies often look for the best price, and we can almost always offer it, while keeping the quality the same high.
The duration of the development depends on the scope of the requirements. However, we can already tell you after the first conversation directly tell you how long comparable projects have taken.
On average, the majority of all projects are completed between 3-5 months, although there are smaller, as well as also larger projects.
Some projects we have been maintaining for years, where here a first version already after a few weeks went live. The support continues as long as you want it or your project just needs it.

In software development, quality is the cornerstone of long-term project success. We too started small many years ago and had to learn and understand this process.
With more than 20 years of experience, we have optimized our internal processes to such an extent that sources of error are almost completely eliminated.
To ensure consistently high quality, we work as an experienced app agency with defined processes: our code goes through correction loops, is tested internally by employees and must be approved by the Project Manager to be approved.
In addition, we have defined our own standards of coding, which means that in advance Certain requirement criteria are met, even when new employees are working on a project.
These include:
It is entirely possible to have an app developed by a freelancer. However, software projects are often more complex than expected. Experience has shown that a single Web app developer / Android app developer / iOS app developerDeveloper quickly reaches its performance limits and can rarely take care of a project in the long term.
