AppDesign360 (Mango Consulting LLC) is a mobile app development company in Teaneck, NJ and Queens, NY. We build native iOS and Android apps in Swift and Kotlin, and cross-platform apps in Flutter and React Native, then handle App Store and Google Play submission. Fixed-price builds start at $12,000 and a scoped MVP ships in 8โ12 weeks; an App Blueprint (clickable prototype, technical spec, and fixed quote) starts at $2,500 for smaller budgets.
Most app projects go wrong before the first line of code: the scope is vague, the budget is a guess, and nobody owns the App Store submission. We fix all three. Every project starts with a free 20-minute scoping call, gets a fixed price and a written timeline, and ends with your app live on both stores and the source code in a repository you own.
We are the engineers behind AppDesign360, the brand many New Jersey and New York businesses know from our earlier app and web work. Mango Consulting LLC is the legal entity: an SBA-certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business founded in 2018, based in Teaneck, NJ with headquarters in Queens, NY. Everyone on your build is US-based and works Eastern hours, so you can reach the person writing your code during your business day.
Why businesses in NJ and NYC hire us for apps
Fixed price, written scope. You get a number and a timeline before work starts, not an hourly meter that runs until the money is gone.
Both stores, handled. Apple Developer and Google Play Console setup, TestFlight and internal testing, listing metadata, screenshots, privacy labels, and review appeals.
You own everything. Source code, store accounts, backend, and domain are registered to your business from day one.
The right stack, not a default. Flutter or React Native when one codebase makes sense; native Swift and Kotlin when performance or hardware access demands it.
Backend included. Authentication, database, push notifications, payments, and an admin panel are part of the build, not a second vendor.
Local when it matters. Based in Teaneck and Queens, we meet in person by appointment across Bergen County, the five boroughs, and Fairfield County, CT.

How It Works
Week 0: free 20-minute scoping call, then a written scope, fixed price, and timeline
Weeks 1โ2: discovery, user flows, and a clickable UX/UI prototype you approve before code
Weeks 2โ10: two-week sprints with a build you can install on your phone at the end of each sprint
Weeks 9โ11: QA on real devices, TestFlight and Play internal testing, security review
Week 12: App Store and Google Play submission, launch checklist, handoff of code and accounts, 30 days of fixes
Most of our projects land between $12,000 and $60,000. A starter app on one platform runs $12,000โ$25,000, a business app or MVP for both iOS and Android runs $25,000โ$60,000, and a custom platform with integrations, offline sync, or health data runs $60,000โ$150,000 or more. You get a fixed price after a free 20-minute scoping call. If your budget is smaller, an App Blueprint ($2,500โ$5,000) gives you a clickable prototype, a technical spec, and a fixed quote you can use with any developer.
An App Blueprint: a discovery workshop, user flows, a clickable prototype of the core screens, a technical spec, and a fixed-price quote for the build, delivered in 1โ2 weeks for $2,500โ$5,000 and credited toward the build if you continue with us. If you are building the app yourself with AI tools, Vibe Coding Support sessions start at $125. A custom app build starts at $12,000; anyone offering a full custom app for $3,000 is selling a template or offshore hours with no ownership.
A starter app takes 6โ8 weeks, a scoped MVP 8โ12 weeks, and a custom platform 12โ20 weeks. Those timelines include design, development, testing on real devices, and store submission.
Cross-platform Flutter or React Native is right for most business apps: one codebase ships to both stores faster and costs less to maintain. Native Swift and Kotlin is right when you need camera-heavy features, Bluetooth hardware, AR, or maximum performance. We decide in discovery, not from a default stack.
Yes. We set up your Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts in your name, run TestFlight and internal testing, prepare listing metadata, screenshots, and privacy labels, submit for review, and handle any rejections.
You do, from day one. The code lives in a repository you own, store accounts and domains are registered to your business, and we hand over every admin credential at launch.
Yes. We start with a paid code review that documents the app, its risks, and a fix list, then continue with feature work or a rebuild depending on what the review finds.
Yes. Authentication, database, APIs, push notifications, payments, analytics, and an admin panel are part of the build. We typically use Node.js with PostgreSQL, or Firebase for smaller apps.
Yes, with HIPAA-aware architecture: encryption in transit and at rest, BAA-ready vendors, minimal data retention, and protected health information kept out of analytics and logs. Raise it on the scoping call and we will design for it from the start.
Yes. Mango Consulting LLC is the legal entity, an SBA-certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business. AppDesign360 is the brand we use for app and web work. Same engineers, same quote form at quote.appdesign360.com.
No. We are based in Teaneck, NJ and Queens, NY, and we meet clients in person by appointment across Bergen County, the five boroughs, and Fairfield County, CT. We also build for clients across the United States over video calls.
Every project includes 30 days of fixes. After that, choose a monthly support retainer or pay for changes at our custom software rate, from $25 per hour. For retainer clients we also monitor crash reports and store reviews.
