Mobile apps for businesses in Iași — iOS and Android, delivered in 3–10 weeks
Looking for someone to build the mobile app for your business in Iași? That's me. I'm a developer based in Fălticeni, Suceava county, about two hours away, and I build cross-platform apps (a single codebase for iOS and Android), with backend included, publishing in the App Store and Google Play. Three apps already shipped with real users — colet.app (courier management platform with 1000+ orders processed weekly, 5 connected order sources), Ami Tour App (RO-UK courier on React Native), RO-VA Tours (multi-platform iOS/Android/PWA for parcel transport). For Iași clients I work mostly online plus 1-2 on-site visits per project, no extra travel cost.
The real problem: your customers in Iași look for you on their phone, but you don't have an app
Take a moment and run a test. Search Google on your phone for “dental practice booking Iași”, “food order Copou”, “restaurant reservation Centru Iași”, “parcel transport Pașcani”, “gym subscription Tătărași”, “medical clinic booking Galata”, “airport taxi Iași” or “pharmacy order Iași”. Then try to download the app of any of the first ten businesses that show up. You'll discover something: almost none have an app. Restaurants take orders on Facebook Messenger and the phone. Medical practices write appointments on paper. Transport companies call drivers for every new order. Local shops still do deliveries on slips of paper.
That's the daily reality across Iași, Pașcani, Târgu Frumos, Hîrlău and the rest of the county. And it's a huge opportunity for your business. Iași is a city of 350,000+ people, with students, professionals, entrepreneurs and families with phones in hand all day long. In 2026 people don't call anymore — they want to tap a button in an app. They want to see where their parcel is, when their appointment is, what the order costs, with a single tap. The companies that offer that are winning customers the competition is losing daily, without even noticing.
The reality on your side as a business: orders written down in Excel, drivers who don't know what they're delivering today until they call dispatch in the morning, appointments lost because the secretary didn't hear the phone, hotel receptionists taking reservations on paper, transport dispatchers spending hours sorting manually. All of these repetitive, manual, expensive processes can become digital. A well-built mobile app isn't a marketing fad — it's a tool that makes your team more efficient and your customers happier.
What a good mobile app means in 2026: one that's fast, runs perfectly on four-to-five-year-old phones, works offline for the essentials, has notifications that actually arrive on time, syncs in the background with your website or admin panel, ships cleanly into the App Store and Google Play, and lets you push updates without going through Apple or Google review every time you change a string or a price.
That's what I build for businesses in Iași and the wider Moldova region: cross-platform apps on React Native or Capacitor (one codebase, two stores), backend included in the package (database, API, authentication), publishing in the App Store and Google Play. Pricing starts at RON 7,000 (about €1,400) for an iOS + Android app with backend included — the exact price is set after the first call, depending on how complex the flows are and how many distinct roles you need. Delivery takes 3–5 weeks for a standard app and 6–10 weeks for a more complex platform with advanced backend. Payment is simple: 50% on confirmation, 50% on delivery. Most of the work happens online; I come on site 1-2 times if the project requires physical presence.
What you get from me — a complete app, ready to ship
I don't just build the mobile part and leave you to find someone else for the server and the admin panel. The standard package includes everything you need to publish and run the app, end to end.
Validation through a fast prototype
Before you invest in a full app, I build a working prototype you can put in front of customers or your team to test the hypothesis. If the idea doesn't pan out, you've lost a few thousand lei, not tens of thousands. Honest validation, not pseudo-research with surveys.
Cross-platform — iOS and Android from one codebase
I use React Native or Capacitor (the choice depends on the project) to build a single codebase that runs on both platforms. Cost drops by roughly 40% compared to two separate native apps, with no meaningful performance loss for most use cases.
Full and secure backend
Database, authentication, strict isolation between tenants (Row Level Security for multi-company apps), server-side functions for sensitive logic. I use Supabase for development speed or custom solutions when the project demands it. You don't deal with the technical side — I take care of hosting and configuration.
Targeted push notifications
Apps that show up at the right moment — new order for the driver, confirmed appointment for the patient, ready delivery for the client. Notifications that actually reach the user, not the silent kind nobody sees.
Integration with the phone's hardware
Camera (for AWB or document scanning), GPS (for delivery tracking), barcode scanner, Apple Pay and Google Pay, digital signature on delivery. Anything the phone can do, your app can do — without buying dedicated hardware.
Multi-company architecture when needed
If you want a platform to sell to multiple businesses (like colet.app), I build the architecture from the start with strict data isolation — each company sees only its data but shares the same infrastructure. That means lower cost and simpler operations long-term.
Publishing in the App Store and Google Play
I handle the entire publishing process: developer account (or we use yours), screenshots, store-search-optimized description (basic ASO), privacy forms, code signing, Apple and Google review. Your app appears officially in the stores, accessible to anyone searching for it from Iași or anywhere else.
Updates without re-publishing (OTA)
For apps built on Capacitor, content and logic changes reach users in minutes, without waiting two weeks for Apple review. Change a string, a price, a rule — the user sees the change the next time they open the app.
When needed: I add specialized components without sending you to another vendor — a WhatsApp AI agent that creates orders by chat (like colet.app), integration with your existing site (or I build a new one on the same infrastructure, see /creare-site-iasi), an advanced web admin panel, integration with accounting or invoicing systems, plus monthly app updates.
Transparent pricing
Official pricing, exactly as it appears on the pricing page. Payment is split in two: 50% on confirmation, 50% on delivery. All packages include a free consultation, 3 design directions to choose from, 30 days of free support and legal invoicing. For Iași clients: we work online plus 1-2 on-site visits if the project needs it, no extra travel cost.
Why me, not an Upwork freelancer or a Bucharest agency
There are mobile developers everywhere. There are also developers who deliver 80% of the app and then disappear right before App Store publishing. Here's what you get when you work with me instead.
I'm from Moldova — Fălticeni, Suceava county
I live in Fălticeni, about two hours from Iași. For larger projects I can come to your office 1-2 times — for the kickoff and the final review or for testing on real phones. The rest of the work happens online, no extra travel cost. I'm in the same time zone, I speak your Romanian, and I reply in hours, not days.
Apps shipped, not just promised
Three apps with real users and numbers verifiable directly on the portfolio pages: colet.app (1000+ orders processed weekly, 5 connected order sources, 25+ stops per route optimized with Google Maps, 100% financial management), Ami Tour App (RO-UK courier built on React Native, digital order requests and AWB tracking), RO-VA Tours (multi-platform iOS, Android and PWA for parcel transport). I can demo any of them live.
Solo, accelerated by AI — fair pricing
I work alone, accelerated by AI (Claude Code and similar tools). You pay for the work, not for offices in Pipera, not for project managers who keep you warm on the phone. That means fast delivery, direct communication and an honest quote based on the real complexity of your project rather than capital-agency overhead.
End-to-end — mobile, backend, web panel, everything
I build the entire ecosystem, not just the visible part. The mobile app, the server, the database, the web admin panel, integrations with other systems — all with the same technical style and the same person responsible. You don't go hunt for two or three more vendors after I'm done.
Real case: colet.app, a platform for courier companies
The most concrete example I can show right now is colet.app — a platform I built from scratch for courier companies in Romania, with real users and daily operations. Routes it serves include the Iași–northern Moldova area, alongside international routes.
The market for small and mid-sized courier companies ran on Excel, WhatsApp and the phone. Orders were typed into spreadsheets, drivers got addresses by phone in the morning, there was no tracking for the end customer, and dispatchers spent hours daily on manual sorting. Errors came naturally — parcels delivered to wrong addresses, drivers who didn't know what they had to do, customers calling ten times a day to ask where their package was.
I built colet.app — a complete platform for courier companies with three pieces: the mobile app for customers (parcel requests, real-time tracking with a branded link per company), the mobile app for drivers (Google Maps-optimized routes with 25+ stops per run, delivery confirmations, AWB scanning), the web panel for the dispatcher (sorting, assignment, financial module). Orders come in from five different sources connected to a single platform: admin, driver, the company's website, the customer's mobile app, plus a WhatsApp AI agent that automatically extracts addresses and weight from messages and creates the order. Data isolated per company — own branding, independent settings. Tech stack: React, TypeScript, Supabase, Google Maps API, WhatsApp Cloud API, Claude Haiku, Capacitor, iOS.
Numbers verifiable directly on the colet.app portfolio page: 5 order sources connected to a single platform, 25+ stops per route optimized with Google Maps, over 1000 orders processed weekly, 100% automated financial management (settlements, balances, weekly reports), new-company setup in under 30 minutes. Plus the other two apps shipped for businesses in the area: Ami Tour App (RO-UK courier built on React Native, digital orders and AWB tracking) and RO-VA Tours (multi-platform iOS, Android and PWA for parcel and refrigerated transport RO↔UK) — each built on the same principles: cross-platform, full backend, store publishing, ongoing support.
How I work — from first message to launch
The process is clear and predictable. Here's how a typical engagement runs, from the first message to your app published in the App Store and Google Play.
Initial conversation
30 minutes by phone or on Google Meet. For Iași clients we can also meet at your office, by appointment. You tell me what business you have, what problem the app solves, who its users are (customers, employees, or both). I tell you straight whether an app is the right answer (sometimes it isn't — sometimes a good website does more, see /creare-site-iasi) and estimate the cost. Free, no obligation.
Prototype and interactive design
You get 2–3 design variants and a prototype you can open on your phone, before any code is written. You see how navigation works, where you tap, what each screen looks like. You decide with your team whether the structure is right or what needs to change.
Weekly sprints with demos
I work in one-week cycles. At the end of each week you have the app on your phone (TestFlight for iOS, Internal track for Google Play) and can see exactly what's been done. Payment is split in two: 50% on confirmation, 50% on delivery — bank transfer, legal invoice.
Beta testing with your team
Before official publishing, the app goes through real testing with your team or a small group of customers in Iași. You tell me what doesn't work, what's unclear, what needs adjusting. This stage is included, not billed separately.
Publishing, training and 30 days support
I handle publishing in the App Store and Google Play (Apple and Google reviews take 1–7 days). Then I show you how to push content changes via OTA if the project uses Capacitor. The first 30 days after publishing are included — fixes, small adjustments, monitoring, no extra cost.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a mobile app cost for a business in Iași?
From RON 7,000 (about €1,400). The base package includes iOS and Android from a single codebase, backend (database, API, authentication), push notifications and publishing in the App Store and Google Play. The exact price depends on complexity — I'll explain on the first call what's in the package and what may be extra. Payment is split in two: 50% on confirmation, 50% on delivery.
Do you work with Iași companies if you're based in Fălticeni?
Yes, no problem. I'm about two hours from Iași. Most of the collaboration runs online — Google Meet, email, TestFlight links, Internal track on Google Play, WhatsApp. For projects that require presence (kickoff meeting, real-phone testing with your team, store screenshots, final training) I come to Iași 1-2 times, no extra travel cost. This way of working is standard in 2026 — I have clients much further (HarmonicSAR in Italy, RO-VA Tours on Romania-UK routes), so two hours from Fălticeni to Iași isn't an issue.
How long does the build take?
3–5 weeks for a standard app. 6–10 weeks for a more complex platform with advanced backend and multiple roles. We start within 24–48h of confirmation. You get a weekly demo, so you don't wait until the end to see where we are.
What tech do you use and why does it matter?
I use React Native or Capacitor for the mobile app (cross-platform — one codebase, two stores), Supabase for the backend (Postgres plus authentication plus server-side functions) or custom solutions when the project demands it. That means roughly 40% lower development cost compared to separate native apps, with no visible performance difference for the end user.
How do you publish the app in the App Store and Google Play?
I handle the entire process. We use your Apple developer account ($99/year) and Google ($25 one-time), or we create them together. I prepare screenshots, the search-optimized description, privacy forms, code signing, binary uploads. Apple and Google reviews take 1–7 days — then the app is public. The developer accounts are legally yours, but the logistics are on me.
Can I have a mobile app without a website yet?
Yes. Many businesses start with an app instead of a site (for example courier companies that sell only through B2B contracts). If you want a website later, I build it on the same infrastructure (see /creare-site-iasi) at a discount — you don't pay twice for authentication, database or backend.
